Ok so last night I had the worst dream EVER. Basically Rory got out into the street (i'll never let this happen) got ran over and I was holding her bleeding head in my lap, she was convulsing and I was pleading with firemen to put her out of her misery. He kept saying no and my dream ended with me shooting her because I loved her.
Ok I know that is a terrible thing but it got me thinking. I had this one lady proudly introduce me to her 16 year old poodle who couldnt hear, see, walk or eat whole food. He had scabs all over his body and she was so happy he was still alive. Now I dont know about you all but that seems extremely selfish to me. I for one would not want to be living, I wouldnt keep Rory alive either if that were the case. My mother says I'm cruel. I say I dont want my baby girl to live like that, I dont want to remember her like that. I want to remember her hauling doggy butt through a field, ears pinned back, all wild and free. I mean obviously if she is young and she needs surgery thats one thing but if a dog cant walk and is pissin on itself I think its time to let it go, what do you all think? When would you call it quits? Its not about us, its about them ya know?
Thankfully Rory is only 19 months and she has a long happy life ahead of her but you know I never investigated the life expectancy of pits. What is the average? How many of you have pet health insurance and is it worth having?
