The hardest thing I had to do today was put Duster to the rest

I have had to put down horses, cattle myself with the gun.
I have lost dogs to death by natural causes, over the decades. I have had to sit in the vet's waiting room for what seemed like forever to have my best bud put down. Tears streaming down a grown man's face that has seen it pretty much all. I really don't think I can stand that again when the times comes. If I use the gun, it will be instant for my beloved dog and quick release for me. Life is hard.
