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.

My condolences

Same when I had to put down my cat. I felt so sad and guilty. When her body stopped moving in my lap, I just lost it. I think the vet was a bit disturbed by that and quickly left the room 😳
