The Schnauzer Forum

Had to have my beautiful miniature schnauzer Olly put to sleep last Wednesday - he was 15 yrs old.
He was really ill - the Vet said he had probably had a tumour/or spinal stroke.
It happened so fast.
Im in a terrible state - cry all the time.
What can i do?

The grief and sense of loss is huge, as is making that decision to put your beloved dog to sleep. The only thing that I found helps is to try and remember the good times, the puppy moments, those long walks, those holidays together, the cuddling in the sofa together. Looking at all the wonderful photos you took of Olly over the years.

I was devastated when I had to put Rupert to sleep 2 years ago. The sense of loss is huge. It has taken a long time to get over it, but I keep looking back at the great times we had together, and, yes, I still cry occasionally.
