Just thought I would let everyone know that I have to have my dog euthanized this coming wednesday. He's been snapping at people, & my husband & I.

So sorry to hear this. I had to have a dog put asleep not so long ago, and I cried for days. God bless.

So very sorry to hear this. I know how hard it is. 84U

Oh Goodness, not very good to have to have that done to your dog, hope that you will be ok

I'm so sorry! I know how hard that can be to make that decision. My prayers are with you!

Oh kharriman, I feel so very sad for you, my heart goes out to both of you, it's a very traumatic thing to have to do. Love and hugs sweetie, and I'll be thinking of you.

So sorry to hear this, they are like part of the family. I have a poodle that is 15 years old, I don't know what I will do when something happens to him.

I am so sorry! My "Girls" are family and I am being faced with having to have one of my put down soon. She will soon be 14(I hope) but she has cancer for 3+ years. It has just recently started taking its toll on her. She has lost alot of weight and hair and looks sad most of the time. She does have some very good days. Right now, she does not seem to be in pain but she has no energy most of the time. She has always been my gentle loving soul. There has never been a mean bone in her body. I promised her when her Uncle "Gizzy" had to be put down that I would never let her suffer like he did. He was 16yrs,1month and 4 days old when I had him put down. He had a horrible week-end before I could get a Vet on Monday. I have had Bebe since the day she was born and I will not let her live in bad pain. I tried to have her operated on when they found it but was told that she was too old. I even took her to a 2nd Vet and was told the same thing. My prayers go out to you. I know you are hurting right now but you did the right thing. I am an animal person and have done rescue for a good many years. Out ofl those years, I only had to have 1 put down because of horrible temperment. I kept him several months and could do nothing with him. I got him as a 6 month old Chow that no one could do anything with. I was known as the one that could tame/change any dog. Not that one. He attacked me and my new, tiny 6 week old Pekingese(Gizzy) and I was glad there was a limb laying in the yard. He went straight back to the Vet that called me to come get him to start with! My other little girl, Patty is only 4 and a white tornado! She is adopted off Petfinders.com She will bite while playing or when she is giving sugar but they are tiny play bites. She gets excited and nibbles. It is done in fun and she does not hurt. She is not aggressive or mean. She is a STINKER! She does not have that gentle, quiet soul that Bebe has, just the opposite! There is never a dull moment at this house and I am the only person that lives here! My advice is to go get another baby. It will help. Linda

I don't think I want another dog. My husband didn't even want me to have a dog. He got bit when he was little himself. *4U

I am so sorry for you and your family, have courage and know you are doing the right thing. God created both man and beast, He has charged us with stewardship over all things here on earth. When there is risk to man's well being then action must be taken for we are God's temple.
You have been there to care for your dog's every need, this part is the hardest. I mourn when I lose one of my "kids", as that is what one does when we love. My thoughts and prayers go out to you for peace in this difficult time.
Blessings.

Thanks Yoriko. I am having a hard time with it too. I have someone going with me just in case I am really upset & can't drive. *4U

sorry to hear, that's a difficult decission, but you cann't take a risk. but it will be hard.hugs for you and family.

Oh my Karen, that is so sad.

I know you've probably already had him checked by a vet for problems inside his brain or pain caused by a hidden injury or even arthritis.

>Animals can't speak, so snapping is sometimes the only way they can let you know something is wrong with them.
There is nothing more difficult than having to choose to have a family pet euthanised so my heart goes out to you.
Hugs n roses, Meganne

I know it is the best thing to do. He's getting spoiled this week. We just can't afford to keep him. We don't have any insurance on the house & we can't afford to gamble on this either. Thanks for the puppy angel. He's sweet. *4U

sorry to hear that.........it is hard to do what yo are doing.........but for the best. I had to put mine down because she was to old and that was very hard to do so I know what you are going thru. Hugs

Karen, I am so sorry.

My thoughts are with you. It is like loosing a family member. I had to give mine away, as I moved into an apartment, took me a long time to get over it. One reason why I won't have another pet.
Just breaks your heart. Enjoy the last few days you will have with him, I am sure you have lots of good memories of his years with you
Warm Hugs
