My parents have a maltese and it has a slow heart rate they have no idea why but it is tired all the time and has problems with its back legs, he is also about 7 years old!

well, the deed is done ...

It was the saddest experience ever going into the vet with my dog, and leaving alone ....

i know i can get a new dog and i will, but it just won't be the same ... that dog had my temperment even after being around me so long ....

Well, it's finally happened ...

i'm having to put my maltese down tomorrow ...

he's had congenitive heart failure which has led to severe edema of the pulmonary tracts, and he just can't function anymore ...

He's 7 years old, and he's been a great puppy, but he just has been struggling since last summer ...

My parents say he's struggling to even move around and has to keep his head elevated to breathe, so i'm going home early tomorrow and i have to take him to the vet ...

It's been my girl's dog forever, but i've taken care of him constantly since i started school ...

So now i have to get a new maltese to try to replace him if that's possible ...

I'm gonna miss casper ...

I'm sorry to hear that, I don't know what I would do if I ever had to do that to my boy Rado...I'm sorry

That really sucks bro. I feel for ya. I have a 13-year old Black Lab and I'm dreading the day I have to deal with that.

Thats beautiful bro. I've commited that to memory.

CJ- Puting my pup down after 14 years was so hard as well, I teered up llike crazy and other than not making a sound your could have said I was crying. His buddy my other dog is getting a bit old now and I cant even think of putting her down. Dogs should live for 30 years.

Of course there would be a hell of alot of dogs around though.

i almost started crying today about 10 times because i'd be laying on teh couch, and he just wasn't there ...

i almost called him about 5x because i couldn't figure out where he was ... it really hasn't set in yet ...

sorry CJ.....
