A very sad night

My dog, Liberty, passed away last night.  She has been sick for the past couple of days, and last night we could tell that it was her time to go.  She was very uncomfortable, so we took her to the vet to put her down in a more peaceful way. (Please do not judge for this decision. She was a very old dog and we did not want to see her suffer). The whole experience was extremely heart-wrenching.  It was not an easy decision, but the vet agreed that she would've gone in the next couple hours and it would've been a long and painful process.  She was having difficulty breathing and was anemic.  It was reassuring that the vet could spare her a few hours of pain.
My mom, dad, brother and I were together with her as a family while she passed. 
She is now buried next to her sister.  A very bittersweet ending.

That is like my friends dog, Mac. He had trouble breathing too so they took him to the vet. When they came back he collapsed so they took him to the vet again. The vet put him to sleep. My friend and Mac had 12 long, beautiful years together. Anyway, you have my sympathies.
