So we had to decide to put my dog to sleep. He was a 10 year old English Bulldog. We found out he had cancer so it all happened quickly. He was first dog and it was increadibly difficult! Just had to vent!

    I am sorry to hear that. I think sometimes our animals become a part of our family and the bond is amazing. I hope your dog wasnt in pain and I know it doesnt help but you've done the right thing by him today, as sad as it is.

    May you always have fond memories of him xx

    Definately an unfortunate event. I wish no one ever has to experience.

    Having to see my beautiful Rosie pass in my arms was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. She deserved to have me there in her time of need though, just like she had been for all my worst times.


    I wish you all the best and I am sure your dog lived an amazing life with an amazing owner.

    A few years back, we had to put our boxer down from cancer. I can relate. It's like losing a family member.

    Hugs, prayers, and thoughts for you and your family.

    I know the feeling and I feel for you. I have been married to the same woman for 33+ years. We just recently had to let go of our 14 year old dog. Before that, our 12 year old Dalmatian, before that our 13 year old mutt. Each was difficult and there was some overlap with each dog..we always seemed to have two. We now are on our 4th dog and love her tons.

    But still, we miss each furry buddy and they become family members. it is never easy, but it does get better over time. We are still smarting over our recent loss, but at least now we can say her name and not break down.

    Good to vent and blessings to you and your home.

    I am so sorry. I had to do that about 2 years ago. Hardest thing I had to do. But the greatest last gift we can give them. :cry: :brokenheart:
