Comment on Life after euthanasia for bereaved pet carers by Barb.
I put my two GSD siblings down yesterday. They were 13 years old and both were struggling. My boy lost feeling in his back and was unable to walk, quit eating and drinking. My girl had been a cancer survivor twice but was panting excessively over the last few months and struggling to walk. They had never been separated since birth and did not do well if one was at an appointment or on a walk without the other. This has been rather most difficult and painful thing I’ve been through in years. They were my everything, my purpose. It has only been a day but the hole left in my heart hurts so bad. You don’t mention depression. Yes I’m grieving but when your pet(s) are nearly your everything, it’s like losing a mate.
