Today we had to make the decision to put our lovely Fox terrier Flint to sleep after nearly 14 years . Such a hard decision but the right one .

Such a hard thing to do but as you rightly say the right thing…been there so I know how you feel. But you did good…you can’t go weak and let them suffer can you. My condolences, they get right under your skin as you know.

Sad times, I feel for you.

Thank you John . You cant and that is the one thing we keep telling ourselves .He had a good life and was spoilt . We always took him away with us and I think the longest we ever left him on his own was for 5 hrs . Going to miss him so much .

It heart breaking. You gave him the best life you could. He had happy times and you have happy memories.

Definitely As you are local I will just say that we took him straight from Leonards Vets in Whitchurch to Coton Meadows https://shropshirepetcrematorium.co.uk/ .

The vets and Coton Meadows were both excellent .

Awful to have to do, but you will have given them the best life.

My sincere condolences, the loss of a beloved dog is always hard on you. I am sure he had a great life, 14 years was a good innings!

My condolences and such a heartbreaking time. He looks a lovely little fella.

Had my Cairn for 16 years and passed away in 1992, still lots of fond memories to hold onto.



Tim.

So sorry, condolences to you.

I’ve been there myself, I can understand your present state of grief. Time is a great healer.

It’s like losing a family member. Years of unconditional love and loyalty. They are an example to the human race. Really feel for you..

So difficult, horrible, horrible decision to make. That is just the worst.

I always say, I rate dogs higher than humans when it comes to loyalty and trust.

All the best

As John said above I’ve been there…. it was about 20 years ago but I remember it like it was yesterday.

It is a very, very tough thing to do, but the fact that you were brave enough to do it shows how much you cared and loved him. The bottom line is you just know when the time is right to let them go, but remember the good times and fun you had, he will never leave your heart .
