he's gone.

[Rowgtfc72]

Just had to do that last trip to the vet and leave lead in pocket, no dog. Holsten was sixteen and a bit an the maddest best jack Russell you could ever want. Miss you old dog x

I'm so sorry for your loss. You did your best by him and gave him a peaceful end x

Remember the happy times you had with him, the pain will pass

X X

Im sorry , I know how it feels - it breaks your heart - take care.

:( so sorry. xxxx

Couldn't read and run, lost mine 2 months ago, heartbroken, know we did the best thing by having her PTS, thoughts are with you xx

I'm so sorry. The pain does pass, however slowly it may seem, but the memories last a lifetime x

Oh I'm so sorry!
xx
(I think we need a doggie bone smiley)

sixteen years- a marvellous age.

you must have given him a great life.

x

So sorry for you xxx

Sorry to hear this sad news. X

Didn't mean to come across insensitive.
Sorry if I did.

Spoiling fat jack at the minute, don't think she realises he's gone yet, they had 11 years together.I've had a week to get used to it and it helps knowing it was the right thing to do. I'm not really a sentimental old sod but posted really to let people know that sometimes the hardest thing to do is certainly for the best. Not all dogs die of old age in their sleep,sometimes we have to make that desicion for them. Read lots of posts by people agonising over whether to pts or not at the end of the day its the last kindness you can show a faithful friend. My thoughts are with anyone who has had to do this recently or is making the hard choice at the minute.

Even if you're not sentimental, you deserve thanks for your wise words.

Carry on spoiling fat Jack!

Thinking of you . Poor fat jack hope that she is ok when she realises she has lost her buddy .
its so unfair that so few dogs just die in their sleep and we have to help them move onto their next life

Awww, really sorry. A good long life but it's never long enough. x

I agree with you row and I don't know of any dogs that have died in their sleep:( my friend always says it's better to do it a week too early than a week too late and I do agree tbh
I am sorry, it's very hard xx

It's such a horrible decision to have to make, I really feel for you.

I remember the last walk with ours to the vet, and holding her as the light left her eyes. Bringing a tear to my eye now and it was 3 1/2 years ago.

I'm a first time dog owner, and already dread 'that' day. I never new how animals could make you feel so attached to them. So my thoughts are with you during your loss.

Thinking of you. Remember the good (and the, wtf did you just do!) times. X

I'm not really a sentimental old sod

Course your not Rowgtfc and

Just posted to say that, in very recent times, I have been where you are now. It's hard.

Really hard. Then I remember those wonderful years with my girl. I earned this hard time and it was worth it.

Best thoughts to you and your 'maddest best Jack Russell'.

Fat jack spent two days round my ankles an off her food but has now gone back to spending her time outside in their kennel. I had a couple of wobbly days. But have come to the conclusion he had sixteen good years isn't suffering any more and I had the privilege to know him for fourteen of those. And I get to chuckle at my less than girly dog currently sat. Glaring at me in a lovely sparkly pink collar dd picked for her!
