My 13 yr old mixed cocker spaniel is not doing so well. I feel like he is not living his best life. He has developed several issues in the past couple years that impact his QoL. I’m worried how to deal with his buddy an 11-12 year old mixed shih tzu. I do not want him to get depressed nor do I want to get a new dog just to replace him. I’m open for suggestions. Thank you. I also told my older sister to not get me a new dog as she has a habit of doing so lol.

      From other posts, I gather"surrender" means “give up for adoption”. Which imo is the worst choice possible, sick animals never fare well in those situations

      I’m going to surrender him. I feel like like I cannot provide him with a good enough life anymore. Considering the circumstance I assume he will be put down. The best outcome is that he will live a long and happy life with someone else. I just want tips on how to help my remaining dog with his absence.
