I’ve had it. I’ll be homeless as of 3/4/13 – with my dog. I won’t give him up – we’ll die on the streets together. Can’t get into a shelter because of dog.
I know nothing of this type of lifestyle – homeless, that is. Frankly, I’ve always lived a somewhat cushy life compared to that. At least I had shelter, a bed, food, access to showers, etc.
I don’t think I can do this. I really don’t. I’ve thought and thought of how I can kill both of us. I know many will think it’s over the top, but my dog would grieve himself to death without me. Those that know us know that to be true so I think if I’m not here for him, he’s better off not here, too. Whatever. We will go wherever together.
I just can’t quit crying. This is a pain I’ve never experienced. I’m more afraid of life on the streets than I am of death.

I’m so sorry for whatever circumstances have led you to losing your home 🙁 There needs to be more shelters that allow pets (some do, but I guess not where you live) — if you feel you must kill yourself I won’t try to stop you, but please take the dog to an animal shelter rather than kill him. Animals do grieve but they can also form bonds with new people. He should be given the chance to live. And if they do end up putting him down at the shelter, it will be in a humane fashion, more peaceful and dignified than however you would kill him.
