Some things should be left private.
Looks like she was a good girl. Thanks for posting.
People want a memorial to a loved one.
An amazing life together. That dog is truly out of this world.

She posted some pics of her 16-year-old dog through the years. Why should that be kept private?
I have joy and grief. The sadness of losing a loved pet always overwhelms me.
A new one brings joy back to my life. Its always worth it.
seems like a lot of misplaced maternalism.
Some people want to share their experience, to bring comfort and healing to others.
Its the best part of our lives that compensate for our loss. And what is life without man’s best friend at our side?
Lovely!

Seconded...
What a beautiful old girl that doggie was. They become part of you, their leaving is a pain that only time can ease (not heal).
That made me cry. I miss my pup.
Where, oh where, would we be without your brilliant analysis???
Yeesh, get some pictures of how our military is close with their canines during combat...Lets see if THAT’S “misplaced maternalism”.

I have pain meds prescribed for me which are appropriate for cats and dogs and give him medication 2 x daily if accepted.
Plan to keep him comfortable in his final days.
