It was hell yesterday
Yesterday I had to put my best friend of 14 yrs to sleep. He was old and had a condition that made him retain water. At the end he was so swollen and full of water that his weight had doubled.
I made him a bed in the back of the H3, loaded him up as he could barely get around and certianly couldnt jump into the Hummer any more and slowly drove to the hospital.
I went in and explained to them that he couldnt move much and it was too hard on him to carry him in so they came out to the parking lot.
I jumped in the back and put his head on my shoulder as they put the neddle in his arm and within 3 secs he collapsed all of his weight on me as I hugged him for about 5 mins till I was sure he was gone.
We took him out to my parents property and dug him a nice spot under a huge tree with the front end loader and put him to rest.
I will miss him,
R.I.P. Bud

Re: It was hell yesterday
Oh B, I am so sorry.
I wish there was something I could type that would make you feel better. I know I can't and won't try. The place on your parents property sounds really nice and it's good to know he is there.
Hang in there, friend. I will be thinking of you.

I know what you're going through. I had to do the same thing in September. I cried like a baby. Hang in there.

Sorry to hear that. I had to put my Golden down a few years ago because of cancer.
He was a great hiking dog. We could take kids and he'd patrol the whole line making sure no one was missing.
Still miss him.

Sorry to hear that!
I hope he a good long life. Although painful, I bet he was happy to have you there at the final moment. Comfort.

Re: It was hell yesterday
Its getting better but its still hard as I keep wanting to call his name to take him out. I keep thinking I need to get 2 milk bones where as I only need 1 now. He loved them.
Its better but not the same.
Here is Tara she is 7 and doing great.
