However, when our cat was ill a few weeks ago and I took him to the vet, we feared the worse and I asked her if it was going to cost a lot of money should I have him put down. She said absolutely not. Then I said, what if it's $1500? She paused and then left the decision up to me. I can guarantee you if it was our dog and the bill would be $1500, she's getting what she needs.
When my dog was getting older she hurt her back legs and had issue walking. I thought i was gonna have to put her down then. But the vet wanted to try a few things first and we got another 2 years with her... While im sure they were not the best 2 years for her especially the last (as we had to leave her home alone alot due to my wifes medical issues) i am grateful for every minute i had with her. imo its almost impossible to say goodbye early
