The years (14) and ailments were finally too much. Plates and screws in both hind legs from ruptured ACLs, arthritis in both hips and starting in a shoulder, a bout with Rocky Mountain spotted fever that led to temporary blindness but recovered from both, a bout with mini seizures controlled by meds, digestive problems that led us to cook a special diet for her the last couple years, and recent diagnosis with bladder cancer. The last one was just too much.
A rescue dog we have had for the last 6 years. Expensive, but well worth it. The sweetest and most loving dog I have ever been around. Given up by her former owner (a vet) after a divorce. Still don't see how he could do it.
But his loss was our gain and we have enjoyed every minute of her being with us. Never missed a trip in the Monty. Had to use a ramp to get her in/out of the truck and trailer. But she loved going and always seemed to know when we were getting ready to go. Going to be a lot different traveling this year.
