we had our Max for 10 years. He was 19, when he let us know he had "had" it. The vet came to our home and I stroked him while he was given the injection. Our vet told us "If he could talk, he would be thanking you right now". We have pictures on the mantle, we smile when we talk about him, and we will always have him in our hearts. His spirit will always be with us and we are grateful to have had his love. This was over 10 years ago, but we still have not decided when to get another.
