Rob, ((()))) just to say I always have the vet come to me for my animals final journey. It saves them the stress of a car trip.

I feel for you so much, my old fella is on borrowed time and yet in himself he fine, just legs that are going.When he has a bad day I think I have to do the "deed" but then he picks up and so it goes.
I look upon it when the time comes as our final act of love to them.
It is so hard but look at all the love and happiness we had/have from them being in our lives.
Take care.
