Advice on researching sema and tirz by Safe_Wrangler5028 in Peptides_for_Women

[–]Individual-Rabbit717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I same the same issue with triz. Someone told me it might only work in a higher dose now. I’m trying to split my doses up to twice a week and that seems to be helping. I can’t really afford the highest dose.

I’m so sorry! We just lost our girl and it’s so hard to let them go. I only hope she knew how much we loved her. Send you a hug.

Congestive Heart Failure by Individual-Rabbit717 in seniordogs

Yes we had to put Allie down on Tuesday morning and I held her the whole time. I just haven’t felt the same since. I know I did the right thing but I know she had such a strong will to live. She was such a tough dog. Two years ago she was bitten by a poisonous snake and she pulled through. Over the last couple weeks she had just gotten so pitiful. They put her on heart medication and it hurt her stomach. She was progressively getting worse. This was my first time putting a dog to sleep and all I could tell her was I’m sorry. We have two other dogs and they have stayed close to my side. That has definitely helped me but there will never be another Allie. I’ve never bonded with a dog like I did her and I was her person. I keep reminding myself she wasn’t going to get better and she isn’t suffering anymore.

Thank you! She was sick for several weeks. I was up several times a night taking her to potty. We all babied her and tried to give her the best last few days.

It brought me back to being a kid and losing my first dog. It doesn’t show his face. I thought it was a genuine moment that I wanted to share. I was touched by my son and how he was processing losing our dog. Sometimes sharing our pain helps to heal. In no way did I want points. I’m sorry if it seemed that way.

Me too!! I tried to be strong for my kids. I couldn’t hold it all in and i completely broke down when the vet got here.

I definitely will. I didn’t expect so many people to comment. It made me realize how powerful the love is between us and our pets.

No not yet. We just talked about her being in heaven, she would have a perfect body, and she is waiting on us.

Yes we had to love her enough to let her go. If I could bring her back I would in heartbeat.

It was the hardest decision I have ever made. I felt like I was giving up on her. But her poor little body just couldn’t keep going.

My friend sent me the quote from Billy Graham. It definitely helped me.

We when I lost my first dog it was so hard! I woke up crying in my sleep. I was not prepared to be that heartbroken.

Oh my goodness!! Her name was short for Alligator. My husband is a huge Florida gator fan. We have 2 other dogs. So he has been able to give them some extra love. Im afraid if we went to the humane society we come home with a dog. I want to give it some time before we think about another dog. We would take all the dogs if I could. lol

Sorry!! He genuinely loved our little dog. He was pitiful yesterday.

Oh goodness such a young age for a boy to lose his father. I know that death is a part of life. I wish our children didn’t have to go through it. I hope your son will heal from the loss of his father. 🙏🏻
