How do you get past the guilt of putting your beloved dog down?
He wagged his tail as the vet was injecting him and I was holding him, singing and crying telling him he’s my good boy. I feel like a traitor and murderer.

In the past 20 years I had to put 2 of my dogs down. I still have a bit of guilt about the first one but only because I kept thinking he was going to miraculous get better - so he was in pain for a few days longer then he had to be before I faced the fact that it was his time to pass on and called the vet.
One of the ways I got over the loss of both my dogs was by listening to the song Old King. It is about a guy that was torn up about the lose of his old hound dog – until he starting thinking about the grand life that dog had lived.
Cheers!
