"That" day, the one that is inevitable but hard to deal with...Putting one of our 2 oldest dogs to sleep today...

It's ruff

I've lost many canine friends in my lifetime.
Extremely tough on the emotional side once
that bond has grown strong. Your friend was
loving, loyal, and trusting. The routine of
exercise, feeding, and close companionship
now a blank space in your life. My heart
goes out to you.
You can fill this emptiness with a new
companion, which will help to alleviate
the feeling of loss when concentrating
on a new friend. Dogs are truly a gift
from god.

Thanks!!
We have 4 more, not counting the micro-mini pig (40#)...
Tony is Bitty's brother, and the same age.

We are getting close to this dreaded day also. Our ever faithful and loving KC has slowed significantly. He turned 14 in September. We cannot predict the whens, but just know that it will be coming...which sucks.

I am very sorry to hear of your pups distress. It sounds like you have given her a great life. Now, she needs peace. Knowing this does not alleviate the pain. They leave a huge hole in our hearts. I still tear up when I think about my Schatze, who passed almost 7 years ago.

I knew you’d catch that, but in all seriousness, bringing your pet in to be put down is heartbreaking. The only thing that’s worse is being present when a family member dies.

you did your part giving your time and love! now there is no suffering, again you did the right thing.

Thanks to all of you!! Ever since I thought about the "Celebration of CARCASSES" story from Shell Beach so many years ago, I'm doing fine.
