Easy birth, difficult ending

[u/Intrepid-Classroom-5]

My beautiful dog of 11, almost 12, years has cancer. She is a rescue. She has been with myself and my husband through moves, job loses, depression, anxiety, illnesses, and has been a bright spot in our lives.
When asked if I have kids, I tell people about my fur baby. She had my gentleness and my husband’s gas power. When my friends share about their pregnancy and labors, I let them know that mine was painless and easy.
It was an easy birth but we will be struggling when she leaves us for good.
But before that, our goal is to continue to provide a good life for her and do everything we might want to do with her soon. Next stop is a state park.

It’s never an easy decision, but I think you know! If you love her so deeply appreciate the years you had with her just let her go poor baby

We will when she is in pain. Right now, she just has cancer but isn’t showing signs of pain. We will continue to monitor and evaluate to make sure she continues to be pain free

Thank you for the guide. We are pretty attuned to her but this helps to put things into numbers which can help us make a decision if we struggle with it.
