I only have one dog left and he has cancer. After he’s gone I’m ready to set sail out of this world….finally. Sadly he’s not enjoying his last days and neither am I.
It might be best to euthanize your dog, to relieve him of pain/suffering. You can always get a new dog or puppy…assuming you would prefer to stick around.
Ofc no other pet can replace the one you have but you can create a new relationship.
Thank you all. It’s been a wonderful journey. My pets are what I have lived for and that chapter of life is coming to an end. I’m very tired and I can’t start another chapter.
This is heartbreaking and I know words can’t help the situation. All I can do is add that I’ve also gone through this. I opted to allow my dog a natural death, in other words no euthanasia, I just held him in my arms as he passed at home. There was a brief moment of relief like maybe that simple act eased his passing to whatever comes next. I hope whatever you choose to do, you spend as much time with him as possible. Animals take great comfort in little things like simple contact or a kind word, maybe enough to offset the physical pain even? i dont know.
My last dog I opted for euthanasia. Even still she had a horrible last few days. I wished the vet could have just done her and then me. But I have one more dog that needs me.

I’m sorry your dog is suffering this way. I fully understand your decision. The love of a special pet is like nothing else in this world.
Very similar situation here. I do understand your grief and lack of interest for all related to this material (and pointless) life.
while ill never be able to fully feel about your dog the way you do, i still feel your pain. take care, chief.
