Senior dog with swollen glands, lumps, shaking. Should I put him down?

Question

Hi my red heeler male dog is 15/16 years old.. all of his glands are very swollen. I keep finding little lumps coming up on his body. His back legs are starting to shake more then normal. His eyes are starting to go cloudy Is it best to just get him put down. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Male | 15 years and 3 months old

It sounds like he may be suffering from Lymphoma which is a terminal disease at his age. you should take him to the vet ASAP to get it confirmed, if this is the case- euthanasia should be considered.
