Our black lab was just a shade over 12 years old and had a gigantic tumor removed from her hind leg about 6 months ago only to have it grow back bigger and badder. We got her when I was 15. My mom ended up taking her to the vet yesterday and according to her, she was fighting the vets from injecting her and, in turn, putting her to sleep.
My mom was pretty inconsolable today, since she picked her out of the litter we were looking at getting a black lab pup and it ended up being her that watched her be put to sleep. It’s been a pretty sad day.
Yep. Mine had that same cancer,. She had her operation last February, and then it came back even worse. She was a trooper, though. Only had one bad day, and that was her last. I stayed up with her all that night, but I had to work the next day, so Husband had to have her put down.
Man, I sure miss my dogs. And I’m a CAT person, LOL! We still have our Basset Hound, who is a handful in and of himself. Come Spring, I’m betting there are one or more new pups around here, carpeting be d@mned. :)
