[QUOTE="Prairie Doggin', post: 367186, member: 6980"] With our last dog, I knew within the week I would have to make that decision. Wife was out of town, so dreaded making the call on my own, fearing she would doubt me. Came home for lunch, spent a few minutes with him, ran downstairs for a minute...came back up and he was gone. Thankful I didn't have to make the decision and that I had those couple minutes. It was February - Valentines Day, to be exact. Wrapped him in a favorite blanket and took him to the garage. Spent the next couple weeks building a coffin, complete with routered name, date of birth, date of death, etc. Sealed as best as I could until spring when I could bury him. Hand-dug a grave for the way-too-big coffin, and immediate family had a funeral in April. That was about 13 years ago...current dog in closing in on the end. I find myself hoping she goes in her sleep, as I'm not sure I'm strong enough to make that decision... Dogs provide us with some of the best moments, but also some of the worst. [/QUOTE]
