[quote=Anonymous]Dogs are awesome! It is unfortunate that their life cycle progresses much faster than ours. They become such a part of our family. We laugh at their puppy antics and 'survive' destructive adolescent issues. We enjoy and become accustomed to their unconditional love, and companionship though their adult years. Then we have to watch them age, and acknowledge that it is inevitable that soon we will have to make that difficult decision. As heart wrenching as it is, I view it as a duty; A show of appreciation and respect for their unfailing loyalty to let them go in peace and relieve them of their suffering,when it is their time. Anything else would just be plain selfish. OP you ask "How do dog lovers deal with this?". I hate to break it to you, but you are one of us! Our dogs are not mearly possessions. They are integral part of our family. It is a huge loss when the die. We cry, we mourn, we accept .We remember them- Tell the funny stories about their antics to our children... Sometime later, we do it all over again;because as hard as it is to loose them, they fill a part of our heart .We appreciate them for whatever short time they are with us enriching our lives. I am so sorry for your loss, and you have my deepest empathy. [/quote]
