smilinjack 0 Posted January 3, 2012 It may be the hardest thing you've had to do, but it's also the kindest. Our chocolate lab was only 8 when I had to make the decision on the phone, while the vet kept her under having discovered massive cancer. As I type I'm the tears but it was without doubt the correct thing to do. Chin up mate, you did right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grumpyowl 0 Posted January 3, 2012 So sorry to hear this ive been through this 4 times and it gets harder everytime.Only animal lovers can understand your loss.we had to do this in november with our 13 1/2 yr cocker spaniel, his ashes still in loft cant face burying them with his ball yet.However we now have a puppy english springer spaniel called Rosie (my names Jim ) for any of you with kids Rosie and Jim.She can't replace the old dog but she's a real charector and gets me out for walks.Find a nice photo put him on your screensaver..

jezza 0 Posted January 3, 2012 when i took our lurcher in to be put down (cancer) I came out blubbing. Damn thing used to annoy me at times too , it was the most disobedient dog I'd ever had , never listened to what i said . I swear it done things to pee me off. I thought it would not affect me having him put down but it probably affected me the most. Especially as he was always waiting to greet me when i got home ....thats the bit i missed the most when he first went.we too had piper cremated , his box of ashes are still in the backroom on a shelf .we'll bury them one day.
