Putting down a dog has to be one of the worst things you’ll ever do

2020 the gift that keeps on giving :crying:
We had to put down our family pet of over 10 years. Wife and I adopted him just after we got married.

Sorry for your loss man... I've had some terrible days due to that. Like Rip said from "Yellowstone"- "Id rather kill 1,000 men than put down a horse" (dog) in this sense.

I feel for ya man. I’m afraid I’m about to go through the same thing with my 6 year old lab. He’s slowly losing his motor functions and Vet believes it is a brain disease with no feasible solution. Timing couldn’t be tougher with our first child coming Wednesday.

Cried when I carried our greyhound into the veterinarian office to be put down . What an awesome couch potato she was .

I've lost 2 dogs and 2 cats this year. One dogs was 15yo and was just old the other was a year old BMC that was going to be a jam up squirrel dog, she got bit by a snake. Really hurt losing my girl and I don't normally let things like this bother me.

Sorry to hear. Close second to that shitty feeling is the first time you get home and the dog isn't there.

I don't have to worry about that w my breed. They are known for heart problems. The heart murmurs usually get them long before old age does.

It's a hard decision to make .... and harder to follow thru with.
3 dogs - 1 cat - and the Pug just turned 14 years old.

Sorry for your loss. Not to be cold blooded, but getting another dog to fill the void of the one you lost is a good idea. Lotta comfort having a dog at your feet or in your lap when mourning the loss of the previous one.

Man, I am so sorry. That is such serious suckage. Give another pup a chance at a happy life in a loving home.

Fukk i hate these threads. Sorry for your loss baw. It really is like losing a family member. I had one killed by coyotes a few years back and I didn't sleep well for about a year. My old lab is 12 now and I'm dreading it.

Put my dog Buddy down about a month ago, and I’m still feeling it. So sorry. It does get better with time, but I think you just learn to live with it. They are such a part of our lives, they leave a hole when they’re gone. Have a good drink, smoke a cigar, and think about the fact that they loved you just as much as you did them.

Been there done that, he watched me did his grave the day before my vet came by to do the deed. Funeral procession came by to give him all the treats he wasn’t allowed to have prior. Still makes me cry.

We put down ours earlier this year. Fricking horrible, will never stay for another one.
Worst part was he deteriorated so quick and it came out of no where. Got home from work trip, brought him to the vet and put him down less than two weeks later.

Sorry for your loss, man. I know it doesn't feel like it, but the pain and feelings of guilt and remorse will go away. They never live long enough and you did the right thing. A dog never wants to live in suffering, they just cant tell you that. The selfish thing would be to keep the animal in pain or in a way of life they dont deserve (incapacitated, etc). He is at peace and you will find yours soon as well.

I’m sorry. It fricking sucks. I had to put down my 12 year old gsp a month ago. She developed cancer in her spine and went downhill in a little over a week. We would towel carry her to the back yard and she tried her damndest to walk and go potty on her own but it was too much for her. The hardest part was watching her deteriorate so quickly. We kept her comfortable and loved for that week and held her til the end. shite I’m tearing up now typing this.
Side note: we carried her from Spanish fort to Baton Rouge for a neuro consult with dr boogie yates. He was awesome. Highly reccomended even tho he delivered some pretty bad news.

Did it two weeks ago. Her dog and he was around long before me, and I still miss that little guy every time I walk in. Lost my dog in Jan 18 and still miss him, too.
