Hello Tracy: I had to go and take my dog bugaloo to the vet to put her to sleep because she was so sick , she had cancer and we had done all we could several operations, medicines, but near the end she started really suffering and we could not stand to see her suffer so we decidied toend her suffering and I had to be the one to take her down to the vet, all the way down in he car you could tell she sensed somethng was different cuz she cried and yelped and already before I left the house my heart was breaking and the tears could not be held back, For a few seconds there I started to turn back and take her home but then I remembered how she suffered at night and cried so I made myself strong and kept going till I reached my destination and then it got harder because She stood there with me looking up at me with those big brown eyes while I signed those papers to put her to sleep , It wass like if she knew and she understood that I was doing this because I truely loved her, all the time I signed those papers the tears were flowing down like a river of sadness, Even when the orderly came and took her away and I said my final goodbye to her nd kissed her I could not beleive this was happening. THere ws such an emptiness after I left h er there like a big hole in my heart that cold neer be filed. Yes t this day we still remember her and have her pictures out to look at. We feel sad but then we remember all the happiness she brought into our lives and she did live a long life and a happy life so with this we move on. But we shall never forget bugaloo.

Of course I did feel sad when my pets left me for ever. Since many years back my mother in law had kept some chickens. I did feed the chickens since they were small chicks. As time passed by the chickens soon became our dish one by one. I felt sad and refused to take the dish when it was served. Since then I’m reluctant to keep any domestic animals.

yeah,I think someone are so crude,they often the domestic animals just for eating,and do not care to much about the animals themselves.
In my hometown,lots of people kill dogs and cook them.they always beat the dogs till they die.it is so crude,and I hate that very much,I think these pets just our friends and we should take care of them as families.hehe...thank you.

I think pets are so much a part of the family, and in many respects are like kids in the way they rely on you for nearly everything. I always cry when I lose a pet, the pain is no less real because they are animals. And at the time of losing a pet, I always think I will never get another one, because of that hurting, but in the end, I always do.

I definitely cry and get so sad when I lose my pet. Its as if I lost a family member. THe time I had to put my dog to sleep was the hardest thing ever for me and I cried for about a week every tiem I thought of him. Its as if your home gets empty and they have this presence abotu them that you just miss so much. I definitely get sad.

I would be lost without my dog she is like a child to me.It would be like losing one of my children.I have lost pets in the past and it takes a while for me to get over it.I get real close to pets now that my children have grown up and have families off their own.

just last month i lost my pet dog. i was so mad and angry at the same time. coz i know she didn't die of natural cause. my idea is that someone poisoned her. i really would like to know who did it.
