My ILs had to put down their dog today :(

[Deleted]

They rescued her 12 years ago, and her health has been rapidly declining in the last few months. DH is so sad. I can't imagine how my mil and FIL are feeling.
This makes me terrified of the time in the distant, distant, distant future when we might have to make this choice.

i'm so sorry. it's never easy to make that decision.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I've had to put an animal down before and it sucked.
My current cat is slated to live until I'm 100 - or at least I tell myself that.

I'm sorry.

I am so sorry. It is so difficult to lose a beloved pet.

I'm very sorry. I was just talking to a coworker about family pets. Our beagle died 6 years ago at the age of 15 and I started crying when I talked about him.
