Man's Best Friend

I have two dogs, Riley and Yogi, I love them both soo much. But on Thursday, we have to put Yogi to sleep. In 2006 we rescued Yogi from a farm in Tennessee that a friend of my parents bought. Yogi had been abandoned there by his "loving" family. We brought him into our home a few weeks after we got Riley.
We have no idea how old Yogi really is, the vet guessed around eight or nine years old, so now he is probably around eleven. When he was living in Tennessee alone, he lived off lard and other things he found in the trash, so when we got him he was very overweight and had terrible arthritis. Moving is such a hard task for him now, its really sad to watch him struggle.
My family has decided its best for Yogi to be put out of his pain and misery. Its going to be sad to see him go, but its going to be for the best. =[.
What are some stories about your pets?
