Our beloved yorkie Custer

We had our Yorkie for 16 years and 8 months. He was blind and was loosing the use of his legs.

In my heart we know we did the right thing by putting him down, but I can’t shake this feeling of sadness and guilt.

Did we do the right thing by ending his life?

I have wood floors and miss the sound of his feet walking back and forth and sometimes going around in circles.

I want to make a shrine of his bed and blankets.

I held him as his heart stopped at the Vet. My husband and I sobbed un-controlably.
