We have to put our dog, Nugget, down today. The vet came last week and said he thinks she has bone cancer. It's causing her a lot of pain and she can hardly move, so it's time. He gave us a week of Rimadyl (I think it's like ibuprofen for dogs) and said maybe it will help, and it did, but not nearly enough. It's clear that he was right and "her time is drawing near." He will be here soon. Gosh, this is sad. But she was 15 years old, or almost, and that's a very long life for a very good dog.

I am so sorry. I know you all did the best thing for a sweet dog. Just think of how happy you all made her...she had a great life.
