I hate it when pets die, it's always so traumatic.
I still haven't completely gotten over my cat dying 2 years ago, I had her since I was very young.
Everything will eventually die when its' time comes.
OP, I'm sorry for your dog, but if you don't let it go, it'll haunt you.
Now is the time my friend. You can keep your memories, or cut your losses.

Meaning sorry for your loss
I recently lost a canine compainion myself.
Cherish Bambi, as much as you can before she passes
I clearly remember the morning my dog died. The week prior to this day, she seemed to be eating less but I don't remember it being too drastic. It seemed to happen so suddenly... it makes me quite sad to think about this day.
Long story short, I looked outside to see my dog breathing with a lot of trouble and decided to play some Need for Speed, feeling sorry, cold, and uncomfortable thinking she would be alright until my parents came back from work. Fast forward only a couple of hours and I go to the window to see our love lying in the grass, sleeping the eternal sleep.
i deeply wish that i was there, outside in the cold to comfort her instead of playing a fucking video game during her last hours.

my mother?
I don't want to be a dick to you OP, but why didn't you call the veterinary when you noticed that she wouldnt eat etc?
Dude I feel for you. My dog is going to be put down today in 3 hours. I haven't been able to stop crying. She was an Australian lab mix. Best dog in the world. Loved her for 15 years until her lungs stopped working. She is on a breathing machine now. So... now I wait.

Tissues for all, sorry I've used some already.
I prefer hankerchiefs. Those things chafe my nose.
Sorry to hear about your dog, I too had a sheltie which I lost my recently and the best way to feel better is getting a new dog. When mine passed away a few weeks after we went to the dogs home in Cheshire just to look at the dogs, not to buy one, anyway, as soon as we walked in a dog that was exactly like our old one (well, same breed, a sheltie) was sat there barking at us.
We went home with a new dog :)
They said they rarely see shelties in dog homes and it's the first one in 3 years or so, he arrived just that night too. We took him home and he soon got used to the idea of sleeping on my bed, even using my pillows. Luckily I have a double bed or I would have been on the floor :v:
Sorry, don't know how to thumbnail

It's so bad that your dog is dying, but at least you can tell yourself that it's not your mother or your father...
If your dog looks like the pic then she's beautiful.
I shed a manly tear for your dog, Unfortunately i never had any pets, I only had a fish. It lived four years, and died. I'd really like to help you, but I honestly cant.
[quote]This one duck got hit by a car and I saved its life.[/quote]
That reminds me of one incident in my life. We (me and my mother) we were watching a small family of ducks when we noticed one of the ducklings was in some form of distress. It was moving wrong and mother wasn't paying attention to the unfortunate creature. We tried to get it's mother to move back toward it, but she(the duck) ignored him altogether. Through a what would be a rather comical in other circumstances series of events which ended in my mother waiding out into the river, we captured the unfortunate creature and immediately set out home, with me holding it in my hands. It was a small, sad bundle of damp fluff. Very weak, too.
It didn't struggle, which, in retrospect having handled ducklings afterward, was odd to say the least. I cupped it close to my raincoat (it was raining at the time and coming down quite hard too) We reached home and made a cot for the creature from a tangerine crate (a small balsa wood affair. fairly tough, actually), a towel and a light to provide warmth. I promptly hit up google to figure out how to care for a sick duckling. Pretty much what we already did. We'd given it some egg yolk (a staple choice for ill and young birds, if I recalled correctly, which it took happily). But a short while later it started twitching. It had gone into convulsions. By the next hour, it was dead.:crying: We buried it quickly. Who knows what it died of. Could have been anything from pesticide poisoning to a disease of some sort. Whatever it was, it likely attacked the nerves.
I've always wanted a collie :saddowns:
My 20 year old cat passed away 5 months ago, it had been around before I was born. I remember finding my kitten dead after 1 day of it being outside for some wierd reason, I cried like a baby.
My other dog ran away.

...and I hope you have to use the one I gave you real soon.
Life's A Bitch aye
13 years? Talk about a long life.
I know how you feel, I had a Labrador who was part of my family since I was about 7. Last year she was diagnosed with multiple tumours all throughout her body. We had to put her down because she was in severe pain, unable to move, eat or drink. The hardest part was that we also have another labrador that was about a year old at the time we put our other dog down. She followed her everywhere and cried when she wasn't with her. After we put her down, our younger dog ran around the house looking for her... its been over a year and our dog still runs out to the pool gate expecting to see the other sitting there as she used to swim almost all day.
[QUOTE=gerbile4;23205609]Simalar thing is happening to me dog. Except it is wayyyyy slower progressing.
She has kidney failure, but things have been looking up as hey kidney function improved over the past months.
I really know what it is like to lose a best friend such as a dog and i really hope it gets better.[/QUOTE]
I don't want to sound harsh, but if she starts getting worse again, it will be better to put her down.
She won't have to die slowly from the pain.
It may be hard, but at least she won't suffer.
Hopefully she gets better
