Sick Dog Update

We put our 10 year old Boxer, Madison, down this morning. It's been a heartbreaking day. I don't know what is harder, having Madison gone or seeing how heartbroken DH is. He NEVER cries. Ever. He's been crying on and off all day and it kills me. :( Obviously I expected and understand.

The vet we found to do this was SO great. She was very professional and caring and compassionate. Her name is Dr. Rebecca McComas - minnesotapets.net. She comes and does it in your home. She was great. DH called her this morning at 9:30 and she was here at noon.

Thanks for your support with this ladies. I appreciate it.  

Married: October 11, 2008

Re: Sick Dog Update

  • I'm so sorry!!!  What a sad day. 

  • I'm so sorry.  Sending thoughts of comfort and peace to you and your husband.

    Thanks for the vet rec... what a great idea to be able share those last moments with your pet in their own home...

    Again, my thoughts are with you...

  • Oh, I am so sorry... I can't imagine what it would feel like to lose my two sweet boxers... and we put my parent's lab to sleep last year, and when I think of her the pain is still fresh.

    SO glad you could put her to sleep in your own home - what a peaceful transition for her that must have been. I am sending your family many good thoughts to help you get through this.

  • I'm so sorry for your loss.
  • I am so sorry.  :-(

    She is at peace now and not in pain.  I know that doesn't so much to ease your pain right now but it is true!  It's such a sad time.  Be sad.  Cry.  Remember the good times with Madison...  time will heal your hearts.

    Hugs.

  • I'm so sorry.  It's never easy, even when you know it's the best choice for your pet. 

    Thanks for the recommendation for the vet.  What a fantastic service.
