Jeter has been with us for 9 years and our time with him is coming to an end. We discovered a tumor on his neck and we are just letting him rest comfortably. Scott and I are hoping we do not have to make the dreaded decision so he is no longer suffering. Annoying at times, he has become a huge part of our family. Our " first " child" and purchase together. We are going to miss him so much when he is gone.
