Sorry to hear of his passing away. If where he's headed is judged in any manner from his past, your words tell of a good place. In such arms as portrayed, looking so comfortable as he does in that picture, I am confidant he loved his home, and you.

I had a tougher time when my dog died than when I lost human relatives. RIP

It's a hard thing to have to do, but I think helping a loyal friend like Tango leave this world peacefully and with dignity is the truest sign of friendship there is-- here's to you Tango. Sorry for your loss Michelle.

I am so sorry for your lose. They become family and their love is unconditional. They leave a part of them with you forever and their memory stays strong. As all dogs go to heaven I am sure you will meet again.
Stay strong.

Michelle,
I am very sorry to hear this about Tango. I have a 15 year old Siberian Husky whose name is Thor that doesn't get around very well and has some trouble sitting. We have him on pain meds and we do the best we can at taking care of him
I know that we're going to have a very tough decision to make in the future. I have thought about this a lot lately. Do I take him to the vet by myself or bring the family? Do I tell them what I'm doing or just do it? I'm not trying to be selfish or cold, just thinking about how I can spare my family the heartache of the loss of a family member. I guess there's no easy way out.
I'm just thinking out loud. They should be there to say their final goodbyes. They are entitled to that and I shouldn't take it away from them.
My heart goes out to you and Tango.
Doc

A difficult and heartwrenching situation, sorry to hear this Doc. There is no easy answer though. Speaking from experience, somehow it's a little less painful when you can say goodbye...

I'm very sorry for your loss, Michelle. It's so hard to let go of our kids. Rest in peace, Tango. Say hi to my friends.

BTDT. Had a red/white Siberian named Czar. No matter how sick he was, he would never let me outpace him on our runs. He always had to be the lead dog.
