It's barely 5 months ago I had to put my first dog to sleep and today we were forced to do the same thing to my second dog Icon_sad The first one was suffering from diabetes and just couldn't move on anymore, the second had cancer and this huge tumor was growing inside and outside his lower body. It couldn't walk properly anymore, didn't show any signs of happiness anymore and was just laying still.

So, while I was upstairs unawares, my sister came to pick him up and bring him to the vet. She did it because she knew how sad I was after I lost my first dog and didn't want me to go through the same thing again, but still I would have liked it if I had been able to say goodbye. So, shortly before 5 PM local time my second dog was put to sleep and I still feel awful. It's not that I raised it from since it was a puppy, but it had been with us for several years and I grew so attached to him. So yeah, the sadness is just as bad as it was with my first dog.

Then a few hours after Stephanie showed up on AIM and she actually made me feel better. It's funny to see we had so many fights (as some of you know) but since a month or two we're actually friends. She's there when I feel bad and vice versa. Quite an accomplishment because we used to be so far apart. Linz was also there for me, and so were Brad and Alex. Without them I probably would have felt sadder right now, so thank you guys for being there for me. It may sound weird but I really feel like I've lost two of my kids over a short period of time. But support from my friends made me feel I wasn't facing this alone, so I figured I'd leave this thread here.

I'm actually thinking of getting myself a new dog in a few weeks. Maybe a Jack Russell like Jody has. I only hope it won't be as hyper and cheeky as Jody's dog, because man, that guy raises hell at times in the Saunders household! Well, not sure what it will be yet. But yeah, I'm definitely getting myself another dog because it's so empty inside the house now. Well, just wanted to blow off some steam, so I guess I'll leave you guys to it now...
Im sorry your going through this, I know what it's like to lose a pet, it makes me think of when I lost my bird Kimmi, I loved her so much, it still bothers me sometimes because she was just such a sweetheart and I could tell she loved me as much as I loved her. In fact, she wasnt my bird at first, she was mom's but for some reason she just loved me, and I just kinda took her over, she became my baby, like my own child Icon_sad

So yeah, I know how you feel, and if you need anyone to talk to, you know Im here, love you bro

It's indeed sad to lose a pet. I'd like to get another dog in a few weeks/months, not sure what kind of dog though.

Thanks for all the replies so far btw, means a lot Icon_biggrin
