I won't say "you'll know," because that platitude turned out to be true for only one of the three dogs for whom we had to make this painful decision. But I will say, "whenever you decide, will be close enough to be best for Nala." You love her enough to sacrifice for her, that's plain, and that gives rightness to whatever and whenever you decide.

It's an awful balancing process. Not eating is a sign, yes, but you still have to figure the chances that she'll come back from it, and whether she has enough enjoyment and quality in other aspects of her life to make it worth fighting to bring her appetite back.

Take good care. I'm thinking about you.
