this reminds me of my aunts dog that she had for 12 years named Murray. She was one of the big dogs(forget the breed) it was so playful. had to put it down. it was on a thursday the night b4 a big game against our rivals and we was up till 2 friday night b4 i got home. it was sad man and i could feel for ya. i was close to that dog.
I had to carry our first pet out of the house on a sheet of plywood. My dad looked me in my eyes and asked if I could pull the trigger. (He loved her). I couldn't. I was 14.
I'm not allergic, and I do like cats. They're just such azzholes. They will spend 20 seconds spitting up a hairball, then smell it, then bolt like a bat out of h3ll. WTF????
hahahahaha, I think if I wasnt SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO allergic to them I would like them.
Yea, It suxed. I had no problem putting a sholvel to a possumm, and then drowning it in a trash barrel last fall, but tonight was sad. She was sick. She had Cushing diesies, blatter stones, was going deaf.... So she is at peace now. But thanks for the well wishes.
I feel for ya Marc last time i had a dog pass away, it was a year and a half before we felt okay about adopting a new one. Don't let yourself feel guilty, you gave the dog a warm loving home, i'm sure she lived a very happy life. Do exactly what she would want you to do; when you're ready, go out and SAVE A LIFE by adopting a new dog or puppy. There are millions of great dogs who need homes
guess I've been kinda lucky, never actually had to put down a pet myself. My parents and I had a cat that lived to be 18. In the end, he was blind, and eventually got where he couldn't find his way to the litter box..and so would go wherever he was. I DID have to take him to the vet to be put to sleep though...it was kinda hard, but I knew it was better for him. Then my parents got another cat, he was a couple of years old, and got in a fight that cut his arm up pretty good. We took him to the vet to get his arm worked on,and get him nuetered...he had an allergic reaction to the anasthetic and died on the table. Then, my parents got another cat, he lived for about 13 years...then it got to where he wasn't getting around too good, and then one day my dad came home and found him dead in the hallway. As for dogs, most of them got given to other people when we moved, because they were big dogs (usually labrador retrievers), and sometimes because the new place we moved to didn't allow pets. The only one that died was a lab that we had in a kennel in the back yard. She had a choke collar on one day, and figured out somehow how to get over the fence. Don't ask me how, the doghouse was under a piece of plywood that covered that part of the kennel, maybe she pushed the doghouse to the open part of the kennel and then got up on it. Anyway, my dad went out to feed her and evidently when she jumped the fence, her choke collar got caught on the top of it and so it choked her to death.
thats all the animals that I remember either dying or having to be put to sleep. anyway, Marc, sorry to hear about your baby having to be put down.
I am looking into a new member of the family very soon. I am thinking a rotty pup
