My beloved dog Rooster died last weekend. He somehow got this terrible back disease which is apparently is a fate that many beagles suffer. He would cry in pain every time I so much as touched him, he would always look miserable, and was completely paralyzed in his back legs. We took him to the vet and it was so bad that THEY said we should probably put him to sleep. If the vet was telling us that (which isn't normally something happens at that specific shelter. They frown upon putting pets to sleep and only do so a last resort), we decided we should put good old Rooster to rest. He was actually quite young too, only having lived for 7 years. But up until his last few days, Rooster had a good life. One of the best lives a dog could live. His "adopted sister" Lakota Sioux has been depressed due to missing him lately. Lakota is a boxer/rottwiler mix with a very kind heart and loving personality. It really hits me hard to see her cry, especially over something I'm very sad about as well. But because I didn't want him to spend the rest of his life in pain, I feel like I did the right thing. If there's a dog Heaven, surely Rooster is there right now.

In memory of Rooster, the best pet I've ever had
