You always question your decision, but in your heart of hearts, you know its whats right. Ace was my sweet boy I got as a Kindergarten graduation present, he became ill my freshman year of highschool with lyphnoma cancer and I was faced with the same horrific decision as you, "let him cross peacefully in my arms" or "continue his suffering". And as much as I would have loved him being there to see me graduate high school, and even college...I know he was there. He's there in the eyes of every rescue I see. Especially the "big black scary dogs" no one seems to want to adopt. Julius is the black lab/chow mix who I saved last Spring in Pike County from euthanasia- he favors Ace so much in his looks and laid back disposition that I just know he was sent here just for me. Cootie was simply making room in your heart for you to place another rescue. They will always know you're love never faultered for them and you will continue to see their resemblances in every pup you come across. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. This is the hardest thing, we as pet owners must do for the ones we care so deeply for.
