"It turns out that pets also have last wills before they die, but only known to vets who put old and sick animals to sleep." Twitter user Jesse Dietrich asked a vet what the hardest part of his job was.
The specialist replied without hesitation that the hardest thing for him was seeing how old or sick animals look for their owners before they fall asleep. The fact is 90% of owners don't want to be in a room with a dying animal. People leave so they don't see their animals leave. But they don't realize it's in these last moments of life that their animal needs them the most.
Vets are asking owners to stay close to animals until the end. "It is inevitable that they die before you. Remember that you were the center of their lives. Maybe they were just a part of you. But they are also your family. Even if it's hard, don't give up on them.
Don't let them die in a room with a stranger in a place they don't like. It's very painful for vets to see how pets can't find their owner in the last minutes of their lives. They don't understand why their master left them. After all, they needed the consolation of their master.
Veterinarians do their best to make animals not so scared, but they are totally strangers to them. Don't be a coward because it's too painful for you. Think about the animal. Endure that pain for them. Be with them until the end.

A farmer had some puppies he needed to
sell. He painted a sign advertising the 4
pups, and set about nailing it to a post on
the edge of his yard.
As he was driving the last nail into the
post, he felt tug on his overalls
He looked down into the eyes of a little
boy.
"Mister," he said, "| want to buy one of
your puppies.'
"Well," said the farmer, as he rubbed the
sweat of the back of his neck, "these
puppies come from fine parents and cost
a good deal of money."
The boy dropped his head for a moment
Then reaching deep into his pocket
he pulled out a handful of change and
held it up to the farmer. "I've
got Two dollars & thirty cents. Is that
enough to take a look?"
"Sure," said the farmer. And with that he
let out a whistle. "Here Dolly!" he called.
Out from the doghouse and down ramp
ran Dolly followed by four little balls of
fur.
The little boy pressed his face against the
chain link fence. His eyes danced with
delight.
As the dogs made their way to the fence,
the little boy noticed
something else stirring inside the
doghouse.
Slowly another little ball appeared, this
one noticeably smaller.
Down the ramp it slid. Then in a awkward
manner, the little pup began hobbling
toward the others, doing its best to catch
up...
"I want that one," the little boy said
pointing to the runt.
The farmer knelt down at the boy's side
and said, "Son, you don't want that
puppy. He will never be able to run and
play with you like these other dogs
would."
With that the little boy stepped back from
the fence, reached down, and began
rolling up one leg of his trousers. In doing
so he revealed a steel brace running
down both sides of his leg attaching itself
to a specially made shoe.
Looking back up at the farmer, he said,
"You see sir, I don't run too well myself,
and he will need someone who
understands."
With tears in his eyes, the farmer reached
down and picked up the little pup.
Holding it carefully he handed it to the
little boy.

"How much?" asked the little boy.
"No charge," answered the farmer,
"There's no charge for love.'

"A man and his dog were walking along a road. The man was enjoying the scenery, when it suddenly occurred to him that he was dead.
He remembered dying, and that the dog walking beside him had been dead for years. He wondered where the road was leading them.
After a while, they came to a high, white stone wall along one side of the road. It looked like fine marble. At the top of a long hill, it was broken by a tall arch that glowed in the sunlight.
When he was standing before it he saw a magnificent gate in the arch that looked like mother-of-pearl, and the street that led to the gate looked like pure gold. He and the dog walked toward the gate, and as he got closer, he saw a man at a desk to one side.
When he was close enough, he called out, 'Excuse me, where are we?'
'This is Heaven, sir,' the man answered.
Would you happen to have some water?' the man asked.
Of course, sir. Come right in, and I'll have some ice water brought right up'.The man gestured, and the gate began to open.
'Can my friend,' gesturing toward his dog, 'come in, too?' the traveller asked.
'I'm sorry, sir, but we don't accept pets.'
The man thought a moment and then turned back toward the road and continued the way he had been going with his dog.
After another long walk, and at the top of another long hill, he came to a dirt road leading through a farm gate that looked as if it had never been closed. There was no fence. As he approached the gate, he saw a man inside, leaning against a tree and reading a book.
'Excuse me!' he called to the man. 'Do you have any water?'
'Yeah, sure, there's a pump over there, come on in..'
'How about my friend here?' the traveller gestured to the dog.
There should be a bowl by the pump.'
They went through the gate, and sure enough, there was an old-fashioned hand pump with a bowl beside it. The traveller filled the water bowl and took a long drink himself, then he gave some to the dog.
When they were full, he and the dog walked back toward the man who was standing by the tree.
'What do you call this place?' the traveller asked.
This is Heaven,' he answered.
'Well, that's confusing,' the traveller said. 'The man down the road said that was Heaven, too.'
'Oh, you mean the place with the gold street and pearly gates? Nope. That's hell.'
'Doesn't it make you mad for them to use your name like that?'
'No, we're just happy that they screen out the folks who would leave their best friends behind.'" Dogs are family ❤
