Sorry.
The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. October 18, 2019, 09:21 PM

tankeryankerThe only fault of a dog is they leave us too soon. I just went through this with my 10 year old boxer. I am very sorry for your loss.

Jim ShugartMy girl turned 16YO last February. Her hips bother her sometimes and she can see and hear well enough to get around in the house. She can still go up and down stairs. Her end will be coming pretty soon.
I pray that she will die in her sleep, but her vet says that only about 5% of dogs die in their sleep. I've put down several dogs before, one with a .22 LR to the back of his head. Deciding when to end Merlot's life will be the most difficult decision of my life.
Sorry for the ramble: I feel your pain.

I feel it when I sorrow most;

erj_pilotThere is nothing worse than putting down a pet. My condolences...

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 October 18, 2019, 11:09 PM
dsietsThe best family are fur family. And why it's so hard when we lose them.
I'm sorry for the loss of your buddy.

konata88Very sad. My condolences. It’s hard losing a beloved pet that loves you so unconditionally. I’m still not ready for another dog; I’m not ready to go through the pain of loss again yet.

irreverentI’m so sorry.
I’m building up courage for next week. I’ll have to put down my 17yo girl and still need to make the appt. She’s just not going to make it much longer and I don’t want to see her struggle anymore. She’s spanned so many important parts of my life, and been such an amazingly loyal dog, I hate to let her go.
My heart goes out to you.

RHINOWSOSorry, it always sucks.
Had to do it 3 weeks ago myself to a majestic beast of mine, a dog I really really bonded with and was 'mine'.

1s1kSorry for your loss. Our dog goes with my wife to work and when they both go back after a vacation the dog gets greeted way before my wife. The office will seem very dull for a long time.

RileyWe are very sorry to hear. We just lost one a couple weeks ago to a spleen tumor and have one in chemo for lymphoma.
Do not send me to a heaven where there are no dogs.
