Saying goodbye to rescue dog who saved war hero's life | Rescue Vet with Dr Scott Miller
In this episode of Rescue Vet, Dr Scott Miller meets up with friend Chris Lewis, an ex-paratrooper who walked the entire British coastline, a total of 19,000 miles, over 6 years, meeting along the way his rescue dog Jet. Jet's health has been declining rapidly over the last year, and Chris has made the most heartbreaking but brave decision, that it is Jet's time. Chris has asked Scott to help him say goodbye.
Chris & Jet were raising money on their walk for SSAFA, which provides support to the Armed Forces community - if you would like, you can support their cause by donating on their fundraising page: www.justgiving.com/fundraisin...

"We do it for them, not for us" If only everyone saw dying with dignity as this. It is SO hard to let go, but it is a blessing for the one suffering.
Agree. The US has little respect for individual decision making.
Honestly I agree with you but understand that if it is a parent or a child it is so much harder to make that decision. I have had to make the decision for my mother last year to let no further medical intervention on my mom's behalf except to make her comfortable. She passed peacefully the day before Christmas Eve but it was incredibly hard to make that decision. It wasn't like I outright went to kill her. I said keep her comfortable, keep her from suffering as much as possible. The only issue I have with the idea of dying with dignity is that it is only a step or two away from the dystopian society from The Giver. I don't think it is right to give someone else the ability to "help" someone like that and hear them say they "enjoy" the job. It takes a true psychopath to enjoy a job like that. Watching someone die should NEVER be a good thing, knowing you are giving them a medication that will stop their heart or stop their breathing should never be a job they enjoy. Dr Scott has outright said that this part of his job is one no Vet enjoys but understands the necessity of doing it for the animal's benefit. But human beings aren't animals and as much as we like our animals they are not part of our families and you can grieve an animals passing without acting like it was a human baby. I have lost a baby, 32 weeks pregnant but still a baby, and I have lost pets before. They aren't the same, I cried over my pets for a day or two but I sobbed for 2 months at just the thought of my son and actually got quite severally depressed after the loss. Sorry but I can say the dying with dignity that places like Norway are dancing a very fine line that we executed Nazis for after the end of WW2, it is a truly dangerous line. The same line allowed that nurse a while back kill babies who were simply ill.
I also agree. As a seriously chronically ill person, I’m not sure why the medical system is determined to prolong my suffering.
@@jc2385 humans and animals are not the same thing. We can ease peoples suffering, but we don’t hasten their death.
@@jc2385 who mentioned the United States? This is in Australia yes?
I think the hardest part about having a dog (pet in general) is making the decision to break our own hearts by doing what is best for them- but that pain and heartbreak is the price we pay in return for the unconditional love and support they give us. My heart and empathy are with Chris and his family. Rest well sweet baby girl - run free and leave the pain behind knowing you were so very loved.
So very true. All my babies but one died in my arms.
Totally agree. It's the worst decision to have to make
You've said this so beautifully-thank you x
Cried like a baby.It's always hard to let go even if you know it's the right thing to do.Beautifully done.
@crismorin5468 - Me to and I'm 63 years old
Too true! The testament to how hard is displayed by the vast majority of us with tear stained faces just from watching the stories of people and animals we'll most likely never even meet!!v🩷🩷
I did too and the only time your dog will make you cry is the day they die 💔 💞
@@merlinthemagicdog1899 I was one of the lucky ones who had the privilege of meeting beautiful Jet 💝💜
No such thing as just a dog, just a cat. They become and are an integral part of our family and our lives.They teach us love and all they ask for back is our care and love.
Crying like a baby wasn't in my plans today but here we are 😢😢😭 Rest peacefully sweet girl! You will continue to be loved thru eternity! " "If there ever comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart, I'll stay there forever." 🕊
She forfilled her life’s purpose and now she knows you are ok, with a loving fiance and a beautiful baby boy, she was ready to depart from life.Run free sweet girl, you will be forever loved and remembered.
Hard to watch. Had me crying. They had a great life together. Thanks Dr. Scott.
I lost my 19 year old cat last week. One minute he was sitting on my son's lap purring, jumped down and keeled over. He had a massive stroke. He was PTS by our kind vet. Although he was aware of us, his motor function was completely gone. We stayed with him as he crossed to Rainbow Bridge, telling him how much we loved him and thanking him for 19 wonderful years. We lost his brother Harley last October. He hadn't been well earlier that year but was successfully treated. He had his dinner, curled up, went to sleep and never woke up. They were half-Bengals. Now together again and reunited with their lifelong friend, Chico who passed away just shy of his 22nd birthday. Benji was a talkative cat (as was his brother). We haven't got used to not hearing his cat-chat yet. We got his ashes home yesterday so he's back home where he belongs, with us.
@@PythonariaOh dear😢 So sad to read but weren’t you all so lucky. Those incredible ages. My word, you sure did something right. Our hearts crack like an aged porcelain plate, but we go back, do it all again, save another life, and would we have it any other way. Regards and sympathy from Australia.
@@carolcox302 We still have 8 cats, all rescues. The two half-Bengals were the only cats who were not rescues. They were given to me by a work colleague. The story behind them is quite amusing. My work colleague's wife bred Bengals. That year we had a hot summer. At about 2am my colleague and his wife were awoken by a lot of howling and banging around. Thinking they were being burgled, Alan crept downstairs to find the local Tom having his wicked way with their Bengal queen. Alan had left a small window open and the local Tom saw his chance and took it. Non-pedigree kittens were the result so they chose people they knew loved cats and would look after them. Our oldest cat lived to 23. She was also a rescue. I was asked to foster her for one night only. We had her for 15 years. She was 8 years old when we got her. Our cats ages range from 12 years old to 4 years old.
Release from pain is the gift we can give our pets. We then take over that pain because we love them so much. Am in tears for the family.
They are never gone. They stay in your heart and mind forever 🐾❤
I agree they leave a large paw print there
Had to make this decision a year ago...he will be in my heart forever...he gave me unconditional love.😢
Lost my horse of 24 years this week...It was the hardest day....Started watching this but couldn't go on...We love them but it is the kindest last thing we can do....Enjoy every day with your animals.😢
So sorry for your loss.. you are so right about enjoying their company. They make us Humans and bring the best in us, up front.
This really had me in tears. I recently lost both of my senior cats, age 13 and 18 within a year of each other. Just last month, my sister lost both of her dogs, both unexpectedly, within 3 weeks of each other. Trying my best to help her through her grief.
😢😢😢So saddened with this one
My one 12 year old cat 3 weeks ago. They destroy us when they go. 😞 So so sorry for your loses.
@@JohnSmith-uy7sv Sorry for your loss as well.
I know how it feels to lose a cat unexpectedly. My first cat Trouble passed away in a traumatic way. We'd grown up together. My condolences to you and your sister.
So sorry for your loss😢😢😢😢
Dignified and peaceful . How beautiful. Also sad, but full of love as well. ❤❤❤
It's 24 years since my Charlie (cattle dog).left. His gravestone says 'loving Wild Wolf spirit you linger in my dreams'. I think of him everyday.
We are having to face this with our 14 year old schnoodle. She came into our lives at a very difficult time. She brought us much love that helped us heal. Now we are facing the final goodbye. I know she will want us to live healed and not broken. A depth of grief. Thank you for sharing this with us.
So sad for you folks. 🙁
As Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II observed in her condolence speech for the victims of the American 911 terrorist attack: "Grief is the price we pay for love." The depth of the mutual love between Chris and Jet is obvious; the selfish thing would be to make her stay, but I respect their courage in paying the price of doing the right thing. Much respect to you all.
I cried all the way through this video, watching Jet's story and looking at my dear boy, Peanut, whose time is coming very soon.
I lost my beautiful Labrador girl to cancer 8 months after being diagnosed . I laid with her on the vets table, telling her she was my baby girl and I will always love her , I miss her more every day,but I know she is out of pain and with my mum❤
The worst thing was I wasn’t strong enough to hold and talk to my baby without wailing/crying. I felt I let her down. I am so happy that Chris was able to hold and talk to her through the end. Beautiful Jet! ❤
Don't be too hard on yrself. I'm sure all she knew was your love for her. ❤
I cried my soul out while saying goodbye to both my senior cats, Mimi and Emil, but I'm sure they knew it all came from a loving place. Mimi's fur was wet with my tears when she went. They know us better than anyone, I'm sure your pet knew why you were so uoset. The important thing is that you were there for them to the very last moment!
That was so heartbreaking beautiful. If only every living creature was as well-loved and cared for as Jet, what a world it would be! God bless you, Chris and Dr. Scott!
Thank you Scott for being there for your friend and Jet. A very beautiful and loving tribute to Jet. I lost my fur baby 10 years ago and I still miss him to this day. He was a wonderful companion and friend.
Brought back going through the same thing with my German Shepherd. 4.5 years later and I still miss her so much. 💔
So sad 😢. One of the wonderful things about Scott is his compassion and understanding of both animals and people. Jet's not in pain any longer. God bless you all.
Thank you, Chris for sharing your and Jet's story of friendship, love and loss. No one can deny the amazing bond you shared and will continue to hold in your heart. It was this week 13 years ago that I said goodbye to my little love. Though I petted her to the end, I wish I'd known she could hear me because I would have tried to stave off the tears and continued to tell her how much she meant to me and that she would always be my Good Girl. Dr Scott, your devotion to your patients and care for their families is evident in every video. I wish all animals were lucky enough to have a vet like you. ❤
Sometimes you don’t know how important having an animal by your side is until you experience it yourself. I know she’s in a better place now!
there is no other place. They don't have souls.
100% truth❤
The most difficult decision but the most loving to make.
Thank you for posting this video. I have a dog, Goldy, who is 13 years old. She has been declining over the last 6 months. I have tried different medications but it has been getting worse. I know what has to be done but I have not been able to do the last step. Seeing this video made me realize that I have to as I am not being fair to her. She is deaf, losing her sight, can not control her bladder and her legs give out so we can no longer go for walks. I understand what Chris Lewis was feeling. So again I thank you for posting this and making me realize I am being selfish not to let her go.
💜
It’s the saddest decision any pet owner faces. My heart goes out to you
It is the most difficult and kindly thing you have to do but she will always be with you 🎉
In memory.
That’s broke me. I’m so glad she was so loved and had the best life with him that was ever possible.
Losing my dead sisters dog Harvey was heartbreaking he was 14 years old
Thankful for your compassion, you know hard it is to lose your heart, dog. You all did the compassionate thing. Grieve for as long as it takes. I've had to make this decision 3 times this past year. My heart dog died May18. I'm still crying most days.
My sincere compassion to you. I was in the same case with three of my cats in the Spring of 2022 after doing everything we can in terms of vets and medication, it was a true ordeal, we thought we could overcome the fate but there was no medical option available unfortunately. In my country the veterinary medecine has a long way to go despite its high cost (😠). And it put an additional unnecessary burden to the ultimate grief.
Beautiful dog, beautiful family, beautiful transition. Thank you Dr Scott, you are an amazing human and vet.❤️💔🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I'm so sorry for your loss of Jet. It is so hard to let them go.
I hope Chris finds another furry friend. Not to replace Jet, but to share more love.
I've said goodbye so many times. The love for our animal knows no bounds. And Scott, you do this so often. Your kindness and love are felt
Thank you for your sensitivity in making this video, heart breaking as it was. Our ultimate gift as a pet lover is understanding when their suffering outweighs our own. Knowing their pain has destroyed that which they love and our pain at losing them will never pass but our memories will live forever. ❤
Your head tells you it is time but your heart tells you no. I had to put my fifteen year old Yorkshire terrier down five days ago. He was in pain and stopped eating and was hiding. He told us it was time. I miss him so much but he is at peace.
The hardest part of owning a pet is when we have to make the most difficult decision we will ever have to make for them when their time comes. We take their pain and suffering from them and ours begins. My deepest condolences to the family. Thank you Dr Scott for being there for Jet, Chris, snd his family. 🙏🙏❤
Saying goodbye to his best friend was such a difficult but kind and generous act. Many of us have made the same decision/s and it never gets easy. Jet wasn't just a dog, she was the best of the best.
What a wonderful tribute to Jet. Fur parents everywhere either know or will know this very trying time as we lose our babies. Dr Scott, you handled this with such respect and dignity, as you do with everything. Blessings to you and to Jet's family.
What a beautiful thing you've done for your friend. ❤
The hardest, the absolute hardest thing to do is let a loved one go. It doesn't matter if it's a human or animal. Chris, you did the right thing. Grieve your loss but also know you are not alone with that kind of grief.
WOW! I'm in tears! I work retail and never have this kind of connection with my customers. I find it so rewarding that you get that. It must be difficult at the same time to be with someone at such a moving moment. Both the dog and the human really needed you! Amazing passage!
They are NOT just a dog! They are a very special part of our heart and family who is there for us through thick and thin and whose love never lessons! I went through this with my Baby and when I "lost" him, I was absolutely broken too! My dog was my everything!! May GOD heal you all up. Remember love NEVER dies and your Baby is watching over you from Heaven with that UNCONDITIONAL love and pride that you know he has for you!!
I Lost my dog at the age of 13 do to cancer the toughest decision that we had to make as a family is to put her down . all my other dogs passed away peacefully . but with our dog she wasn't eating she wasn't moving so I went with her on her last car ride to the vet to put her down we have her ashes and her memorial with us here at home .
The fact that putting a dog to sleep is actually such a quick process is both comforting and heart wrenching. I know I'm going to have to say goodbye to my dog one day. I just hope I can be there next to him when it happens.
Remembering each of my kitties who walked with me through 18 yrs and then another 18 and now, I have become the Cat Mom rescuing every sick, hungry, cold furry feline that finds its way to us. As with Jet, these kitties have filled the voids in life and given such wonderful love and companionship. I don't believe we will ever get over the loss. I still love them as much as if they were still here. With loving prayers for the family 🙏❤️
It hurts, even years after…..
Bless you, Dr. Scott, for being their for your friends and Jett. The loss of a furbaby is the loss of a family member. 💔🐕🌈 Run free in the Summer Fields, dear Jett. P.S. It's not a coincidence that d-o-g and G-o-d have the same three letters as they both give unconditional love whether we deserve it, or not.
Cried so much because I know the part of losing the love of a close companion and part of the family. He thought of her and that is love letting go 😢
Rest in peace beautiful girl and wait for your family to reach the rainbow bridge.
Aww beautiful but heartbreaking 💔 😢
Hope everybody has the same nice vet by his/ her side when it comes to theses situations…
She is again running pain-free and happy. As everyone has said, it's hardest on the grieving.
Incredible family with a beautiful story. Calling these amazing animals furbabies does such a disservice to the truly remarkable breed that is a DOG. What a life Jet lived.
This is how every fur baby should go, loved, peaceful and having lived a full life. As soon as my dogs felt my sorrow over this 1 they came running in to help me through the pain of watching the video. Their cuddles and kisses help remind me of just how much they understand and care. Rest easy Jet and never forget you are and always will be loved.
I have been through this so very many times over the years as I have rescued many as they have rescued me. Euthanasia is the greatest gift we can give them for being the best part of our lives. My heart goes out to the family❤during this journey. Vets are so special for all they do... In the beginning.... And in the end.
What a lucky girl she was to be so loved. Rest in peace, sweet Jet!🌈🐾🐾
This breaks my heart. This dog couldn't have had a more compassionate vet to help her end her suffering and give her peace. May she rest in peace.
Crying my eyes out watching this. Dr Scott your compassion is absolutely amazing. It is never easy to make the decision to help a furbabay cross the Rainbow Bridge. Chris you did the right thing. Just know that Jett knew nothing but love from you as much as you her. She will always watch over you. Rest in Peace Jett. 🌈🌈🌈🐾🐾🐾
RIP sweet Jet. My heart broke for this wonderful man and his family. She was loved beyond measure, and she KNEW it!! Jet, Run with the wind , pain free till you are reunited with Chris!
Thank you for letting us share this moment with you. It was obvious the love you both had for each other. ❤❤
I mourn my Molly(who peacefully passed in my lap, after licking my face, after a gentle & kind euthanasia shot in 9/19) every. Single. Day. Thank God for vets like you, and mine, to help us end our loved one's pain while showing love to us as well. Bless Jet's family❤
I also cried like a baby. Chris, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. RIP Jet ❤❤
I feel for the whole family. I hope Chris has not a relapse. A very dignified and important video. Life is so hard sometimes......and sad and unbearable and still so beautiful....
Sooo hard! We as animal owners face this. Go sweetly to God!
It is so hard to say goodbye when they suffering & you were great for being there for them both.
Beautiful and heart wrenching. It’s the hardest part of having a pet, but also the kindest thing we can do - to let them go when they let you know they are ready.❤❤❤
We give them our hearts, knowing we'll outlive them. Knowing it's the right thing, the kind and loving thing doesn't lessen the pain.
Watching the dog stand there as you all talk she looks fine. No pain
Animals really come into our lives when we need them most...even if we dont know it at the time ❤
So sorry for the loss of your beautiful Jet. You gave her a precious gift. The gift of relieving her pain and letting her go. You have such wonderful pictures and film of her over the years. I'll bet the memories of her will always remain. She was well loved.
Where there is deep love there is deep heartache. Grief is the price we pay for love.🐾
This is one of the most heartbreaking things to have to do… but it also one of the most brave and selfless things a human will ever do for their Furkid… NEVER miss the opportunity to be there to help them cross the rainbow bridge…. NEVER let a Vet take them to another room… NEVER leave ur animal alone without u being by their side… NEVER.
Thank you to Chris for allowing you to share this, Dr. Miller. It's hard to find solid friendship and unconditional love in this world today but our animal companions give it to us. I've met so may people whose grief over their animals was disparaged by others. It's intense and Chris is brave in so many ways to give Jet her dignity and freedom and say goodbye. My heart goes out to him and Kate.
The hardest see you again. But the most kindest for our four legged family memembers when their health gives way to suffering. My heart goes out to all per familues who had to make the difficult choice.
I'm bawling my eyes out before I even watched this video. Took me back 10 years ago when I had to go through thd same for my little Toy Poodle Sophie 💔❤️🙏. Geez this was so emotional to watch, but gee Chris gave Jet the best life. What a privilege to see just a snippet of their life. Dogs really are Family. I hope Chris & family are doing ok since this was filmed. Rest easy Jet. Fly high 🌈🌈 baby girl, no more pain, cross that bridge running free. I'm sure you'll be watching over Chris always. So So brave Chris x Thank you for sharing Dr Scott 🙏🇦🇺🦘. I'm still crying xx❤️❤️
I had the most lovely cat of 22 years and had to put her to sleep. Broke my heart to pieces. She knew all my secrets and when I needed cuddles and then it was gone. My heartfelt condolences. It sucks but eventually you will remember the good things
Sleep well Jet. Wish all animals had the same love throughout their lives that Jet had. 🌈🐾
Blessings to that person who surrendered Jet to Chris at a time when he needed this dog.. so special for all.
Ugh….😩 but a more beautiful tribute to Jet couldn’t have been done. Run free sweet girl💜
Oh the death of your best friend and companion is so hard. It breaks your heart. But you can't let them suffer in pain anymore.
This broke my heart, the saddest and toughest day, but Jet received the ultimate gift of love and friendship from a selfless and heroic owner. So tough for you all but glad you were there, as a vet and a friend, but also for yourself as you also had a long history with this wonderful dog who had a fantastic life with her family until the end 💓🤗
Oh my heart breaks for him a few months ago had to let my beautiful wonderful little man henry go as he had total kidney failure. My Henry kept me going on my dark days but i was blessed & thank our Lord for the 7 glorious years we had together.❤❤
Beautiful and heart breaking. Jet is now at peace, free from pain and you will carry her with you always in your heart Chris. What a team you have been.❤
I adopted a rescue kitty 13 years ago...he was 3 years old. It was a difficult journey for me to say goodbye to him three months ago. My husband died three years ago so my buddy became my best friend. It has been so lonely without both my best friends.
This was heartbreaking to watch, but such a wonderful example of why we love Dr Scott. The way he cares for these sweet little creatures and their human parents is unsurpassed. Thank you for sharing this touching video. Hugs and prayers to all who have had to say goodbye to their beloved pets. I grieve with you all.
So hard and sad but also heartwarming and uplifting. Every person and every animal deserves to live in that level of unconditional love , connection and care.
Heartbreaking 💔 but the best course of action for Jet. Thanks for sharing this very tender event with us, Scott…
Thank you Chris and Kate for sharing this very personal decision and moment with us. I am sitting here bawling my eyes out for what you are going through during this, but also remembering the times when I have had to make the same decision. It's so hard, but it is also the final act of love that we can give them. Rest well Jet, and know that you will never be forgotten.
wish they could do that for us. i struggle every day
Oh that hurt and I felt so for both Chris and his little family and for Scott. The last words my late father said to me as he was dying was, "You never let any of our dogs suffer beyond endurance, why do I have to?" I couldn't tell him "because our laws say so!" so I just squeezed his hand and wet it with tears. He was right! And, I never let any of our many dogs and cats go without hearing my voice and feeling my touch on them until their hearts stopped beating. I dearly loved every one of them and they are all woven into the tapestry of my life, bringing it meaning and colour beyond description. Thank you for sharing your story with us all Chris.....In time Jet will send you another one of her kind who will need your love, and who will have much love to give you all as a family.
GOD GAVE US DOGS, SO WE COULD FEEL LOVE THE WAY GOD LOVES EVERY PERSON, UNCONDITIONAL LOVE. PRAISE JESUS.
I’m breaking my heart watching this it’s the last act of kindness u have done for jet 🙏😢
Something extra special about our sighthounds.... silly smiles and roaches and those amazing zoomies... I’ve almost had my greyhound for a year and know she’ll be a difficult friend to say goodbye too....
This was so beautiful. At the end it’s a privilege to help your baby go with dignity. ❤
I’m in tears watching this. I lost a few pets and it never gets any easier. I have four cats and two dogs now (all rescues) and they are family. My dogs are my best friends and teachers. I feel the best thing I can do for them is to outlive them all so I can give them a happy life and comfort them when their time comes. That way I’ll know they’re safe until the end ❤
Thank You for letting us share this most private, precious, beautiful moment with You and Your Family. That couldn’t have been easy. Jett was and will always be a great Friend to You. She crossed the Rainbow Bridge 🌈 with You by Her side. God Bless You All ♥️🙏
Making the call when it is best for our fur babies is the hardest decision to make, but it really is what is best for them,not us. My vet of 25 years who has been with us through dogs,cats and even a lizard says it best, "We get so many awesome and amazing years with our pets and it ends with one really shite day." Thank you Scott for being there for Chris and Family and for helping Jet cross the rainbow bridge. 😢
Saying goodbye to our pets is heartbreaking. The getting of them and the having them is full of joy but the losing them is full of pain. K
This! Unconditional love, loyalty, purpose and the most beautiful lesson we can learn in life. No wonder Jane Goodall describes dogs as her very favourite animals. My goldie Lily was my Jet and stayed with me in her old age (16 and a half) through a very painful challenging time until she knew I was ok. Then she told me in very definite terms that it was time. Jet is a rare being and her love surrounds you still, you will feel the warm deep echo of it for the rest of your life. Rest in peace beautiful girl ❤😍❤️
