I can't like this either - watching them go or having them leave suddenly, I'm torn with the easier path.
My intuition is that there is no easy path.

I feel your pain Tangie - most all of us have been there & it still hurts years later.

I've been there 3 times since I bought my house 31 years ago.

I still have 3 clay paw prints still in the boxes from when they were cremated.

I just can't even open them. Seriously.

I look at their pictures sometimes.

we just keep the cycle going or else we'll wallow in grief and despair, the newest ones helps keep you a little more grounded an a bit more distracted from the pain until over some passing time it really helps to ease the sorrow.

Terminal bone cancer, 2-3 months.

I'm fucking sick.

Mass on right rear leg, vet says it will spread to lungs and internal organs. And bone could eventually break.

They gave her steroids and tram-adol. If she wasn't 13, amputation would be an option. But vet said even when they amputate in a younger dog, cancer may have already microscopically spread enough to start internal tumors.

Happier days from last year. This hurts to look at right now. Bad.

Cancer is a real son of a bitch.
It sucks losing your best mate.
Dont know what to say really, hits close to home from losing Duke the same way back in February.

This big boy broke our hearts when cancer got him at 7 years old.

This little girl was with us for 13 years & she finally succumbed to old age.
Neither occasion was anywhere close to easy & I miss them both terribly.

We lost her today.

After the vet told us about her terminal bone cancer, it's as though she understood English and just got depressed and shut down.

Wouldn't drink, eat, pee, poop, walk or even stand up. She just shook like she was freezing cold.

They put her to sleep an hour ago. That 2-3 months went by in 36 hours.

I loved her so much.

Sorry to here that. No more suffering and pain for her, or for you to have to watch her go through it. Hope you feel better. Heres a pic of mine when she was a pup to cheer you up a bit.

Same here Tangie - I have felt your pain enough to know how bad it hurts.
I'm sorry for your loss and I know it sounds trite, but it is not.

Sorry for your loss Tangerinegreen555.

A friend just posted a pic of her new puppy. Bernese Mountain Dog. Never heard of it before. I thought it was an Australian Shepherd. She is beautiful.
