I Know I'm A B!tch.. But Damn!

My moms dog fell the other day and has been slow to get up for a few weeks now. He doesn't seem to be in pain, but Akitas are known for high pain tolerance/hiding pain.

I told my mom about the fall so she was aware and could keep an eye on him.

She said she knew and was trying not to be in denial about how he's feeling so she can make an informed decision about what is best for him, even if it means putting him to sleep.

But then she made a comment about how it was difficult for her, even though it would be a good thing for me.

WTF? Granted, I don't care for the dog.. but I don't want someones very loved pet to die. Geez.

I know she's super stressed and depressed and all that crap. But really? I wouldn't want her dog to die.

It's a dog! Even I'm not that bad.

  • Maybe she didn't understand what she was exactly saying because she is so upset.  I wouldn't take it to heart.

    I think that's mostly it.

    Even the thought of putting him to sleep right now is even worse than normal because she just had to put the other one down less than a month ago.. 

    And this one is really her favorite boy, been there through everything kind of dog.

    It will hit her hard.

  • I can't imagine how you guys must feel.  ((hugs))
  • I am sure she knows you wouldn't wish ill-will on her pet, she is probably just having a hard time.    I am sorry to hear her surviving dog is having problems, I hope she doesn't have to lose him on top of everything else she's dealing with.

  • I'm sure it came out worse than intended. She knows you don't want her dog dead. I feel so bad that her dog isn't doing well on top of everything else. That's a really sad situation.
