My Family Is Putting Our Dog Down Today

I'm sad to say this, but my youngest friend will have to be put to sleep. He's old and sick and I don't want him to suffer. Now I don't know how to cope with the loss. What's your advice?

Well done for sharing it with us. But understand that it is better to put him to sleep and end his suffering, because this way you will only make it easier for your little friend. As I know many owners can't get over the death or loss of a pet and get so-called service dogs for emotional support. As I know most often because of depression. There is Service Dog Online Registration where you can do all the paperwork that you need.

Losing a pet is super tough. I posted a few years ago about my pug passing away, similar to what you described. Lots of great comments full of support there.

I like to believe we'll see our dogs again. I absolutely love dogs. Just remember that you gave your dog an amazing life. The fact you're very attached makes me believe you've likely spoiled them and made their (too short) time here an amazing life lived.

Cool ? it was good

dont mind on this, start doing some things you need to do

Bez względu na to, jak to brzmi, ale to lepsze, niż gdyby zwierzę cierpiało.

Dude, I'm so sorry you're going to have to go through this loss, but if it makes him feel better, then it's worth considering that you're making it easier for him. Sometimes, such sacrifices are needed to help your little friend. Coping with this loss can be helped by an emotional support animal, which you can find in specialized places or simply take into your home for a couple of days. If you are having a very difficult time and experiencing depression, then esaregistration.org may be helpful. I sympathize with you and hope you can cope with this loss. Wish you luck.
