His name was Skeets.
He was 13.5 years old.
Skeets was a rescue shelter dog, I never met a heart hard enough that he couldn’t open.

    ^^^^^ Totally understand as I did the same thing 4.5 months ago with my little fur baby. Truly heartbreaking but I wouldn't have it any other way either.

    My condolences. Can say it is one of the hardest things I've had to do. Looks like he was a happy doggo though 😊

    Pets give us unconditional love. They also shatter our hearts when they go. They are still worth every tear! May the Lord comfort you!
