Just put my beautiful 11 almost 12 year old black german shepherd Jonas to sleep. I am so sad and the grief is overwhelming even though I knew this day was coming. He was my best friend (besides hubby), my protector and just a wonderful dog. Wonderful memories, but just wish I could have had more time with him. I will miss him sooooooo much. My other dog Haley who is a german shepherd mix was raised by Jonas and I'm not sure how she will react to him being gone. He was put to sleep on the floor in the family room, his favorite place. Haley sniffed him before they took him away and with my tears I think she knew what was going on. Hope she will be ok without him. Thanks for listening to my rambling, but this is such a caring website, it comforts me.

So very sorry for your loss. 11+ years is truly a blessing to have. I hope Haley adjusts well, giving her some extra love right now will probably help both of you. This is a very comforting site, there are many who've been there and many like me headed to the same situation much sooner than we'd like. Wish you comfort and peace.

I joined this forum today. On this past Friday, I put my faithful and loving male shepherd down. I rescued him 11 yrs ago and had 11 wonderful years with him. My grief is terrible. I can feel your pain and to be honest I don't know what to do. I guess time will help. I have a female shepherd who also raised, she is lost without him.
I have had 6 other shepards and the sadness is worse than any of the others. I guess its because I rescued this dog the day my spouse left and he picked me. He was at a shelter, laying there all depressed and when they opened the cage, out he came and licked me and my son who was 14 at the time. That decided it, home he went. He had been beaten and mistreated yet he was one of the best and lovable dogs I ever had. I plan concentrate on my dog that is left, maybe you can comfort Haley and find peace with her. I am thinking of rescuing another but everyone is saying its too soon. I really dont' know. I hope your pain eases and your memories of him make you smile. |
