I had to put my dog down today

Saddest day of my life. I am sick to my stomach. Literally.

He was 13 and had heart disease. His heart more than doubled in size in less than eight months. His lungs were full of fluid. He lost so much weight.

We were going to put him down in November but the change in meds dosage worked really well and gave us four extra months with him

That is the worst thing about our beloved pets, they just dont last as long as we want. Forever isnt too much to ask is it? I lost my Aussie to Mammary chain cancer. She was bleeding internally, she was so bruised on her belly . She felt bad , slept mostly , but would eat some. I found her bleeding from her mouth and I took her in and they told me she was suffering . He came back in and gave her a treat while we were telling her goodbye and she perked up and acted like normal. They told me it was only a matter of days . So we had them do it. I understand how you felt. We had her 16 years. She was my buddy .

And @Jenny1234 I am very sorry for your loss. Hugs

@TexChik When they are not having anymore fun, it’s time. They just don’t last long enough.

@jackson55 Well it had to be more serious than not having fun to coerce me into agreeing with the vet. She was in great pain. I couldnt bear that for her.
