@Freya I couldn't find the dog/cat thread so I'm posting this here.
Thank you my little Jack Russell for 14 wonderful years of loyalty, playfulness, obnoxiousness, and for making the death of my father 14 years ago bearable. It broke my heart to have to take you to the vet this morning to have you put down, but watching you suffer uncontrollably in back pain, is not something I could continue to put you through. I'm sorry I couldn't hold you as they put you to sleep, but I just couldn't bear to watch. Please forgive me.....
Thank you God for my dear friend.
I know the dog can't hear me....but I feel better....lol. ^-^
