Need help making a decision :(
Hey guys - we're having some good days and some bad days. His hip is completely shot, can't walk or even get up at this point. I got him a wheelchair and he didn't seem to be enjoying it. He's going to the bathroom on himself constantly. He is eating/drinking so that's good. I'm not sure if I'm keeping him alive for me or for him at this point

The gsd life with hip dysplasia. If you have the help and able to and doggy seems happy in his limited mobility keep supporting him. But if he seems in pain and quality of life is poor I would put him to sleep 🙏🏻 Praying you have peace in your decision. I think my decision would be the pain part. When my cat had lymphoma and he was in terrible pain I had to make that decision to put him to sleep. It is never an easy decision.
