My heart hurts so much for you and your dog. I know the heartbreak you are suffering and pray for you both.
It is always difficult to lose a famoly member. I have four resting by the back fence a few acres back. Each time I vowed nevermore, then a stray would simply appear and take up residence in my house and my heart. You are a good fur baby parent. Praying you find peace and pleasant memories.
I’m having my wife’s 17 year old cat put down tomorrow.
She went blind last week. Can’t get around well and no longer uses the litter box.
Chin up. Maybe it’s something that’s treatable. Heaven knows it’s tough. Prayers up for your companion, regardless. I just asked the Lord that our late, loved canine family meet her at the end of the Rainbow Bridge upon arrival.

All of us DallasBiff, know the love that exists between our dogs and selves/families. Saying goodbye to our dogs we love is so very hard.
Don’t let her suffer mate, love her to the very end inc. taking her out of suffering. You will, at least I believe, see her again in heaven.
I hesitated commenting, not sure what to type. Hard for me.
Don’t wait too long (I did and it haunts me worse than the pain you’re feeling now).
I’m so sorry.
A good dog is hard to lose. I’ve been thru several of them. Sucks every time.
Toughest pup you'll ever meet. Strongest life force I have ever seen in a person or animal .
It was hard. And, honestly, I let it go on longer than I probably should have.
She wasn't in pain and never stopped eating but she had dementia (I think she was about 16-17 years old) and finally got to where she was falling and couldn't get up.
Such a good pup.
Terrible, they lean on you to stop any suffering. Went through the same 3 months ago, still sad about it.
In December we had to put down our 12-year-old cat who had cancer, who was my most favorite. I cried for days and have been in a fool’s paradise believing that I was “over it”.
Last night I dreamed about her, all bright-eyed and playful, and I sobbed for hours. (Still crying.) She was so real in the dream that it’s like losing her all over again. Having pets is so good, but losing them is devastating.
Expect to never stop grieving on some level, but know that the pet’s suffering is not acceptable. Terrible choices.
Sorry for you loss. If she is suffering it is the best you can do. Just remember you gave her the best life, to have loved and be loved.
People like you HATE dogs. Guess what I’ve worked in shelters and done rescue. I know exactly what kind of *asshole you are.
Thank you everybody for your kind wishes and prayers. My dog died peacefully, and is out of her pain.
If you need some help getting your anti-psychotic RX refilled, I'd be happy to send a few bucks. Perhaps a nap would help?
So sad for you. I’m an evangelical Christian and, unlike many, I believe there’s a good chance we’ll have our beloved pets in Heaven with us. Mom believes that, too — a Baptist preacher’s wife for 50 years. Nothing says we won’t.
One day at a time.
Very sorry, DallasBiff. Our fur babies are truly part of our family, often more faithful than many people. I believe there is a Rainbow Bridge. God bless.
