You have my prayers a year and ahalf ago we lost a mix breed we had for 16 years to cancer. The vet said very traumatic I should go in the waiting room. I left the room, turned around and went back in, I held her head in my hands looked in her face and talked to her until she passed. I did not want her to be alone. They are like our children because they give love and affection so unconditional. I pray yours is one of those wonderful success stories and your puppy is with you for many more yeas.

Yes, no way would I leave. The vet I had with my GS in bad shape said no such thing, but even though I was a wreck (she had been falling apart over the weekend) I wanted to pet her, hold her.
My dad wanted to leave - but I begged him not to leave us (as I said, I was a wreck after living alone with this poor dog), so he stayed in the room.
Just say I’m glad I did.
Thank you prayers are needed. She is slipping fast now. It is just so sad....
