Y’all- none of us are entitled to an update. Saying goodbye to your soul dog is incredibly painful. Let Maddie take her time with sharing current info about Rudder.

The anxiety around “is this the last” is horrible. Every morning my girl gets in bed to wake me up I keep trying to memorize everything about her in case it’s the last time.

Just wanna say, my dog had TPLO earlier this year, and I watched your videos on both of his surgeries like a manual, and it made such a huge difference, thank you for sharing him.

“He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion." My favorite quote, these are hard days, by putting his needs first, you are worthy ❤️

I've been feeling so much guilt because I didn't get a big "last Christmas" with my dog and you are so right. They don't know what Christmas is and they are just happy to live every day in the moment. 🥺

God, the pain of anticipatory grief is staggering. I lost my sweet boy suddenly and I was so sad that I didn’t know all of the last times were going to be the last. But watching these videos, I think the knowing is actually so much harder. Sending you and sweet Rudder so much love 🖤

she posted him in her story on Instagram. I think he's still with us. She is probably posting videos that made her decision and they were hard for her to post back in july.

I participated in a lecture about living with senior dogs and having a good death. My girl isn't "old" per say but she has bilateral hip dysplasia, arthritis, a torn knee, anxiety, and behavioral problems. I remember first getting our updated diagnosis and the discussion with our behavioral veterinarian about what I wanted her life to look like. You are doing all of the right things that both the vet and the senior dog expert spoke about. It's quality over quantity and everything that goes with it. Having a plan makes it easier to think about. I have my list of "I'll know it's time when..." and we just take it day by day. She has her med regimen that makes most days good days. I imagine it is hard to post these videos, but just know that for me, this has been so educational to me to see someone putting the dog first and living out what I have learned. They give me courage that when the time comes, it won't be easy, but the right, ethical way is possible. And you have shown me what I want my time with my girl to look like. Thank you for sharing your incredible boy with us and for sharing this journey, even the really hard parts.
