I am really going through it. My dog of 15 years is at the end of her life and I am struggling to put her to sleep.
She is in my bones.
She now only gets up a few times a day and can't hold herself now to pee. I hate seeing her like this even though she is still present in mind.
I know what I must do. Just didn't know it would be this crushing. She is counting on me and I need to accept that this is better for her.
Love your pups while you can.
Sorry to hear that. Same thing happened to me a couple of years ago. It's painful as fuck, but I only keep good memories from my pup. 🫂💜
We once waited far to long with our family dog. Afterwards there was only regret for not doing it earlier. It is tough though 🫂
Thank you
I absolutely feel your pain. I had to say goodbye to this old lady about 6 weeks ago. I've had to deal with some difficult things in my life (As we all have), but driving her to the vets for the very last time was INCREDIBLY HARD. Stay strong🫂.
❤️
Sorry to hear that.
Loss is hard to communicate.
So sorry for your pain; we recently had to dispatch our puppy girl of 17+ years... Here's some of my meditations on the topic, I prey you'll find some comfort there:
It is a horrible choice, but what you say she is counting on you and you can do it for her. Had to do it too and even when it is 12 years ago it waters my eyes. But you have the strength and she will be thankful.
I let the vet come to my home where it felt safe.
🍀🍀🍀
Hopefully have a few more years with my pup. I’ve already mediated on this coming reality. Thanks for sharing and I’m sure you’ll do what needs to be done for your pup.
I made the call 🐾🐾
God bless you and her. I still dream about and talk to my boxer who passed in 2013. We had to agonize over the decision for several days because we were both jello. We both dug the hole to bury him in our front yard, planting a confederate rose on top of his grave. Every time I walk past the site I ask “Who does Mother love?” He will always be in my/our hearts. Reach out to us, early and often; you will need your fam.
I went through the same with my 14 year old dog last year. I still think about her.
oh, I'm sorry 💔
I've only recently discovered the incredible sweet joy of having a dog and I will be wrecked when we get to the place you are now
🫂
