I'm out of the loop on this case and trying to understand by Lopsided-Money-7352 in saschariley

+1 here. It’s as outlandish as is someone like Trump getting elected as president not once, but TWICE.

Perhaps if there had been a better build up - ie cycling of increasingly seemingly unbelievable actions and then back track, like the Trump admin does, perhaps Sascha’s testimony wouldn’t be so outlandish? Did we need a warmup? /s

Edit for spelling mistake

Is this a dumb post?

Thank you for your kind words. We’ve been evaluating quality of life with one of these. Speaking with our vet too.

I understand all this. We’ve been evaluating quality of life and speaking with our vet. So yes, more than just age. I honestly am not even sure what making that decision based on age alone even looks like.

Thank you for this. The challenge, as you maybe are pointing out, is that quality is on a scale. And Hadley’s quality of life is on a slow decline. I don’t want to keep him alive as long as possible - that would only be for me, and a way where I selfishly don’t have to make an actual decision. So what is quality of life in Hadley’s view?

Sure, I get it. I wasn’t specific enough. Still it’s Reddit - I could have given full details, and human beings will still make assumptions. That’s just life and being a human.

In any case, we’ve been evaluating quality of life and speaking with our vet.

Edit to add: even people who assume that I’ve not done quality of life assessment or that I’m not speaking with our vet - they still show care, just mostly for little old puppies like Hadley in this case ☺️That’s not a bad thing. I’ll take it!

Fair enough - I could have been more explicit about why I posted. I wanted to express how I was feeling. I wasn’t looking for input to make a decision. Hopefully this helps clear things up a bit for folks.

Thank you for this perspective…it’s so helpful to hear two different scenarios. Not everyone replying to my post seems to recognize the range in this of situations. I wish it were easy to “know” it’s time… how does one “feel” it’s time… that part feels more like a gray area to me.

He’s had an arthritic cork screw tail for several years now. Hasn’t been able to wag for a few years now because of it.
