Cried like a baby yesterday....

Been there.

My ol dog lived almost 20 years, had to do that in grad school. Once those kidneys started to fail and he couldn't hardly get up anymore, it had to be done. You could see it in his eyes. Pain.

My mom couldn't do it, almost wouldn't let me do it, but the suffering had to end.

The pain is over for the dog (something to remember), it is those that move on that have to deal with the sadness. Same goes for our people when it is time for life's final chapter.

I'm surry for your loss, but you did the right thing Zod.

that sucks Zod...very sorry to hear it. Losing a pet is always a very hard thing and having to bring it in to get put down makes it even worse. But I agree with others...good on ya for stepping up and taking care of it. Know that Daisy had a great life and is no longer in pain.

Man card intact!

Took ole Daisy to have her put down.

She had gone downhill fast over the last couple months. Gotten to a point where she was uncomfortable all the time. Yesterday morning she needed my help to get up from laying down, so it was time.

Took her to the vet, who agreed it was the humane thing to do.

She laid there with her head in my lap looking up at me as I petted her and assured her what a good girl she had been. Wasn't 20 seconds until she was asleep.

I won't lie. I didn't cry. I sobbed. I had not sobbed like that for many years, probably since the passing of my paw paw. Losing a pet sucks. I can't even imagine what it must be like to lose a spouse or child. Must be one thousand times worse. Makes my heart really go out to those families that much more.

Anyways, I think this qualifies as one of those times men are allowed to cry in the man rule book. Someone please verify.

I'm sorry to hear of the passing of your friend, brother. She was a beautiful pooch and I know you miss her. Good on you relieving her of her pain and suffering. Chin up, bro
