I lost my Sugar suddenly when a tumor on his liver ruptured one morning. He couldn't stand nor walk and yelped when I lifted him into the car to rush to the vet's. I had to let him go. He was almost 16, a cancer survivor, and an amputee. From the first sign something was wrong until we released him from pain was less than two hours.

Hugs to you and your beloved puppy.
