on friday the 15th of may i woke up which was the day after my birthday, to find my darling german sheperd Tyson poorly, in march this yr he had a tumour removed along with his spleen, he pulled through from this until that horrible day(15th may)i took him straight to the vet who told me his time had come, omg i died inside to hear those words, i stood with him while there put him to rest, the worse day of my life. I feel so guilty of doing this, and hate my self also. i know in my heart that he his no longer suffering but this pain i have in my heart is ripping me apart.I had him for lots of happy years, he was so gentle but he did protect all the family,i keep seeing his face of when he last closed his eyes, but i,ll also never forget this little sigh of relieve, has tho he was saying goodbye.i never will get over this. xxx

RE: i hate my self right now..
Iknow your pain i myself had to have my little jack russell Tara put to rest on 1st july 2009.The different feelings you go through are horrendous.But what we must remember is we did it for them to take away all the pain.You should rest easy knowing you did all you could and more.x
RE: i hate my self right now..
I know exactly how you feel...every day I question
did I do the right thing with Max.....I torture myself with it....
please It is the right thing to do but it has to be one of the most hardest things ever..
I wish you all the best...

RE: i hate my self right now..
Hi, I have read all of the above and totallyagree. I had a Great Danefor 11 years and watched him pass away infront of me that was 20 years ago, and it still brings a tear to my eye,but its worth it for all the happy memories i have of him. Then two weeks ago one of my cats passed away I knew it was old age after all he was 16 years old,but he had been doddery for a couple of weeks drinking pints and pints of water but he was still eating and going in his lit tray,then one morning he was there to greet me as normal ate his food and wobbled off down the path,I went shopping and returned 2 hours later,and he was no where to be found dispite hours and hours of searching for him I did not find him,its so painful. So losing a pet is really really hard what ever way they go i think,but remember this its us Humans who are sad now for they are at peace.

Hi Diane.
I lost my pet GSD Bruno last Wednesday 15th July, he was so affectionate, unfortunately I had to have him euthatised as he couldn't walk on his back legs. Although like you I was heartbroken I take comfort from the fact that I stayed with him while the vet laid him to rest. I know I did the right thing by him although it doesn't make the pain any less to bear.
I hope you will find comfort Diane. Think of all the happy times you had with Tyson.
RE: i hate my self right now..
i too had put my beloved max to sleep because of ill health he was 11 you did the right thing for tyson he is happy now and free from pain if you had kept him in pain then you should have felt guilty ,i myself have tried to have another dog but i have had to rehome him because max was the best and i will never forget him x
RE: i hate my self right now..
This was the kindest act you could perform owing to the ill nature of Tyson. This phase will past and you will know only the good times.
Much Love,
Janette.
Create an ever lasting memorial for your loved ones.
