I posted previously about losing our elderly Weim, unexpectedly and a total shock.
We have another 8 year old Weim, and all Luccadog knows is that we took Zen to the vet, and didn't come home with him.
Luccadog has seperation anxiety, we thought he was dealing with the loss quite well, as he has never been on his own.
Last Thursday, I got home from work, to find him in an awful state, he had had a bad accident, there was poo everywhere, floors walls, bed, and he was coated in it too.
I was trying to clean him and the kitchen up, when the next door neighbour waded in, screaming over the back fence, that we shouldn't be allowed to have animals, when I tried to explain that we had Zen put down the previous week, I was told that we had killed him.
I was aghast.
It took 4 hours to clean up the kitchen.
I have had to take the week off work to stay with him (unpaid).
He's so subdued, follows me round like a shadow, doesnt want to eat.
We went to look at a kennel for day boarding yesterday, as there is no way we can leave him at home alone.
I feel we have failed him.
Anyone got any advice?
