Great shot. You explained it well. When we love someone the money becomes immaterial to the bond. Get well Barney.

barney is a doll-baby! the bond between human and canine (or feline) is a joy. only you can make this decision and the opinions of others are best left in the trash heap. listen to your heart... you will know the best thing for your sweet pup. rock on barney!

You know, even though we are not the kind of family who would spend that kind of money on treatments for pets (I don't think -- never been faced with that decision, as we only have three cats and the most they have required is the occasional vet visit for infections, etc), I don't understand people who would be hard on you for it. It's your money, not theirs, and you are the one to decide your financial priorities, not they. Dorks. Raspberry indeed, and best wishes for you and Barney.

I'm sure Barney is grateful for what you're doing for him. I could never imagine just letting go of my dog, Sophie. We've only had her for 1 year (since she was about 7 weeks old). I've never bonded this closely with another pet as she is my first pet as an actual adult. IMO animals are so much more sentient than we give them credit for. I definately think they experience some emotions. But I'm sure you know that every time you look at your little Barney.
