[quote=Anonymous]Those of you who love dogs and cats might appreciate this one.

A few weeks ago, we had to make the difficult decision to euthanize our beloved 13-year-old dog. We struggled with enormous feelings of irrational guilt even though it was clearly the best thing we could do for our sweet boy. The vet said he could live 3-6 more months with a lot of treatments, but his kidneys and liver were failing, in addition to the diabetes he’d been diagnosed with a few months before. We didn’t want to put him through that— we didn’t want him to suffer.

The day after, my husband came to have lunch with me at work. I was still so upset. I got into his car, and there was in the space next to us a van with its back door open and inside was the same model of dog ramp we’d been using to help our dog get into the car for the past 2 years since his back legs weakened. He loved going in the car.

I looked closer and plastered to the driver side door was a bumper sticker: “Lord, please help me be the person my dog thinks I am.” Seeing that made me remember how much my dog loved and trusted me, and eased my guilt a little.

So we drove to lunch and as we got out of the car and walked to the restaurant, there were two women walking towards us. As they approached, one said to the other just two sentences that I heard loud and clear: “Are you going to get another dog? You were so good to him.”

(Of course at this point I lost it and ran back to our car so I could cry. But it felt like a very comforting sequence of messages.)[/quote]
