I am euthanizing my dog on Monday. (lemmy.world)

The vet says he has a cancerous lump and will not survive any intervention, and that he was a very different dog than even from two months ago and that it was time. He has dementia, tracheal stenosis, diabetes and cataracts, and coughs a lot, so it really is time, but my ex needed to hear it from the vet, who thankfully is always her forthright helpful compassionate self.

I know the internet hates pugs, but he was a stray I fostered and then adopted, and he had a wonderful hilarious personality, was cuddly as could be, and really did very well until the last year or so.

It is the right decision without question, but it's never any easier no matter what experience you have with it. I will miss my puppy baby so much.

Omg I'm so sorry. you have my condolences. sounds like he had a good long life and euthanising him is the compassionate option so don't feel bad. pugs are so cute I'm glad you gave him his best life and you'll remember him for all the love and laughs he brought to you ❤️

I sure will. He was absolutely hilarious and loved to death by us.
