I too am crying as i type this! I'm gonna have to put my Bullmastiff Brutus to sleep in a few days from cancer as well mast cell tumors. He is my everything!!! He is only 5 1/2 years old and does not deserve this. He is a once in a lifetime dog. He has a way of making everyone feel so incredibly loved and needed. I know i will never get over this! Everytime i here the song by Keith Urban "With Out You" I brake down instantly and can't stop crying. I will love you forever Brut!!!
I'm so sorry. But you know you are doing the best thing for him, so he doesn't have to suffer. I know it's the hardest thing to do, but I hope you can be with him when it happens. All of my animals through my life that've had to be put down for whatever reason except 1, I was with. That 1 I wasn't with is the cat that I asked this question about. She had cancer, and the tumors on her skin had burst and she was bleeding and in pain. I was dealing with a serious illness at the time and had to have my mom take her. I think that's part of the extra pain I feel, I feel guilty for not being with her.
But I think they're more comfortable when their people are with them...It is like losing a family member. Scratch that, it is losing a family member. But don't ever let that pain keep you from loving another animal. Brutus would want you to love another dog the way you've loved him.
Is it normal to cry a long time after losing a pet?
