German Shepherds can suffer from hip dysplasia and crippling arthritis in late life.
The question is the quality of the dog’s life. Sometimes it cannot be improved with medication or exercise and the dog is in such pain prolonging its life would increase its suffering.
We are all sorry to see Sultan go but the vets made the best possible decision under the circumstances.
Its sad to lose him though and you never want this kind of day to come as a dog lover.

It’s hard going to the vet and returning
with an empty collar.
