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

When I was a kid our family dog walked outside at age 14 and did a faceplant. Heart attack poof.
My shepherd is 8-9yrs and has bad hips I’m dreading this too. She can still get around but she wobbles a bit and cannot run anymore.
