I know no one will be up, but needed to put this down.
My beautiful cocker spaniel was pts yesterday at almost 17 years old, and I can't sleep. I've come downstairs and it's so empty, despite my two cats being around. Feels worse this morning than it did yesterday.
She had dementia and had deteriorated for the past 2 years, physically she was living ok, apart from having accidents daily in the house for the past 12 months. Mentally, she declined culminating in an afternoon of crying and barking and pacing in distress, which finally made our decision.
Our vet knew her well and was really supportive and gave us the guidance, and reassurance we needed, I felt so guilty taking her. She didn't seem to know what was going on and it was really peaceful. I have been dreading this day for years, I know it was the right thing to do for her.
Don't even know why I am posting this.... I miss her so much.
