Re: Is this a good idea??? At the end he was very happy with a mouthful of roast beef and a tummy full of sausages chicken and biscuits including rich teas which were his favourite. I can't believe he's gone, death is so final and I can't believe I made it happen. We are paying for him to be cremated and then getting a scatter box and going to scatter him somewhere, either north sands at salcombe where he ran and played on the beach or the new forest where we walked with him. Either way it means whenever we go on holiday he will be with us. My heart is broken. I love him like I love murphy. I loved the musty old smell of the fur on his head, I lived how he tried to play despite being in pain and I loved how he snuggled up with me on the sofa. I miss him
Re: Is this a good idea??? The awful thing about life is that it comes to an end. You gave him a peaceful, happy exit, and he knew he was loved. Our pets just don't live long enough, and that's the sad truth of it all. Crying with you, it's so hard but day by day it will get better. You will never forget him, and your memories will in time bring you joy.
Re: Is this a good idea??? It's so terribly sad :'( He was a very sweet boy and he loved you too. Thinking of you.
Re: Is this a good idea??? Please don't ever blame yourself for what happened. You did the best you could for him. Take care. Run free Ezra. Chloe
Re: Is this a good idea??? Im ok, just cant stop crying so been sent home from work. Managed to not cry for about half an hour and then these flowers and note was delivered and tirned me back into a wreck image by Fwhitt246, on Flickr
Re: Is this a good idea??? My sister. Literally breaks my heart I feel like my chest is going to explode. I any believe he's gone, after everything x
Re: Is this a good idea??? Oh, Frankie, I know how much it hurts - I think we all do. It will get better and you'll be able to smile at the good times you had. In the meantime, don't try to be brave, just get lots of hugs from everyone around you x
Re: Is this a good idea??? I just read through this post and literally have tears in my eyes. God bless you for your kind heart. You clearly gave Ezra a loving home when he needed it the most. (HUGS)
Re: Is this a good idea??? Bit blurry eyed here too....I expect you are feeling quite a roller coaster of emotions right now...I hope you feel better soon, and can look back and reflect on your memories of Ezra with fondness and a smile
Re: Is this a good idea??? Things will get better. As a bit of time passes, it'll get a tiny bit easier. Then you'll be able to remember the happy times.
Re: Is this a good idea??? Right now I am doubting my decision. Thinking he might have been ok for another week or even longer. Did I give up on him too easy. This will haunt me forever
Re: Is this a good idea??? Come on, now. Better a week, or a month, too soon than a day too late. He went happy, and peacefully. It doesn't even matter whether it was this week or next.
Re: Is this a good idea??? Don't go down that road, Frankie. It will do you no good. There are plenty of people who make the same decision as you in terms of letting their pets go before they head into the suffering they know is coming. If you had dragged things along and he got worse and worse and you saw him suffering unrelieved pain and then put him to sleep you would feel guilty that you made him suffer. You did the right thing for your dog, he had happy moments with you right to the end. It's okay.
