It was not fair to keep him going as he was to weak to survive any surgery and at almost 11 years old we felt it would not be right to put him through the procedure.

We were so so lucky to be given the chance to have this beautiful gift from God our Dog Mr. Barney in our lives for so long, he will certainly be missed. We are lost without him already. He loved The Villages and we worried about him making the trip from N.J. to Florida and as it turned out he handled it better than we did.
I've been dreading hearing this news.
It's always heartbreaking to lose a beloved member of your family.
Condolences to you and Priscilla, it's always hard to say goodbye,
You made a humane decision based on your love of Barney.
Nevertheless, you'll miss his sweet smile. I'm so sorry.
