My sweet Buddy

Today, my husband is upset that I refuse to sign off on a loan for $10k for an experimental surgery on his 11 year-old chronically ill dog. It will ultimately put more trauma on the poor creature, but he refuses to listen or let go. Not to mention the kids and mortgage. FML

Sorry, I'm going to get crucified for this, maybe it's because I grew up on a farm and dogs were just pets there. But.. Dogs have a limited lifespan. Actually, I believe in euthanasia for humans as well. I think you should stand your ground.

I'm on your side. It's sad and I sympathize, but your husband has to face reality that his dog is not much longer for this world. At this point, he's prolonging the poor dog's suffering. His grief is clouding his judgement, and he would benefit from counselling.

Yes, but ultimately, the life of human family members would still be more important. Not to mention all the other reasons mentioned.
