yea, I just hope my fiance will put him down sooner rather than later, basically this dog grew up with him, my fiance is 25 the dog is 10 so yea there is a lot of love there but if I "make" him put him down then I can just see it turning around in the future with resentment, so I have just been supporting my fiance and telling him how unhappy Doobie is, and how he does not play and everything like that so he can see its the right thing.

Maybe the vet can help you with talking to him. Comes a time that because we love that animal we put them down. Quality of life comes in to play does he really want this life for the dog would he want that life for himself. You should not make him put the dog down but you can try and help him understand that putting the dog down would be the greatest show of love and respect he would be putting his own selfish feeling aside and doing whats best for his dog...I have been in those shoes and its tough but its selfish to keep the dog around because we do not want to let go
