I am so sad, I just keep crying. I have made the agonising decision to have my dear 13 and a half year old yellow lab put to sleep. She has been such a lovely dog, always wanting to please, would never steal food, wouldn't climb on the furniture and even opened doors with her nose rather than scratching.
About 2 months ago she started developing small lumps on top of her head, shoulders and sides and legs. These gradually get bigger and ulcerate. She has had needle aspiration and tumour biopsy which they are having to run extra tests on to discover what it is. She now has a large lump above her anus which keeps bleeding and causing her a lot of discomfort. The vet thinks it is histiosarcoma.
She doesn't want to play with her toys and there are somethings she no longer wants to eat, and spends most of the time either lying comatose or being very restless. She has the odd bright moment. I am not keen on steroids which aren't going to cure and would upset her if she wee-ed indoors or wanted to steal food. I have seen a holistic vet but I think things have moved too far for that to work I don't want to see her suffer so feel euthanasia is the best option at home next Friday.
Why them am I plagued with doubts when I know this is the right thing to do? My husband can't understand why I am upset when "this is the only thing to do." My grown up 2 dds are very understanding. I just want to cry all the more.
