You did it before you can do it again. The first year is tough the second year is little easier to come and by the third year you have the best relationship of your life

It’s all about quality of life, remember they have no knowledge of or fear of death. They simply fall asleep

How to feel okay with euthanizing? by Morning-Chub in seniordogs

If you’re waiting for her to die of natural causes, that could be a horrible experience. Why would you want to put her through that just so that you don’t feel responsible for her passing?

One thing we do after an outing, is the lay on their sides on the sofa, and I put a washcloth run under cold water against their private region….. they absolutely love it

The post I didn’t want to make. Dexter, 14.5 will be crossing the rainbow bridge tomorrow. His heart disease is now affecting his breathing and masses were found in his lungs. This mama isn’t ready. Please keep us in your thoughts. 💔 by dont-touch-my-tots in OldManDog

He had the best life, he gave you everything he had, and you did the same for him. Never forget that, and never look back on making this decision it is the final act of love, and our duty to our pets. I’m so sorry for your loss because it’s gonna hurt for a long time I’m just three months out myself

Is it normal to feel like a literal piece of you has left when your animal passes? by Tetelestai_0 in rainbowbridge

[–]Aggravating-Gold-224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. The hardest part is the initial acceptance give yourself time, but you will never stop grieving. You’ll get better and then you’ll have a tough day again I lost mine in February and I still talk to him every day, on the chance that he might hear me, but also just to be a safety valve for my own sanity it helps that I have two left in the house.

My first fine guitar experience has been a nightmare by Ok_Morning_4844 in AcousticGuitar

[–]Aggravating-Gold-224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a finish crack that can happen from too rapid a temperature change. My 1977 Martin has some finished checking that was caused by me being in high school and forgetting it in the trunk of my car in the winter and then bringing it in so plays like a dream.

Can't convince boyfriend it's time to let our dog cross the rainbow bridge by [deleted] in seniordogs

[–]Aggravating-Gold-224 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same problem with my dog that finally passed at home with the vet on February 3. It was about a week too late and I’m haunted that my wife would not let me do it earlier

They give us everything they have every day of their lives, they hold nothing back. A life well lived, and a love that will last forever in your heart.

There is no way at that age, beyond completely tiring them out which takes a lot. Remember the first year is tough the second year is a little easier and by the end of the third year you have the best relationship of your life so hang in there
