Nothing works any more. He cannot stand, he cries when I try to help him up, and there is nothing left on his back legs. I'm going to sleep downstairs with him tonight, and then call the vet out tomorrow.
Broken-hearted. I don't think I'd have beaten cancer to this point without him. The most loyal friend ever. Tonight I carried him outside to look at the night sky one last time, like we used to do.
poor little boy. 🙁 i dread the day with our mutt.
(editted for error)
So sorry to hear this, big hugs
🙁
thats hard just to read that, i feel for u.
Sorry to hear that 🙁
so sorry i know and have felt your pain.
I think I have something in my eye.
man that's horrible 🙁 if it's any consolation at all,at least he will be at peace (not feel any more pain) plus he spent his life with you (sounds like you doted on him).
Gutted for you.
Just tried reading your post to my wife.
I never made it to the end...
So sorry to hear this 😥
Give him a big hug from me
🙁 🙁 🙁
Very sorry to hear that....
Do what's right for him & savour the memories.
😥
He sound like a great friend. All the best for tomorrow.
🙁
My heart goes out to you mate. I lost my cat over 4 years ago and cried for a week
I'm 57
I've been there , know wot ur going through rite now , just be there for him till the end !!!!!!
Oh mate. Honestly you are going to do a good thing and despite how awful you may feel its the right thing for your friend. I still miss my lad having done the same but it's the final act of love and friendship for him.
Never easy and familiarity with the process doesn't help either. Mine always go out with their collar off. All the best for tomorrow.
Sad sad time ....enjoy your last moments together .. 🙁
😥
Dude, gutted for you. I was so lucky that my childhood hound pretty much just kealed over from healthy. Sound like he had good innings, still horrible though. They leave such a massive gap. thoughts with you.
So sorry to hear that. 😥
I think I have something in my eye
+1 . Thinking of you 🙁
So so sad , give te fella a hug from me.
My 11 year old lab is next to me taking up 80% of the couch.
Best friends for ever eh
*hugs*
Sorry Mark 🙁
Hope he goes peacefully.
Think I'll hug mine a bit more tonight ...easy to take them for granted
So very sorry to hear that--knowing that it's for the best doesn't make it any easier.
I can't say anything to make this hurt any less for you but I really wish I could. Sounds like you're making a selfless but difficult decision though.
Both me and the wife are sat here now, welling up and giving some extra fuss to our pooch.
I feel your pain
Bullheart. I will be thinking of you tomorrow. It is tough to lose our most loyal friends...

I had to get our first dog put down two years ago and our cat eight years ago. It is one of the worst things you have to do, but it is the last thing you can do for them.
We have two great dogs now, it is much easier when you get another dog.
Hope you get through tomorrow alright.

Thats a tough thing to read especially as you have been through so much together.... think of the good times...
Bit dusty in here right now...
You know when it's time, very tough though
Take him out to see the dawn tomorrow also. He sounds like he's had a good time, he's helped his master and you are with him at the end. IME that's pretty much all they want.
sorry to hear this.
post up some pics of happy days with your pooch.
Just walked in from making a cuppa to find my wife with tears in her eyes. She said "don't read the thread on STW, you'll know which one" 🙁
Really really feel for you, it sounds like you are doing the right thing for your dog though so take some comfort from that.
no dust around here, just tears.....
<hugs> to all of you.
C, S and Ted The Terrier.

Hayfever is playing up here too...... Hugs :'(
Just awful.. dreading the day this happens to my Lab as he has terrible hip dysplasia.
Thats it looks like my two best friends are about to get spoilt today.Really feel for u its such a hard decision to finally make but be positive and remember the lifetime memories.
So sorry for you mark. You are his best mate and he knows you would do anything for him. Even this.
You made me have a little cry by the way.

I know tomorrow will be a hard day, but you can take great comfort from doing the right thing for him, now as always. you can tell a lot about people from how they treat their pets...
