One of the hardest things I ever had to do was take the final trip to the vet with my first dog. She was ready, but it was still hard for both of us. Our vet was great - he put us in a room and told us to take as much time as we wanted before he came in, and he also explained how the procedure would work. I am really grateful that she passed quickly and peacefully.
Harley, I am so sorry you had and your wife had to see your best friend's suffering compounded in the final moments. I hope you will remember two things. One, your dog was suffering tremendously already and euthanizing was the right thing to do. Two, you and your wife obviously loved your dog and have a treasure trove of memories of much better days to recall. I hope you will focus on those cherished memories.

JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
