This made me remember my dog I couldn’t say goodbye you all should be happy you got too she was already asleep from a surgery and they couldn’t remove the tumor they had to put her down but either she woke up and was put down which I thought was cruel because why make her wake up while she just got cut open just to be put down I already said my goodbye earlier that day

I had to put my dog down yesterday and I miss her so much. The house is so empty without her and her little bed is still here. I knew it was the right decision but it still hurts knowing you’ll never see them again…my heart is at peace knowing she didn’t suffer anymore. I love you so much, Nala. 08/05/21 ❤️❤️

I swear it hurts worse than a human sometimes. It was just a hard decision and talking it over with friends and family all weekend. My parents went with me, and I promise you through the tears and heart break, this should be the way every old and sick dog should have the chance to make their way to our furry babies heaven.

The appointment is tomorrow at 4:00, it’s 2:00am I can’t fucking sleep. I don’t want him to go but it would be unfair and selfish too make him suffer any longer he has arthritis so bad that he can’t walk anymore. He used to be so active and loved to swim in the pool and just hurts so bad too see him still have the desire but lack the ability to play anymore. And even though he lived 14 long years I can’t help but feel guilt for not making every moment perfect for him, I just hope I can keep it together long enough tomorrow for his final moments to be happy.

Thank you. Had to put my dog down today and it was the most difficult decision :( He was diagnosed with cancer. It was really aggressive and I could see him slowly getting weaker and weaker. Our last week with him was so special. We gave him all the love and spoils that he deserved and made sure he was as comfortable as possible at home. I struggled with the decision but remembering him at his happiest and not letting him suffer is helping me get through it. My family and I were right by his side to let him know that it's okay. He was relaxed during the process and didn't fight it. We miss him so much ❤️

Thank you for going through the process. Although my "last visit" was 15 years ago I still feel that weekend. I loved my veterinarian and the only criticism I have of my Vet. is that he did not explain the steps/stages before hand so I would know what to expect. Though I knew it was the right time for the procedure I always wanted to be the last thing my dog saw when he was alive. When his eyes wouldn't close after that last injection I couldn't take it. I hugged him and left the room and building not knowing if he was gone for sure. Going home to my now empty house. So knowing that their eyes may not close does provide me some comfort knowing that I did not walk out on my dog in his final moments.

We had to have our miniature schnauzer Frosty put down last november, she was almost 16 years old and we had her since she was a puppy. She was the first dog that was ever truly mine. I help when we brought her home, I held her when we said our finally goodbyes. Our vet did just as you and explained it very well. They took her out to put the catheter in and brought her back before giving her the sleeping medication. It was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do no one can prepare you for that. After the vet declared her gone, I held her a few minutes longer and then my husband took her and laid her on the table. I covered her with the towel they provided as I wanted to keep her blanket. I looked into to eyes one last time, I had to see that she was really gone and we left. She was cremated and we took her remains to a friends property that she loved running on and buried her in their pet memorial garden. Thank you for taking time to explain the process it is very helpful for anyone going through it for the first time.

The pain of putting an animal down is so much more amplified than a human sometimes because their little faces are so full of love and appreciation, being there for you when you need them or when you think you didn't. They are so innocent, and humans can be such jerks, that we wish all humans had the same animal authenticity.

Last time my pet’s jaw dropped open in a shocking way, which I did not expect or I would not have looked. I’m sorry if this disturbs anyone, but I do want others to know the reality of it. You have put my mind at ease, a great deal. My 19 year old cat is in end stage kidney failure, and I prefer to remember him alive. Since the first shot will make him unconscious, I don’t believe he will feel alone if I don’t stay to watch him pass, unless it’s at home. I only euthanize if they’re in prolonged agony.

Thank you for this explanation. I just went through this with my cat Micha and even though she went peacefully, I wanted to make sure the products used had not caused her any suffering or discomfort. Now knowing that the tranquilizer used is propofol, I'm reassured.That doesn't take away the pain of losing her or the deep sorrow I feel right now but at least, I know she really went peacefully, with me petting her. She had the loudest purring I've ever heard in a cat and was so special. My girl was almost 14 and and she died of lymphoma 😢 I miss you Micha but I won't ever forget you. Love you ❤

Putting my dog down in a week... He's 13 1/2. Crazy how much this hurts. Been with us for almost 13 years. He was a rescue pup. Best on the spot decision I made. He started our family with my wife and I. He was there right from the start of our fresh relationship to marriage, watching my kids grow up, getting two other dogs. Watching our family grow, while he got older. I've lost relatives, friends, but this hurt is like no other. I know the guilt will set in. What was more important than taking the time to give a belly rub? Why didn't I stop what I was doing to get on the floor more often? This guilt, will go away, I know.... Just remember Dogs live in the moment. They don't hold grudges. It's that unconditional love they show you, that is why this hurts so much. His last week will be all about him and how we can spoil him. We will show him how much we love him, and how much he meant to everyone of us. I will thank him for all the happiness he has brought into our lives. I will make sure I am there by his side, to be his comfort his security as he was ours. He will always be in my heart and by my side, watching me grow old, until I see him again. Love you Parker. Love you ol' Man.

My senior dog i adopted back in September 2010 has congestive heart failure, he also has seizures but without the shaking. Its so hard watching him struggle to get around but he also wags his tail trying to reassure me he's ok, when I know he's not. He gets so excited everytime he sees a box come in from the mail because he assumes its always for him from Barkbox. He loves his toys. I just wish he'd go peacefully on his own, in his sleep or isn't anxious. His body is giving out but his mind is still holding on. I for sure thought he was going to pass away this morning but he didn't. He purked up after 10 mins and seen I had beef jerky. After that he went in my room to sleep beside me while I worked. The euthanasia process doesn't sound so bad at all. I've had the first drug they use to put me to sleep for a procedure. I didn't know a thing but its knowing that I made the decision to end my dogs life that bothers me. I know he will die on his own regardless but there's times he just seems so happy and not ready to go. I've had to put down a cat and a dog in the past. I wasn't in the room when they passed but now I know its the best thing for the pet to do to comfort them. I just don't know if I'm strong enough to do it. I hate this so much. Its awful.

I just had to put my 15 years 9month (Almost 16 years old) dog down last night because she developed a mass in her chest which was more than likely cancer (we couldn’t figure it out because she was too weak and she can barely survive going under for a teeth cleaning) and it was so freaking hard. I’m only 22 and I got her when I was 5 turning 6 so over half of my life and it was heart breaking. I keep telling myself she’s not in pain anymore and the way you described it to me gives me a little comfort in knowing that she thinks she just going to sleep for her teeth to get cleaned like a regular visit. I’ve cried so many days leading up to it but once I heard her crying I knew it was time and I was being selfish. I treat my dogs like they are my family because they are but I don’t want my family suffering. Grief is hard but somehow I’m finding comfort in the comment section with strangers. Time heals all 💚

Leave on the table on a cozy blanket and caress their body that way. Because if you hold them you will feel them stiffen up the second their heart stops because it's like a little heart attack. And believe me you do not want to experience that. I cried everytime I remembered that part of his euthanasia for a couple of years, it was awful.

The kitten then falls asleep straight away no pain, happens so fast too, they are then declared dead as soon as 20 seconds later.

Usually it does make them act a little drunk but I've never interpreted it as fear before.

Lost my family cat a week ago now. He was diagnosed with a thyroid tumor when he was ten, put down just before his 14th birthday. He had a vomiting episode about a week before but seemed to bounce back until the night before when he just spiralled. My mum messaged me in the morning and came to pick me up so I could say goodbye. It's been a lot harder to process than I expected, he was a huge part of my life growing up and I would make sure, once I was old enough to move out, to still visit and give him a fussing. The vets were fantastic, I don't know how you could do it as often as you must, and remain composed. Thank you, all in your profession, for doing what you do with such grace and compassion.

I always said I would never euthanize my dog. I found myself having to make the tough decision because she couldn’t eat or drink and starving due to oral cancer. I didn’t expect the emotional pain I felt for several months after letting her go. I kept asking the universe if it was the right decision. The guilt weighed so heavily on me. Then when it came to her ashes I wanted to keep it at first, then read that it was trapped energy. So I took her ashes and drove to her favorite park where she used to love running around. I kept thinking to myself if it was the right thing to do so she can be free. As I drove up close to the park the song, Stairway to Heaven came on the radio. I knew it was the universe speaking to me. Then after spreading her ashes I got in the car and drove away on the same park road when Dust in the Wind started playing on the radio. I was shocked but thanked the universe and I knew I did the right thing. RIP Lili. Thank you for the 18 years you stayed with me 💗 🐕 😇

Me and my wife had to put our baby down today. He was only two, had beautiful teal blue eyes, and long black and gray fur and wasn't doing so well. I knew last night when I set him down and he couldn't keep himself standing anymore that it was his time... I was so scared and uncomfortable with the thought. I have always had a weird stance on euthinasia. I never thought it should be up to me to make that call, who the hell am I to make the call to end his life? But I knew that it had to be done. I wanted to scream and shout, and pull the fucking IV out as soon as the vet started... "He was only two... maybe he could still be alright" I thought... as his little body went limp, I was guilt-ridden and overcome with saddness. I loved that little furball. I'm gonna miss his little head-butts, when he would sit underneath my desk while I gamed. I just wish I could have done more. I just wish that he didn't have to go so young. I miss him, and it's only been 6 hours. I want him to come home, but I know he never will. But I do also know that he is painfree and no longer suffering. I just fucking hate losing him so much... Fuck this year. I love you, little buddy, and I'm sorry. Rest in peace. Ollie 9/22/21 5:45pm

Thank you for your video. I would like to ask you a question. I had a vet come to my house to potentially euthanize my dog. She did inject the dog twice. The first time was in the dogs back or side and she said it was to relax my dog, but it actually paralyzed my dog, and my dog screamed and jumped off the couch And hid, and then she was frozen literally she could not move her body and I had to carry her out of the cage and she just kept looking at me because her body couldn’t move. It was stiff and I wanna know what that was because that didn’t seem normal to me, if the dog was supposed to be relaxed, get hurt so bad or stung by this needle the first time and then after she couldn’t move then the doctor shaved her arm and put the IV in her vein. It was very horrible. She tried three times and then had to go to the other arm and it was just a bad experience and I wanted my dog to have a peaceful passing. Can you possibly tell me what she could’ve given my dog that made her, freeze up like paralyzed please thank you. My name is Kellie.

@@cashmeinparadise So sorry that you are experiencing this also. Just know that doing this is such a selfless act, it has to be what is best for them. One of my mistakes was that I knew it was time to put her down, and I had others telling me to wait, she doesn't appear that bad. But they didn't know her as well as I did. That caused me to wait about 4-6 weeks too long. I am still upset with myself for making her suffer with that extra wait time. I lost her 10-15-2021 at 11:10am. I'll say a prayer for you and your sweet girl, thank you for loving her.

Had to put my dog down yesterday morning. Came home from exams and didn’t expect him to have to go so soon. I miss him so much 😭. I saw him grow up while he saw me and my brother grow up as children

I'm not looking forward to this but this did help. I know now I can be there for him until the second injection, then I must turn away for myself. Not that I love him any less because I'm writing this morning my good friend before I finally let him go. I'm so glad I could see him this week. I know he'd love my child if he lived long enough to see her.

The hardest thing we have to do is to let go. We had to put our Isabelle down a few days ago after being told she was in extreme pain and bleeding out. We had her over 12 years as a rescue and my house is empty without her. I miss her fluffy cuddles and kisses 😢

I had to put my tiny sweet poodle down last week. She was almost 13 and had developed heart failure, one of the hardest but strongest thing I ever did. She was my whole heart. I pray for strength, love and encouragement for everyone who is grieving right now
