  1. I put my boy flash down 48 hrs ago I don't know what in going to do he was everything to me I have PTSD and deep depression and he was my emotional support dog 🐶 and now with his loss I feel lost live in a city I grew up in and have no speaking family members or true friends he was it … Pray 🙏 for me I'm hurting badly 😢😭…

  2. Dr. Jones my beautiful girl (Amber Lynn) is eating and drinking, but she isn’t urinating as normal. Blood work doesn’t show kidney disease. The tests were unremarkable. She is 16 yrs old and is more lethargic than normal. She has a large mass on her mammary glands. The vet tested the mass , but it didn’t say that it was definitely cancer. The only way to verify if it was cancer would be a biopsy under anesthesia. This seems too extreme to me. I really don’t know what to do. Do you have any advice based upon the history I gave you? This is truly breaking my heart. If you respond, thank you.
    Sincerely, Tina

  3. My son was only 2. I got him during quarantine and IDK WHAT HAPPENED HE WAS FINE AND THEN HE WASNT!!!! When he fell o the ground after the shot a part of me died too!!! I can’t breathe. John Wick!!!!! I miss you papa

  4. I think a lot of people do it too early. They know that it’s inevitable so they just scheduled it to get it over. My friend did this with her dog which I had helped raise and adored. On our way to the clinic for the appointment we stopped and got Buster an ice cream cone. He enjoyed that car ride and ice cream so much that he was literally smiling and wagging his little tail. We immediately turned around and took him home. It just wasn’t time. He had a couple more happy weeks with us.
    Same with my18 yr old cat that we just had to euthanize last month. He had kidney failure and was very skinny. The vet recommended that we scheduled it, but I knew that Bob was still enjoying life. He ate and drank from his fountain. I carried him outside for sunshine every day. He looked terrible but he still purred. Finally he suffered a dislocated hip and couldn’t handle the anesthesia to fix it so we were forced to let him go. But I had 2 extra months with him that we made happy memories!
    A lot of people think just because they can’t get up and around like they did before that they have no quality of life and should be put down. But think about how you would feel, even if you were in a hospital bed with family coming to visit if you could still laugh and talk and hug and enjoy good food. I’d want to stay as long as I wasn’t in pain. Just my thoughts.

  5. Thank you for this video. My cat "Meatloaf" has finally reached this time. He's 15yrs & 11months. All the signs are here. I really was in denial but last week's visit to my vet really helped me see. Especially today. He has been an extremely intelligent cat and a faithful friend. Feel like I have been selfish these last few days. Tomorrow I will take him to my vet and say good bye.

  6. I can't really make myself have our pets euthanized. I know they were in agony until their last breath but I did my best to be there with them until the end but sometimes they choose to go when I leave them for minute as if they didn't want me to see them die. One mistake pet parents make is to leave their dying pets with the vet but they don't know that their pet cat or dog actually looks for them before dying and wants their presence until their last breath.

  7. This is very helpful as I have a 20 yr old cat with CRF and weight loss. He's still drinking but has bowel issues and he's lost weight. He had a fluid bolus and an Nsaid and antiemetic at the vets. We have a mobile vet who will do euthanasia's in the home and that is what I will do if he continues to fail. I read somewhere that the animal will let you know when they've had enough. I do believe in an afterlife even for animals and that I will see all my beloved pets again some day.

  8. My old girl if she makes it will be 19 on the 1.11.22 she's eating and drinking more but very skinny.i bred her myself she was born in our bungalow.she sometimes wandered round in circles,wees and poos on the floor, we just clean it up and sometimes wags her tail she's she's getting a stroke ,and we're talking to her. You hope they will just pass peacefully and quietly in there sleepb but the more often than not wont, but a vet once told me they rarely do,I did my first diploma in animal care and management many years ago.I am still unsure whether to have her pts at the vets yet, It is just so difficult, part of my course was that i spent a lot of time in the vets, seen most types of domestic pets pts, as well as the other things that go on .It is not nice to see but when its your won its especially hard xx x

  9. For me it was the hardest thing to do to my dog😢 she was blind couldn’t hear pooping in the house I trying everything 😥😥😥 I feel so bad and guilty can’t stop crying !never again

  10. My little buddy crossed the rainbow bridge today… He was a senior cat who I adopted from the pound about 2 years ago. He couldn't keep any food down and was soon diagnosed with cancer and heart problems. After chemo, daily meds, pain killers and lots of good food, he began to decline fast. His poos, bloody even with the meds, his energy levels non-existent… And his appetite diminished… And with my vet's recommendation, it was with extreme sadness I had to make that decision and let him go in peace.

    I still feel so much regret and doubts about whether it was too soon. Yet, the longer I waited the more at risk he would be for congested heart failure. And the vet did say the latest she'd recommend his end of life appointment would be within the next few days… Now, he is definitely at peace and I hope he can now move freely and fly wherever he wants to go, and not loose balance to the slightest touch.

    Thank you so much for sharing such valuable information. It helps lessen the regret of his loss. He'll always be that spicy cat who talks everyone's ears off. Taro, rest in peace my handsome little lad. ✨🌈🐈✨

  11. It is very humane, but what can a person who doesn't have the $500 it take to do this for your pet. If you look it up on the internet it will tell you between $50 and $100. What they don't tell you is that they will charge you for an exam. They don't tell you the price of cremation for your pet. I don't have this kind of money. So, my 16 year old dachshund will end up laying on my bed with me caring for him. He has stopped eating but still takes water, most of the time, but not always. Today to got off the bed twice wanting to go outside. His poor little legs are just trembling. I had to go out and pick him up too bring him back in. Which is very hard for me as I have mobility issues myself. I have no choice but to let his waste away, because the veterinary community is so "humane" to every animal.

  12. Thank you for this video. My cat was recently diagnosed with stage 3 kidney disorder (on Saturday). She has been vomiting profusely and the appetite and water drinking has decreased significantly over the last month or two. Since Saturday (this is late Monday), she has not been able to eat more than maybe a quarter cup of food and a few tablespoons of water. What she did get, she later vomited up with much more volume than she consumed. You kind of touched on that exact issue. I have some options but my vet said based on his experience and the numbers of my cat, any treatment would probably work for six months. I really don't want to extend through the use of subq fluids as we will be right back at this point in the near future. One of the hardest decisions to ever make but it has to be done to keep the pain away and keep quality of life up.

  13. My 10 year old cat has 1.5 day left with me. It feels weird having it schedule when she will leave me🥺 i have never needed to make this decision for a pet before. Its breaking my soul. How to stand when all our routines are braided ? Im scared for the emptiness 😥😥😥

  14. The vet that did my baby hadn’t given her sudation and went stright today the. Injection I was holding my gs she was in loads of distress we’re she Evan butted me in my nose she was crying this made me hustericul and fever stayed ste hhad an anormas lump and Evan steroids didn’t stop ld she was my baby and best friend so raw only two weeks ago she was ten yrs old but I miss her so much the bigges energy in thit growling with in two weeks it grow to both bigger to hold in both hands,I feel so guilty now watching this as nothink was explained I’d had sav since she was 9months old so she was my baby and best friend I’m missing her so bad only two weeks ago she did have more hard lumps growing fast I feel so guiltily.xx

  15. My wonderful Cooper, my perfect GSD, completely trustworthy and my best friend and one of the world's best souls, left this world on April 29. I hope I did the right thing. He had terrible DM and/or IVDD – he didn't deserve these crosses – I can only hope that we meet again. I wish I could just crawl under a rock and stay there until I die.

  16. I always said that once my Shih Tzu starts to stop eating (after having tested other options) then it’s time. This was always my marker. She has chronic kidney disease and is often nauseous and does not eat well anymore for a week now. She has been through a lot and we were her caregivers. We are facing the saddest decision. I wish I could make her 10 years younger, I would give her a decade of my life if I could.

  17. Thank you for this. I had to have my 14 year old cat put to sleep an hour ago. She had end stage kidney failure. She had to have her bladder expressed manually. She was weak, vomiting, and in pain. That’s no way to live. I feel glad I was able to do this for her, but god I miss her already. But thank you.

  18. Thanks for this information that a vet wouldn’t explain to us, my cat died in my home. But I do have Apple 17 he still okay it’s saddens me when that time will come. My other 2 cats are 13 Pecanpie Almondmeal brothers. I give your supplement every day will face it but not without a fight whatever I can afford!

  19. I had to do it to my cat December 14 worst day of my life I love him so much it hurts I don’t know how I am coping with it but I am Devon was his name and he was the best thing that ever happened to me just letting people know that life does go on but it’s so sad I am lost without him xx

  20. I just got told my cat has cancer and only has 4-6 weeks left. Honestly I can't see that because other then some constipation she seems very fine. I have noticed a little weight loss though in recent months. I figured that's part of old age with cats.

  21. The saddest thing about owning a dog or cat…. I worked with a very kind and compassionate veterinarian who used to say to pet owners…. "Helping your friend die peacefully, is one of the kindest things you can do". It's not easy though….

  22. Euthenising a pet is a personal choice on behalf of the pet, since they cannot ask or not to be euthenised, sure it must haunt those who made such a decision, but one who chooses to not euthenise their pet or mother based on one's perception of their pain or quality of life, does not mean they are selfish, some may never lose hope until their last breath, some believe in miracles, some believe existence is sacred, some believe suffering has a cut off point where comma takes over… pain and suffering is in all forms for people and animals. We all hate suffering of others and ourselves, children in Syria and Yemen suffer excruciating pain from many diseases and hunger, but would their mothers choose such an option or never give up hope to the last breath.

  23. I just got given the bad news today that my dog has grade 3 mast cell tumor. I’ll be meeting with the vet soon to go over options…I can’t fathom her passing away. I’m so scared for when that time comes 💔😢

  24. Thank you for creating this video. I just euthanized my service dog 7 days ago. He would sleep most of the time. He would eat his food if you added human food to his dog food. The day before he was euthanized, his rear would fall to the floor/ground every time he stood still, but no issue if he walked. I wanted him to die with dignity and not when he couldn't walk. Yes, it was the hardest decision I made, but the dog is not suffering anymore. I hate the feeling of emptiness, but that will get better with time.

  25. I'm balling my eyes out watching this, I had to do this 5 days ago. My 14 yo pit. She had constant severe it's, severe diabetes, and anemia at the end. She's couldn't walk from either the last UTI or her arthritis. I wanted to try to keep her but I knew I couldn't stand her being in pain.

  26. What if your dog has pulmonary hypertension, enlarged heart and periodontal disease due to the previous owner who neglected them and anesthesia will kill them. And they have happy days off of their medication but they hate the medication and has reaction when they take it and have to be on a pill just to live. When is it time? Because I don't feel taking a life I didn't create and at the same time don't want this sweet dog to suffer. He finds joy even while he's hurting, but he hates his medication off it he's so happy but in pain and copes. But again he has pulmonary hypertension enlarged heart and tested positive for Lyme 😔
