We had to put down our old lady dog today... She was 16 and stopped eating, drinking. We had a month old battle with her failing kidneys and enlarged heart through all sorts of medicine dispensed by our vet. She had a few good days during this time but most of the time was in a state of lethargy. For the past two days she refused any drinks and food, almost begging her to end the suffering. Which we did a few hours ago.
It's hard, I know many of you had gone through the same experience but I never really had to put a pet down. The sense of guilt and of playing god is running high right now. I know we did the right and the humane thing, but still... It's hard.
That's all.
