it is difficult to put down such a young dog. Rest assure he is in peace now and not suffering from terrible pain.
I put Bette away last month. She had severe hip athiritis and reumatoid cancer. She was 12 years old. I kept her comfortable as long as I could. She loves her daily treat of Yoghound. When she started having trouble going out to do her duty. It was time. I can see Bette and Pirate chasing each other in doggie heaven.
