[quote=Anonymous]We've had to do this twice with our daughter, once when she was 10 and again when she was 12. We were honest with her as to what was going on; she could see both dogs weren't well. For the first one, we all spent time with her and then my husband took her out of the room while I stayed with my Maddie (we were at Southpaws with her) and for the 2nd, she stayed in the room as well while DH held our 2nd while she passed. It was awful, but DH and I tried to be open with our grief (to a point) with her. She also has written letters to each dog after they passed, writing down how much she loved them. We have a new pup now, but I have pics of the others around, and I just bought a dog boned shape frame with three openings so I'm going to put pics of each one in there. ((HUGS)) it's not easy. We also just lost my dad this year, so I understand where you are at. Again, open and honest was the best way to go for us. [/quote]
