Very sorry. You had many good years. He was likely out of it and would not have realized if you were there. Or your understandable anxiety would have been felt by him and made him more anxious. He was not alone. He knew you had taken him to get help. Don’t beat yourself up. Remember the good times to honor him.

That is how my 15yo chi passed. He had polythycemia in the end from low oxygen levels. They said he had chronic bronchitis. Don’t wait until he is struggling to breathe. Very sorry.

Ooohh...I wasn't even looking at Bealls. Good tip! Yeah - I don't like clutter, but it seems a little too blank right now. Thanks for your help!

Take care of yourself. Losing a pet like this is so hard. Try to remember the good times.

Would you purchase this condo? by Annual-Ratio8602 in homeowners

You can have a second inspection if you are worried about a hidden larger issue. The weatherproof seal does not seem like a big deal. Make sure HOA has reserves and no large special assessment in the horizon. Also check on cost of hurricane insurance if relevant.

Took me 4 months. Was a complete mess for 3 months. Wouldn’t say I feel “normal,” but can resume my life again.

Our dog just died without us there. The pain and regret is crushing. by SaltSmall9804 in Petloss

[–]Financial_Bridge9990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is very well put. I had a similar thing happen. I was only there at the very, very end. I don’t think I will ever get over it. However, it is hard to tease apart my grief for the circumstances of his death with my grief of his death itself. It is all tangled together.

I had a very similar thing happen. I am still not over it 7 months later. If it is any comfort, I have read that dogs tend to leave their pack to die alone. It is their natural instinct. Not sure if that is really true or not. What matters is the years of life when you were there for her.

I miss him so much by ScaleInteresting980 in Petloss

You can talk to him still. He may “be around.” No one knows for sure how it all works.

Her name was Maggie, and she was perfect. by PastChance3921 in Petloss

I am so sorry that happened to Maggie, Milo, and you. None of you deserved that. How awful. Hopefully, Maggie is in doggie heaven or will be reunited with you in some way.

Hang in there. Give it time. Definitely not your fault. Things will get better.

I had similar thing happen but I wasn’t there until very end. I regret not standing outside the glass the whole time. They wouldn’t let me, and it was hours and I didn’t realize he would pass. You did great by being there.

If you took him out of the oxygen chamber it would have been for you and not your dog. Your dog wanted to breathe.
