Have to put my dog down...
13 years ago
Well..It's time. He's lived 15 years. 11 of which were with us. We had rescued him from abusive owners, who had left him in the basement, where he had been forced to eat rocks...
Now, at the end, he has a brain tumour and liver cancer..he isn't eating, his back legs are unable to support him, and we can tell he's in a lot of pain. Before he injures himself falling down stairs, and to stop his suffering...we have decided to put him down tomorrow, Wednesday, at 7:30 pm EST.
He has had a wonderful 11 years. He's been to 3 provinces, camping, had many Christmases....and many many more good times. He's eaten better then most dogs too. During the past few months, he hasn't been eating his dog food so, as the vet said, just feed him what he'll eat. So he's had steak, pasta, paté, pizza, fries.... and anything else he would eat. Even with this he kept losing weight. It's gotten to the point that he was shaking lately cause he is so hungry.
So while I am going to be beyond sad.....it has to be done, and I realize that. He will be in a better place, and without pain.
You have been my friend, my family for 11 years. <3 I'll miss you Niko.
