Goodbye my friend

[Equi]

Made the decision today to let go of my 14yo staffy. She had been given to xmas by vet and she really enjoyed herself eating and being merry, and since then has gone down hill. With the vets closing for New Years I thought it best to get it done now rather than risk a few more days of her being poorly.

Heartbroken.

I'm so sorry. Rip little dog.

I'm sorry to read this but can see exactly why you made the decision now. 14 is a good age, you have obviously given her excellent care during her lifetime.
Is there no emergency cover at your vets for the Bank Holiday?

 

[Clodagh]

Sorry to hear this. She was a lucky dog.

Be kind to yourself - sad times for you but doing the right thing isn't always fun.

There probably is but she was ready to go and keeping her longer would have just been for my own benefit and I would never do that.

It’s an horrible thing to go through , the price we pay for having them .
I have a twelve and fourteen year old so these threads chill my heart .
Look after yourself and remember the good times .

sorry equine-that is a grand age and she was a lucky girl to have you.

[TheOldTrout]

So sorry for your loss. Even though you know you're doing what's best for them, it still hurts.

 

[meesha]

So sorry, how hard a decision to make but undoubtedly the right one. RIP x
