Maybe the Marine is doing the right thing then. Some animals can adjust very quickly. You were very kind to your dog. He had a few more good years left after all.
“He had a few more good years left after all.”
I was debating on whether to spend the money or not. And the doc said she wouldn’t even suggest the surgery if she didn’t think he would bounce back - the dog was so young at heart. “AND - even if it is just another year - that’s like 7 years in dog years!” That made the decision an instant “yes”.
