There was no autopsy needed on any of them. Unfortunately it was obvious. We
opted against any treatment due to their ages. We just held on until they said
it was time to rest.

older they get, the more cancer hits. We only give the puppy series of vaccines
and no rabies after 10 yrs of age. They get a combo of raw and a dry food as
natural as we can afford. I just don't know what else we can do.

very old dogs die at home, and had I wanted to have them autopsied, I feel sure
the vet could find something to blame for the death. My feelings are that once
a
dog reaches eleven, I am not going to search for a reason for his demise.
Losing
a dog is one of the hardest things to go through, and I just want him/her
cremated and then I bury them. Just the way I feel about it, no argument
intended or wanted. Doris E */
