You know what's best for him and you know when it's time to let him go. He'll have good days and he'll have bad days. He may not have as good of days as he used to, but neither do most adults that I know! He has a new best high, and that's okay. You won't prolong his suffering to prevent your broken heart, but cherish every day you have left.
Quote from a 6 year old, “People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life — like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right? Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don’t have to stay for as long as we do.”

Guessing the 29yr old is a horse. I can't imagine when my wife's oldest horse goes. Shes 16 or 17 now, first horse and shes had her since the horse was 5. My wife has moved way up in the dressage comps and has blown past the horses skill level but she still loves on her the most. Now I'm the one stuck (attempting) riding her and have my 1st show at the end of the month. It will be horrifying for everyone I'm sure but the horse is a saint so I'll survive.
