[BeauandShan]

I totally agree with moondog and the others our dogs are such a stoic and brave breed they never show pain until they cannot cope with it anymore.

I know from my experience with Beau how painful it is but I also new that he wasnt going to get better no matter how much I wanted him to. He lived in the here and now and he was unhappy and in pain. My last gift of love for him was to free him from it and let him go.

As much as I feel for everyone on this thread we are here for the love of our "babies" and we need to put them first. No matter how much it hurts us.

My thoughts are with you all at this time.
