    Well... Doerak is no longer with us :(

    We were fortunate enough to find a local vet to come out to our home to help him through this process. This is the first time we've been able to do this since moving here for our retirement, and I've forgotten how much more peaceful it is (or at least it feels that way from my perspective). Here's one of our final photos from yesterday morning hanging out with him about an hour before his passing... RIP!!!!

    (followed by some moments throughout his life for @455h0le_dachshund and a few others that have asked for more photos)...

    This was about 2 years ago...

    About 4 years ago... not fighting weight, but solid, healthy and still strong AF :muscleflexing:

    About 6 years when we first retired... A little beach time and a little leaner pup!!!!

    Moving to the coast... He was surprising calm during much of this drive in the Uhaul

    Sorry to hear about your loss, man.
    But I think you're onto something about the peaceful way of going at home.
    It was the worst day of my life waiting at the vet for two or three hours and I know Benni was stressed. We all were.

    Sorry for your lost. It’s always hard to let go. I know, because we lost ours a couple months ago. Hag in there.

    Sorry to hear, but so awesome you were able to do it at home where. You gave him the best life he could have and he gave you memories that will last forever.

    This girl was awesome. We were referred to her by some friends, and it was our first time meeting her. She was patient, not rushed about anything, spent about an hour hanging out with Doerak and us just chatting, for an extremely sucky day, that part of it was perfect...

    I've felt that way at the vet in these situations before... FTS!!! It makes the entire process feel off and wrong for the dog :(

    We transported him to be cremated and will hopefully have him back later this afternoon!!!

    Sorry for your loss, he was a good looking dog, looked like he loved doing what he did to.

    Doing it at home is the way to go imo. When we lost our first one 4 years ago we knew going to the vet would suck because she hated going, didn't want that to be her last memory/experience. Was recommended Lap of Love by someone we knew, we had a very similar experience as you described and 100% will go that route in the future.
