you're welcome. that dog has the same look on his face as mine when I held him as the vet put him to sleep.
12 years is pretty old for a Norweigan Elkhound.

I had to put my two greyhounds down within a year of each other...one was 12, one was 14. My wife and I got the 14 yo a month after we were married. She was literally our first child. Took me 3 years before I could get another greyhound.

Thanks for the beautiful picture. I may be putting my Jack Russel Terrier down soon, maybe tomorrow. His 2nd eye went blind from glaucoma a month ago and this morning he appeared to have had a stroke. Walking in tight circles and shaking. Even if it wasn't a stroke he isn't adjusting to his blindness like I had hoped he would. His quality of life is zero and I can't bear that life for him.

We had our eldest dog put to sleep in mid June. He was almost twelve and a half, and we held him in our arms as he passed. The people at Tufts have my never ending thanks for their sensitivity and kindness. We miss him every day.

I’m putting a dear one to sleep tomorrow. I will be gathered and strengthened by you. Thank you.
