Dang, Gary. I am sorry for the loss. I was just looking at the picture of Mog on the "Bast Friends" thread a few minutes ago and thinking what a beautiful animal he was.
I had a similar experience with my yellow lab abotu 6 years ago. He was 13, and, well, he just kind of wore out one day. I did for him what I hope someone loves me enough to do for me when my time comes: I let him go peacefully.
Then I sat in my truck and cried like a baby.
Maybe Fritz and Mog can play until we get there.
