On the same day ISU has a historic, all-time win, I have to put one of my dogs down. ****.
He was a nearly 17 year old miniature dachshund who had been in failing health for a year so we had kind of been waiting for it, but today was the day. We think he might have had a stroke last week as one side of his body got weak, but then very suddenly tonight he could only walk in small, clockwise circles and was acting very confused and upset. I'm obviously sad but also a little relieved that we don't have to worry about him anymore. ****. This sucks.
