    Oh man! I started to tear up! I am soooo sorry for your loss. But he is not in pain anymore and that is the main thing. I had a friend who had a really hard time making that call and the poor animal suffered because she wanted him to stay. I told her it was not fair. And that we are being a bit selfish when we do this. I was being harsh with her only cause I have been there. Now I know better and if my loved one is in pain and all avenues have been taken with no help it truely is the nicest gift we can give.

    Do you have a picture of Max so that we can see what the handsom boy looked like? In your own time of coarse.

    I am so sorry for your loss! My dogs are my babies, my inlaws can't understand when I tell them we don't need kids right now. I have made the promise to never let them suffer, so I can imagine being in your shoes one day.

    Sorry for the bittersweet day, but it sounds like Max went on in peace. Take care.

    My deepest sympathies to you. My own beloved Great Pyrenees, Eddie past away last month.

    Sometimes it feels like our pet friends only get to dance on the earth a short while. Your pal would want you to enjoy your new bike, which you will in time. Hopefully riding will help ease your pain.
