How long have you had yours?
I haven't owned a dog since my last one died a good 7 years or so ago.
Don't know why I think a cat dying will be less painful.

Tbh they normally drag themselves off to die in dignity

Just over 11 years. She's about 12.
Rescue dog, so difficult to pinpoint exactly.

Poor thing. If she is happy enough then I wouldn't cast that vote just yet.

We had no choice with mine. His back legs had completely gone. He was very immobile

She's happy, she's active, but it's going to affect her ability to eat, drink and possibly breath at some point.

He's 10 now
and we got him when he was about 8 weeks old. My parents have had dogs before, but biscuit is the first dog I've actually owned myself.

i can't imagine the state I'm going to be in when he's wormfood.
