I am sad this morning`

Not an April Fools post.

This morning I just got home to find my dog has died only minutes ago (within 30 or so minutes prior to my arrival at home). I have just had the onerous task of figuring out what to do with her remains and trying to move her so my kids are not just sitting at the window staring at her (she died outside). She is a Great Dane (about as large as I am), so you can imagine the difficulty I am having trying to deal with her remains in a dignified way.

Rest in Peace Maxine.

My condolences.

Oh, man. My condolences to you and your family. I would highly suggest calling your veterinarian, and asking about what your options are for dealing with the remains.

 

[Umbran]

Yes, call your vet - they should have options available.

I'm sorry for your loss.

I'm sorry to hear of the news.


This past week we just learned our own dog has a very high level of Lyme Disease in his system. We are faced with expensive medical or watching him slowly die.


Vet would be the best way for options. Escpecially if you live in an urban area.

Thanks folks. I have been in contact with the local humane society. They are helping me out. The hard part is that I cannot move/load her by myself, and I have to wait with her covered up so my children don't stare.

As do I. Sorry for the loss. The picture kind of tells the story, makig this kind of a dumb question, but were the kids close to her?
