[quote=Anonymous]*TW: putting a pet down* We have a 15 year old dog. He's survived a lot. In the last 6 months: His digestive issues got pretty severe. He can only tolerate chicken & rice but eats it with gusto and is "stable" on this His mobility has gone down hill a lot. We carry him and he's able to walk around to potty or eat but has no interest in walking further. His vet suspects muscle loss in his legs may be from arthritis or a cancer He doesn't greet us anymore even when we've been gone for long periods of time. Tail wags are infrequent. No licks or affection. I suspect he has some sun downers and can be agitated at night (we give him melatonin for this). He seems to be content when the kids are around him. I haven't put a dog down before so this is new territory for me. The vet said any time we're ready they would support it. [/quote]
