We had to have our much loved dog put to sleep on Thursday, he was old and had heart disease, but he has left a huge space in our lives.

So sad - my family always brought a new one into the household when the current ones were getting older, it seemed to re-invigorate the old one; give them a chance to show who was boss and to break the youngster into the ways of the household and then, when the time came, there was always a pet as part of the family to help get over the sadness.

I am so sorry for you Nessa

Always sad when a pet,especially a dog,dies. We always had a dog in our house when growing up and cats although i'm not too keen on them.
That's the trouble with loving a pet,they die.

Very sorry to read about your pet , it must be a very sad time for you

I'm sorry to hear about your dog, but it sounds like you did the right thing.

Im sorry to read that Nessa.
Pets become part of the family and are missed just as much.
At least you know now, that he wont be in pain.

That's the tough thing about having pets... with their lives being so much shorter than ours, we suffer this sadness over and over again. I've often wondered whether having them is worth the pain of losing them, but it is. For the loving!
