[quote=Anonymous]I'm curious what other's experiences have been. My beloved dog is getting old, and while he's still relatively healthy and regularly bounds through the woods despite some arthritis, I'm trying to prepare myself for what lies ahead. He's big -- over 90 lbs and lanky -- so our ability to transport him if and when he starts to get sick is pretty limited. We were at the vet recently, and he has a few lumps that might be benign fatty tumors, but might be something worse. They aren't currently causing problems for him, but of course they make me worry. I decided not to have them biopsied as I can't imagine doing any sort of aggressive treatment at this point (he's 13) and I'd rather spend our limited "pet funds" on medications that make him feel better (painkillers and dasaquin for his arthritis), but I hope I'm doing the right thing. So how did the end of your dog's life play out? Do you wish you did anything differently? [/quote]
