Saying goodbye to soulmate rescue dog who saved his life | Rescue Vet with Dr Scott Miller

"We do it for them, not for us" If only everyone saw dying with dignity as this. It is SO hard to let go, but it is a blessing for the one suffering.

I think the hardest part about having a dog (pet in general) is making the decision to break our own hearts by doing what is best for them- but that pain and heartbreak is the price we pay in return for the unconditional love and support they give us. My heart and empathy are with Chris and his family. Rest well sweet baby girl - run free and leave the pain behind knowing you were so very loved. <3

Cried like a baby.It's always hard to let go even if you know it's the right thing to do.Beautifully done.

This really had me in tears. I recently lost both of my senior cats, age 13 and 18 within a year of each other. Just last month, my sister lost both of her dogs, both unexpectedly, within 3 weeks of each other. Trying my best to help her through her grief.

No such thing as just a dog, just a cat. They become and are an integral part of our family and our lives.They teach us love and all they ask for back is our care and love.

Hard to watch. Had me crying. They had a great life together. Thanks Dr. Scott.

Release from pain is the gift we can give our pets. We then take over that pain because we love them so much. Am in tears for the family.

We are having to face this with our 14 year old schnoodle. She came into our lives at a very difficult time. She brought us much love that helped us heal. Now we are facing the final goodbye. I know she will want us to live healed and not broken. A depth of grief. Thank you for sharing this with us.

They are never gone. They stay in your heart and mind forever 🐾❤

As Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II observed in her condolence speech for the victims of the American 911 terrorist attack: "Grief is the price we pay for love." The depth of the mutual love between Chris and Jet is obvious; the selfish thing would be to make her stay, but I respect their courage in paying the price of doing the right thing. Much respect to you all.

Crying like a baby wasn't in my plans today but here we are 😢😢😭 Rest peacefully sweet girl! You will continue to be loved thru eternity! " "If there ever comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart, I'll stay there forever." 🕊

Thank you for posting this video. I have a dog, Goldy, who is 13 years old. She has been declining over the last 6 months. I have tried different medications but it has been getting worse. I know what has to be done but I have not been able to do the last step. Seeing this video made me realize that I have to as I am not being fair to her. She is deaf, losing her sight, can not control her bladder and her legs give out so we can no longer go for walks. I understand what Chris Lewis was feeling. So again I thank you for posting this and making me realize I am being selfish not to let her go.

She forfilled her life’s purpose and now she knows you are ok, with a loving fiance and a beautiful baby boy, she was ready to depart from life.Run free sweet girl, you will be forever loved and remembered.

It's 24 years since my Charlie (cattle dog).left. His gravestone says 'loving Wild Wolf spirit you linger in my dreams'. I think of him everyday.

Dignified and peaceful . How beautiful. Also sad, but full of love as well. ❤❤❤

The worst thing was I wasn’t strong enough to hold and talk to my baby without wailing/crying. I felt I let her down. I am so happy that Chris was able to hold and talk to her through the end. Beautiful Jet! ❤

Sometimes you don’t know how important having an animal by your side is until you experience it yourself. I know she’s in a better place now!

I lost my beautiful Labrador girl to cancer 8 months after being diagnosed . I laid with her on the vets table, telling her she was my baby girl and I will always love her , I miss her more every day,but I know she is out of pain and with my mum❤

Lost my horse of 24 years this week...It was the hardest day....Started watching this but couldn't go on...We love them but it is the kindest last thing we can do....Enjoy every day with your animals.😢

I cried all the way through this video, watching Jet's story and looking at my dear boy, Peanut, whose time is coming very soon.
