Found out today that my dog has got cancer, she's an old girl and after multiple vet visits and a bloody big lump being removed I thought I was well prepared for the worst news. Turns out I wasn't prepared at all, cried like a little girl in the vets, pulled myself together to get the kids from school, back to yaring again now. Very sad and incredibly angry. Apologies in advance if I'm a bit more of a **** than usual in the coming days.
That's horrible. I've never been able to pull it together when it comes to the pets and bad news! Wishing all the best!
Nah, cant be cuthbert. Our cuthbert would walk into a hells Angel's bar and make friends. He'd have crips and bloods listening to Jodie Mitchell.
when i took my last dog to be put down i literally howled . Pulled myself together only to start again as i went through the waiting room .
So sorry to hear that. Our dog passed away five years ago, she was 18. Was out with our now two year old dog and a small child stopped and asked what her name was, without any thought out came the name of our other dog.
Sad. I'd always had a dog around the house since I was a kid - though haven't had one for a few years now. It's always sad having to let them go.
Sorry to hear that, proper **** news. Fingers crossed can still go on to enjoy his/her life. Woman’s dog near me that see when walking outside has cancer but he’s a proper cheery boy and living his best life still
To be fair. My team are just jackasses. Every single one of them that I've tried to get tutor a youngster has had the same reaction. Bath is full of Bathstards.
Sorry about this chap. Always difficult situations. I've not had a pet for years now, partly because I don't want to deal with this (but also partly because I don't want the responsibility, expense and mess). The last pet I had was a cat which had been ill with a thyroid problem for a while and then one day collapsed as I was feeding it, couldn't move and was just panting and crying. Straight to the vets for the inevitable when that happened. Horrible stuff.
Thanks very much, I've appreciated everyone's kind words. Unfortunaly I don't think she's got to long left, so all the special diet ****s gone out the window. She's had two bacon butties for breakfast and will be getting a nice bit of steak for dinner.
Good stuff. Might not seem much like it now but it's something of a mercy that you know now and can let her enjoy what time is left and appreciate it properly, and you're somewhat more prepared for the end.
I'm back, stop talking about me. My little jolly has been delayed due to an inconsiderate vehicle. Where were we?
I know this might sound a bit overly sentimental - Our dog passed away at home without any warning (although she did have several issues, one of which we called dogzheimers) and the one thing I'm glad I did beforehand, call it intuition, was one day I just sat and quietly thanked her for being our friend for so long and sharing our lives. When she did go, I took some comfort from having done that.
