I had a thread a few months ago, about my best mate Alfie.
We found out he had a tumour in his neck. He has lasted 3 months but now the time has come. Sad
It’s abcessed and become really smelly, he’s still eating, drinking and eating fine.
He’s being put to sleep tomorrow and I’m lost I’m a wreck.
He won’t want to go in the vets tomorrow and will be pulling to leave.
I feel so guilty.

Thanks OP.

Thinking of you, OP, and Alfie. Flowers

I'm so sorry. It's the kindest thing to do, though - better a day, week, month too soon than a day too late.

He’s gone, gave him a walk on the way there and he loved it.
It was really quick, I told him it’s fine to go and thank you for looking after me all this time.
Sleep tight sweetheart.

A peaceful end for Alfie. He's no longer in any pain and spent his last hours with the one he loved most Flowers

You have done the right thing. Flowers

I am so sorry. It is so hard. They have such short lives.

mamarach26 · 05/05/2018 13:24

Thank you all so much.
We get his ashes back next week, at least he’s coming back home. I’m going to have a imprint of his paw too.

Bless you. I have a dog who I completely adore so I shed a tear when I read your posts! He's in a better place now, you did right by him x

MsAdorabelleDearheartVonLipwig · 05/05/2018 18:57

So sorry. This was us three years ago. I feel your pain. Flowers

Lifeaback · 05/05/2018 18:59

I'm so sorry OP Flowers at least he isn't suffering anymore x

Paddingtonthebear · 05/05/2018 19:03

Welling up reading this, I’m so sorry you must be devastated. You’ve done the right thing. Rest in peace Alfie

mamarach26 · 05/05/2018 19:55

It was the hardest thing to do, but we had tried everything and the cancer was destroying him.
He isn’t in pain now and it was so quick.
Thank you all so much. Flowers

I'm so sorry for your loss mamarach, I couldn't help but shed a tear for your lovely brave boy. Thinking of you x

mamarach26 · 05/05/2018 21:42

It’s so strange without him in the house, I miss him so much already. Tomorrow morning will be hard, he always waits for me at the bottom of the stairs. Sad
My other dog doesn’t know what to do with herself, we are letting her sleep upstairs tonight cause she’s never been without him.
My poor boy didn’t deserve this, but he’s not in pain now and no more cancer.
Thank you all again

How wonderful that you looked after him til the end of his life as he looked after you. Much love to you and run free Alfie. 💕

Baylis · 05/05/2018 21:49

I imagine it will be extremely difficult for a while and then slowly it will become easier Thanks your poor other dog too, she must be confused the poor thing. Hope you manage to get a decent nights sleep tonight x

Rassy · 05/05/2018 21:53

I am crying reading this. Sending you big hugs. Our beloved Missy is declining and I know that we will soon have to go through what you are experiencing. Xx

mamarach26 · 05/05/2018 21:57

Thank you, I worked in a vets for years and I know it was the right thing to do but I miss him so much.
Sleep is out of the question with my 9 month old but at least he will distract me. @rassy make the most of her while she is here. Give her a belly tickle from me. Flowers

We had our darling chocolate lab PTS 2 years ago and I still miss her. We have her ashes at home but it's the silly little things you miss. Making that choice is the hardest thing to do, but also the kindest.

Rest in peace Alfie Flowers
