We had to put my 20 year old dog down on Friday. It was extremely hard. Before he left I held him and kissed him repeatively and gave him hugs. He would then rub his head back on my chest like he was giving me a hug too. He was kissing me all over. We burried him with my other dog so that he won't be lonely. We cremated my other dog. My other dog died the day before my birthday. I sure miss my dogs right now. His colar is on the table right now and it smells like him. I'm thinking about sleeping with it tonight. He sure lived along life and was fighting to stay alive. He had a torn ac in his knee. They told us that if we fixed it, he may die and that if we manged his pain he could like for many years. He lived for 5 more years after that. He couldn't see at all at night in his latest days. He kept running into walls and couldn't hold his blatter no more. Sorry I thought if I wrote this I would beable to sleep tonight besides thinking about how much i miss him. He was a good dog and will always be loved.
