Well Deb and I knew this day was coming for the past few months. I think we decided that we are gonna put our dog "Pooh Bear" down before the Dismeet June 18th.So I guess now we need to figure out what we should feed her for her last meal. I'm thinking Filet Mignon, any suggestions?
I am so sorry to hear that. It isn't an easy decision to make but it is the kindest act of love we can do for our furry family members once their quality of life is gone. If Filet Mignon is her favorite then yes. Whatever her favorite yummy is, bring some with you to the vet or have it on hand if your vet comes to you so she can have one last bite. Bring her favorite toy, make sure she is surrounded by the family she loves when it is time to say goodbye. Don't let her see you cry. There will be plenty of time for tears later. She'll sense your emotions so hide your sorrow and focus on the 17 years of the unconditional love she gave her family. Hold her and tell her you love her just as the pink stuff is about to go in because she will be gone before the syringe is out. I've learned that with time the tears that come with the memories fade and are replaced by smiles somewhere along the way.
