2talltim Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 (edited) I picked her out the litter when I graduated high school, she was 17 yrs old, siberian huskey her name was Hershey.I knew it was coming this hot weather has not been good to her. Today I went out to check on her and she was leaning against the fence with blood running out of her mouth, and the flies would not leave her alone. So I decided it was time, and some don't want to hear this but it was only fitting that I do it myself, one shot and 2 more breaths and it was done. She was me and my wifes original kid, we raised her from a pup, she was a protector of my children and a best friend I could talk to when I didn't want anyone else to hear. R.I.P. girl we love you.

Coyote Posted July 20, 2012 Report Share Posted July 20, 2012 You have my deepest sympathy. We had to put down our 12yo pup just 3 months ago because of lymphoma. He wouldn't give up, and kept besting any prognosis the vet gave. Having to make that call for him was probably the most painful decision I've ever had to make.
