    Sorry to hear that Kiwijames.
    Unfortunately I have no real world experience of which to offer advice.
    However I'm sure that whatever decision you make will be well thought through.

    Lot of sheepdogs have had a leg tucked into their collar to slow them down and develop attention span.
    They can get along pretty well.

    At the vets now. Not really expecting a good outcome as he has gone downhill in the short time between visits.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Thanks everyone for your thoughts. Unfortunately Oskar is booked in for his last visit tomorrow.
    Feeling a bit numb to be honest.

    Gutted mate. Chin up, not an easy decision, but ultimately it's for the best.
    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    That's sad news indeed. If you can take any thing out of this , Know that he has led very happy life in the time he has been your companion and some time this answer is the best solution.
