Hello everyone, this is E
So... This is my dog Cotton
He's a Shih Tzu and he is 15 years old which... Is pretty old (105 in dog years)
He's a pretty mellow and lovable dog, I've had him for basically all my life.
He's cheery, always did a little dance when a person walked toward him.
However...
Tonight I got news that he's very ill and is going to have to be put down.
The dog who I grew up with until now, who I have loved and cared about for years, has to go.
Of course, it really hurts to see him pass on but I also don't want him to suffer.

Tomorrow, I'm going with my family to the vet so we can be with him when he passes.
He was a great dog who lived a good life that we tried to provide him.
I'll miss you Cotton.

Sorry this isn't as happy or anything but... I just wanted to post about it.
I'm having a rough time right now and this doesn't make it much better.  

Sincerely, E
