| It`s time :( HI few days ago I wrote about my dog disease of GME. He isn`t getting anybetter and he is ever worse. All day/night he makes circles and he loses balance then he is hitting wall or table. His head is always on left side and he also is circling always to the left. Today I and my famili made a decision that we have to put him into sleep, because he is in big pain and I think he wants to die. I hope your yorkies never get this kind of disease, and I wish you happy many years with our babies unfortunatly I had only to 2yrs with my Lucky, but it was the best time having him around us. It`s so hard to say goodbye to him but it will be selfish to keep him alive if he in so much pain so I think I will be okay.

YT 1000 Club Member | I am so sorry to hear that your baby has not improved. Putting him to sleep was certainly a difficult decision but if he's in pain then please take comfort in knowing that you are helping him. I will pray for you baby and may this angel watch over you always.

| don't second guess yourself. It's the hardest decision ever, but know that you are doing the most loving thing you can by making sure he is at peace. If you haven't already gone, we had a vet come to our home. It was very peaceful and she confirmed for us that it was certain time, and pointed out things we didn't even see - that were signs of pain. it just never gets easy but know that you are not alone and you've been a great mom. |

| I am so sorry that you have to make this decision. I wish all dogs could live long happy healthy lives. Just like people. It just does not seem fair. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this time. Please come here for lots of support.

| So sorry to hear this. Take comfort in knowing this was a most selfless thing to do, knowing when it is time to say "Goodbye". He'll be happy and well at Rainbows Bridge.

| I am so sorry. You are doing something so loving for your baby. He will no longer be in pain. Yes, you will be ok...you know that you have done all you can for him and you are giving him that last gift. He will watch over you until the day you will meet again. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
