I know the OT can be a odd place sometimes, but the one thing that unites us is the love we have for our pets.

Beorn's time came calling on Wednesday after she had taken a turn for the worst on Christmas Eve. After rushing her to the hospital Christmas night and a few overnight stays with medicine and observation, it was clear she wasn't progressing positively for a 12-13yo big dog. So, with advice from the vet I made the awful but necessary decision many of us have had to make, and let her go. She went peacefully while I scratched her favorite spot on top of her head. It was 10 years to the day since I'd adopted her and she was the absolute best.

Do me a favor and give your pups a hug for her.

RIP Beorn. I will miss you forever.

Lost two of my dogs this year too. Lost one Father’s Day and another about a month earlier. I wanna believe that we will see them on the other side of eternity. I’m sorry for your big loss. Beautiful dog.

Have a 1 year old golden retriever and am absolutely dreading the day that I will have to do this, even if it's a long ways away (hopefully). RIP Beorn, and sorry for your loss

I dread the inevitability of having to go through this……..even to the point of hoping I go before they do…………..then worry about, if I do go first, I don’t feel that there’s anybody who would care for them after I’m gone the way I do.

I’m sorry for you loss!

I adopted two of the best dogs I’ve ever been around back in 2021. They have absolutely brought immense joy to our family. These posts remind me that the time we have with these animals is never enough. Dogs just freaking rule.

so very sorry for your loss. I have had to make the decision on several pet cats - including one that was 16 - my wife got her as a kitten and had her for literally 1/2 her life at that point. we have a pup now who is about 10 - and when the day comes, it will be the hardest decision I think i could make.

Sorry. I had to do this last year for my lab. She was my girl for 15 years. Miss her everyday.
