Murphy is leaving tomorrow

Murphy's mammary cancer has gotten the better of her now, and she is going to be euthanized tomorrow. She is having troubles breathing and she is not producing much urine.

You're doing what's best for Murphy, even though it isn't what's easiest for you. That's the sign of true love.

I'm so very sorry. You are making the right decision. Murphy is lucky to have you, you have provided her with much love and you are now doing a very unselfish thing for her comfort. You did all you could.

I had to put down my dog after 10 years - I have to say, it was one of the hardest experiences I've ever had to go through. It was at that moment, I realized how much our dog was apart of our family, our daily routine, our life.

I know what you're going through. Like everyone's said, just know that it's the best decision for Murphy! My thoughts are with you and your family!

she's a beautifull girl. I'm so sorry. I know it doesn't help, but at least you'll be freeing her from pain. She'll be waiting for you at the Bridge.

I am sure your heart is heavy tonight. Come back when she has crossed over and tell us how it went. This is the last, most loving thing you can do for her. I'm not sure if animals feel gratitude as we understand it, but if so, she is grateful to you for not letting her linger any longer.

well, i didn't get to say goodbye. the poor baby couldn't wait until tomorrow to go, she got up out of bed to get a drink, peed by the back door, took another drink then laid under a table and never got back up.

At least she was at home and among loved ones.

im going to miss the heck out of her.

My sympathies are with you. Our Fred left us 2 weeks ago tomorrow. It is always terribly hard to say "goodbye".
