Judy, I'm so sorry about your Malamute. I know how close you were to him. And I know what a blow it was to lose my Harry. I still haven't recovered.
The whippet was a good sweet dog. In fact as she sat on my lap at the vets unable to move below the neck and with only a bit of control over moving her head, she reached up and licked me. I *know* that what I did was right for her. I would have even done it for Harry. A dog just can't possibly understand why they can't move, and she was so distressed. For a slim chance of recovery, it wouldn't have been right to put her through that.
