Default Re: This is the worse day of my life.

Sorry to hear about "Max". I had A Dog named "Oreo" for about 14 years that grew up on dog food, ice cream sandwiches and chocolate... At fourteen he seemed as healthy as most younger dogs in the area and the Vet often told me his heart was as healthy as any dog half his age. We took good care of Oreo , even holding him down to clean his teeth on occasion. His hearing started to go and the neighbor didn't see him one day while backing his car. I knew he was hurt and the Vet said he might be okay but was in shock and would lose one front leg so I had to make A decision and live with it. Oreo was an outside pet that ran and visited all my area neighbors (for more food of course) so I couldn't see him deal with that at his age. He was about 25 lbs and mostly cocker spaniel with A few other nice varieties thrown in the mix.. I was inroduced to Oreo when I was about 13 and lost him 14 years later. You never forget your best friend.... I wonder what he really thought of me when I used to smear peanut buter on the roof of his mouth? It doesn't matter, it was hilarious to watch and I'd do it again.
