My thoughts are with you Nukes.

Stay positive Nukes

Unfortunately they discovered during his operation the the cancer had spread so we had to make the agonising decision not to let him wake up.
This has been one of the hardest times of my life. Many will say it's only a dog, but he was our dog who we all loved. We are broken at the moment the house is silent. I hate this as this was his house his garden. Heartbroken

Really feel for you mate

Dogs are part of the family

Many will say it's only a dog

the only people who would say that are people who have never had a pet.



thoughts are with you and your family Nukes.

Sincere commiserations to you and your family.

Sorry to hear of your sad news Steve.

My thoughts are with you Nukes . The decision made was the kindest thing you could have done for the ol fella. Time will heal it mate, nothing much else will.

Just spoke to the vet it looked like a non malignant mass. Apparently it was so big it filled most of his abdomen. This mass also had spread and infected his lymph nodes. So even if they had removed this mass he would not of survived long.
With this mass it can go unnoticed but something can happen that would cause it to bleed and that happened yesterday it was a ticking time bomb and he went downhill fast.
Our house is empty and quiet without that rascal running about,we feel empty and every part of our lives will change for ever. When I used to come home off nights I took him for a walk and then he cuddled up in bed with me. I feel so lost.

As I said in my other post mate , I went through this 2 weeks ago and it's very strange not having your best mate around . But you did right by that dog , a selfish person would've kept going with him. Like the vet said to me "keep going with him" but the last thing you want to see is your dog suffering.

We put our own feelings to one side and look after the dogs feelings, you made the right choice. The first few days for me was awful but time is a great healer . Just remember the good times you had nukes

Thank you chief

very sorry to hear your news Nukes, I know it will be hard for a long time and the only ease you will get will be remembering the good times but then in a weird cruel way thinking about the good times will make you sad again.

all the best mate, really feel for you.
Jules

I went through exactly the same a few years ago.

Broke my heart and still get upset now HOWEVER i'm always glad we made the decision so the poor mite wasn't suffering anymore.

What you've done was the hardest decision but the kindest.

Remember the good times and the memories, they'll always be with you.

Well said NJ73. Losing Bartley on 15th November was horrible for the family and me. You look back at the great memories and never forget what a loyal friend they are.

I still look at his photos and think of the good times.

I will Paul I will. And I know I made the right decision it just hurt so much. Gareth I remember your situation and thinking I dread the day when it happens to me. Now Friday the 13th it did. A grown Man should not break down in tears but fook it this one has several times today and have tears welling now.

So Sorry to hear Nukes, I love dogs beyond and they are a mans best friend. Sorry my friend.
You will always have some amazing memories and you have lost a member of your family RIP.

Thank you Annis just can't get round the fact he was bounding around yesterday and a routine check up turned into a nightmare

I don't cry much mate but when Bartley went I cried like a baby. The mrs and I were in bits at the vets. It carried on for a fair few days but it got easier.

We made the difficult decision at Christmas to get another. I was reluctant but we ended up getting a shihtzu/ bearded collie cross who is a lovely dog but not Bartley. A couple of weeks later we got his sister as she was unwanted and had been treated badly.

Sorry to hear about your loss Nukes. Happened to us a week before Christmas and as many have said, the're part of your family and it hits all of you. Remember what a fantastic life he had and all the good times you were all blessed with having together. It will get better mate.

Heartfelt condolences m8.I am looking at my dogs now and thinking how bad you must be feeling.
