My nearly 17 year old dog will be put to sleep on Wednesday at 8:00 pm. She started going downhill this weekend, and isn't improving (kidney failure), so my family feels putting her to sleep is in her best interest.
I don't remember a time without her, I was three when we got her. I can't really express how sad I feel, she's like my little sister.
This is the first time I've had to put an animal to sleep, and I hope I never have to make such a decision again. I never imagined having to choose my dog's death. I'm hoping she will pass before Wednesday, but at the same time, I want to be there with her, and I don't want her to be in any pain or discomfort.
I'm trying to prepare myself for the days to come, but I don't think anything can really prepare me for this. Does anyone know where I can get some water from the fountain of youth?
