re: When is it time to put down your pet?

Issues: She will be 13 this year, she has incontinence problems (she will go to sleep and just pee where she lies) and she is about to have surgery to remove 4 benign masses. She keeps chewing at these masses and they open and bleed everywhere! It will look like a crime scene in the morning.

There are "Doggie Diapers" you can use. We did on a hound we had for about a year.

When? If they look in obvious pain. Can't walk without assistance. You'll know. Vet can guide you also.

The worst part of pet ownership, but you don't want them to suffer.

BTW..to help ease the loss, in the past, I've created photo albums using MixBook for the family of the pet. Also, we were able to make personalized headstones with the photo for the dog and placed it in a little "pet cemetery". Not that expensive. Maybe $40.
