Feel you pain. We had our two dogs go within 8 months of each other. Both 14 years old & nothing but loyal, faithfull, loving mateship. Our catlle cross & pound puppy, Tassie, went first with cancer & then our pure bred staffy, Kasey. No good at all. Even though they had the best of evreything & wanted for nothing, I still felt like we had failed them somehow by not being able to save them.
My condolences.
Mike.
