Re: Very sad
Not only that, but I can guarantee you that he knows that his current state is causing you anguish, which will cause him anguish. If you choose to ease his suffering, it sounds like you would be doing him a kindness - as well as honoring the love you share and the commitment you made to be "his human".
In the short run, it might hurt you more because your emotions are more complex than his. Yeah, I know. It's really not fun. But damn, it's a truly beautiful thing when you think about it.
Big hugs for the both of yuz!
Keit said:Dogs are wonderful creatures, also because of their great ability to be totally devoted to their human guardians. So devoted and self-sacrificing they are, they may not leave because they can see how sad it will make us feel. And so it is our responsibility to recognize their pain and struggle, and then let them go and help them become free of suffering.
