My sweetest old dog isn’t doing well the last couple of days...:( His tumors are growing, he’s breathing heavily and he can’t hold up his pee anymore. He’s still such a good boy and tries to stand up and walk towards the garden to pee, but he can’t remember his way back and he needs help to lay down and stand up...:(
Our previous dog suffered too long and we don’t want that to happen again, so he will be getting euthanized on Monday...I’m really nervous and sad..
I took these photos today while he still had some strength..

Rawr... This same thing happened with my own small dog, minus the tumors. It's a sad thing to see but in this it is us who now takes care of them. Even though soon the little flame of his candle will soon be gently blown out, he will always love you, and be the best friend you ever had.
Go with him on Monday. Be there with him through it all. Whether it's something that crosses your mind or not, leave his collar on, too. It's okay to cry, but always remember that there is a certain joy from it that cannot be fulfilled elsewhere; You, and your family and friends perhaps, have provided for him perhaps all his life. Though I don't know how long you've had him for, but in the time he's been with you, all he's asked for is your love. Continue to give it, even to, through to the end, and beyond. He'll never truly be gone.
I had wrote a journal the morning that my own dog went to visit the vet for the last time. Right here, if you would like to read it at all. (Caution: 100% feels) http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/7790624/

How old is he? I'm sorry that hes suffering. Back when we had our old dog he had gotten attacked by a much larger one. The wounds were so bad we felt forced to put him down. Its for the best but personally I couldn't look at him in that state. Hope you can cope with the loss well.
I lost my companion of ten years as of the fifth of December; I know what you're going through. My only advice is to make sure you're as comfortable as possible with the time and place and situation you and your friend are in when you finally let them go. Treasure every moment you have left, and remember them fondly and know that you did not prolong suffering unnecessarily.
As a former vet tech---
Whatever you do, when the time comes, do not leave the room.
Be there for him, because he will wonder why you left before everything goes dark...
It's okay to cry. It's okay to lose it and collapse. We understand, and to hold that all in is detrimental.
The only thing pets want is love and comfort, and he needs to feel that as he goes to sleep; Now more than ever.

He looks like such a sweet boy. When I saw the thumbnail, even before I read the title, I was afraid the post was going to be something like this.
It's hard to see a loved one in pain, especially one as innocent as an animal, and so unable to discuss their discomfort and euthanasia. But we all suffer to some degree without it necessarily making life not worth living, so it's always going to be a best guess when it's gotten to the point where pain overshadows enjoyment.
Give him lots of love and let him know he's a good boy.

You have my deepest, most painful sympathies. It's the right thing to do, certainly, but it's never easy to put one down.
As sphynxpunk said, I was in the room, holding my own pooches head and stroking him as he went down. It's the last loving act we can give them, to be there and help ease them through. Let him know he's loved, let him know he's safe, and you'll look for him when you reach the clearing at the end of your own path.
