If I were in your situation, I honestly don't think I could do it. Not because I wouldn't love the animal and want to keep them alive, but because I already saw my father pass away from cancer. I know I couldn't do it again with anyone again, human or animal, at least not for a long time. It's incredibly difficult to go through, and after hearing what my father had to say about it all, I realized he hated how much money we spent on him just to extend his life by the smallest bit. I understand the situation is different for animals, but I know it would be way too hard for me to try and get through. I'm happy you're doing all you can though. That dog is incredibly lucky to have you.
