I can't put it off no longer :(

[Toonlass]

I'm going to have to get my dog, my baby girl put to sleep. I've been saying it for months but i can't put it off any longer. She is messing all over the place and snacking at people. And with my LO crawling now, its just too risky. I have had her since she was 6 weeks old and has been my best friend for 9 years. This is going to be the hardest thing i have ever had to do xx

 

[Mamafy]

Have you tried if you could get her rehomed?

Toonlass, is there no rescue that could take her- a breed specific one? Or do you think there is something underlying her snapping at people that is causing her to do be the way she is?

A change like that usually means that the dog is in pain or some such thing. Oh sweetie. I am dreading the day something happens to either of our two as they really are our kids I can only just imagine how you feel

 

[Toonlass]

She is senile mamfy, she used to be such a wonderful friend but she has become snappy and started going toilet all over the house, she has a skin condition also so i can't see anyone wanting her. She is unhappy in herself, she wanders around the house crying all the time even when i have fed, walked, cuddled her, its like she is lost. She has slept in bed with me for 9 years and i think re homing her would be more cruel than to put her to sleep. I have rang the vet and the vet agrees it is the right course of action and i have an appointment for 5;50 this evening. xx

 

[ToffeePop]

Toonlass. I'm really sorry that you're in this situation.

I couldn't let my dog get put to sleep unless she was in so much pain. Touch wood she is healhty.

[Rosie's Mummy]

Oh how sad, Im really sorry you can be reassured by the fact that you know you are doing the right thing by your dog and that the vet agrees. It doesnt make it easy though, not by a long shot. Best wishes xx

I'm sorry chick

 

[Mervs Mum]

Aww Toon I cant even begin to imagine how you feel. You know my 2 pooches are my babies too.

 

[Toonlass]

She's gone. She was so brave, she didin't even flinch when the needle went in. I was shocked at how quickly she went to sleep. It was very dignified for her and they gave me as much time as i wanted to hold her.

I can't describe the grief i feel right now, she was my baby, my best friend, and an amazing companion.

RIP china, mammy loves you so much sweet heart xx
