We had to put my little sweatheart down Saturday night.

[get the red out]

20. I am so sorry

Pets are our angels. You didn't fail her, older dogs develop health problems quickly. I lost my precious, 15 1/2 year old, Layla in January. I took her to the Vet regularly for arthritis treatments and she was the same diva she had always been. Then I saw her start having seizures, I got her to our Vet quickly and he found a large tumor on her spleen. I feel guilty because looking back there might have been signs of these already beginning to happen, like finding poop on the dog beds and one literally soaked with pee. But I had no idea what that meant or which of my 2 dogs might be responsible. I have to remind myself that I had no idea that could be from Layla having a seizure.

It sounds like your angel was very fortunate to have been in your and your wife's care. You obviously did everything possible to take the best care of her. We can only do what we can do.
