Besides this dog was really stupid. not even cute stupid. Pretty sure she was missing a chromosone. She had a good 6 years.

Pets, as with kids, are financial commitments. Sounds like you couldn't afford both and your dog paid the price.
Did you seriously expect the dog to stay healthy forever? It's fairly common for an otherwise healthy dog to require $500 - $2000 of medical care over there life span. Also, it's not the dogs fault it's dumb, it's your fault.
