If he is in pain his time is now. Yes, it will be one of the most painful decisions of your life. Hug him as much as possible, tell him how much you love him and all the happiness he vested on you. I had to put Blair Amanda to sleep. Very painful.

What a lot of grief. I'm sorry you have to go thru this. We know our dog friends will most likely not be with us for as long as we live. You've loved him & given him a good life & now it is time. Take good care of yourself thru all this and know that it does get easier.

Not the stories we were hoping to get when you told us about this reunion posting your friend picture. That's a fact of life, things usually don't work the way we expect. The only thing we can do is to enjoy what we can and try to cope with the balance.

I am so sorry. That is a lot to handle. Hope you have people to support you!

You have my sympathy. Experiencing three traumatic events at once is extremely stressful. Take good care of yourself.

I am so sorry. I wish I knew what to say to make things easier, especially with your pup. I'm still wrestling with the loss of my pooch back in May.

Omg.... he is beautiful. What a horrible decision to have to make (with regard to timing). I’m so sad for you. Hang in there.

Awww. Sometimes the shit comes a little to fast. So sorry about your dog.

Sorry for your loss. Sucks to lose a friend and a dog...

Sad to hear this.

Oh man... I'm so sorry. I really wish I could just throw out something to make you laugh right now.

Wow, he's so precious - those eyes are swoon-worthy. I'm so sorry that what began as a real blast of a weekend has turned into such sorrow for you.

Wishing you buoyancy through the storm, friend.

Oh I am so sorry. My mum died recently and that same week someone emptied by 81 year old dad’s bank account. Also, my American bank card got stopped and I was stranded in London with no money. When shit happens it seems to happen in a big cluster.
I can’t imagine how awful you are feeling. Dogs are like family. Don’t cut yourself off from others as you go through this. Ask family and friends to support you if you have a support network. Or you can get bereavement support - even for a pet. Ask your vet. They should know where Dog parents can go for support. Big hugs ? You will do the right thing, because there is no wrong or right way to follow or feel in situations like this. Xxx

Unfortunately I can relate all to well to that losing friends thing. There has been way too much of it going around lately. But your dog, too? That's a whole different level that has to be really hard. Sorry it's happening.

My condolences Tom. Hugs.

Sorry to hear about your friends but very saddened to hear about your dog. Put my yellow lab down a couple years ago. She was the best dog ever and her passing can still bring a tear. Hang in there.

So sorry you're having such a rough time. (((hugs)))

Take some time off for yourself and get away for awhile, take a break. You need it. Having shit hit you like that with triple whammies of crap can really play it's toll on your mental health over all.

How are you doing? Hanging in there, I hope.

You'll decide when to let your friend go...to deliver the ultimate act of love. ((((HUGS))))
