I had to close the article. I went with my future in-laws and future wife to put down their dog just a week before our wedding. Now we have our own not-quite 2 year old dog and a 7 month puppy. I had to take the older to the vet this morning to be put under for x-rays and potentially pulling a tooth, and it brought back strong memories of putting down my wife's dog. I'm hopeful for a long good life with these two dogs, but I already dread the day I have to let them go.

While it's a tough process I believe it helps prepare us in life for the big tragedies of having to let go of close loved ones. Whether they are 2 legged or 4 legged. It's better to love and lost then to never have loved at all.
