Making that call is the toughest thing to do. I feel for ya man, good luck. Google rainbow bridge if you don't already know about it. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been down that road several times and it's always horrible. I know he's your boy. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogs give you unconditional love for their lifetimes, then they rip your guts out when they leave. They're worth that end of life heartache I suppose. No sugar coating this part though... You are in my thoughts. I will raise a glass to Jake tonight and my cup of coffee to him this morning. He's been a good family member to you! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richieb Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Yes 'Heel my best thoughts also. And making "that" decision is the worst which like several others here I have made too. But even worse and one I still live with is Not making the correct decision and waking up on an Easter morning to find my Golden hadn't made it through the night. And I should have been there beside her and wasn't. Sucks badly --- Best 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
