Trust me, when I made the decision, I spent at least 20 minutes in my room with Rosco. I spoke to him, he played with his bone a bit, we lied on my bed, and I thought deep and hard about everything. Everything Bob said, all my choices, options, avenues I could take... Everything. This was not a rash decision whatsoever, so no matter what anyone says, I know my decision was right. I'm sorry to all those who disagree, but you know what, none of you have ever met this dog, or me. It is very difficult to make assumptions and assessments over the phone, or online. That is why I finally took action and took my dog to Bob. I will not even entertain the idea of re-homing my Rosco. There is no way he would let anyone take him away from me with out destroying them. So that idea is just ludacris. I respect the courage, and I respect all those who wanted a try at helping and fixing my animal, but you know what, the fact is, you couldn't have. Only I could have, and again, like I said before, I could have, sure, but he wouldn't ever be trusted, and that's the fact of the matter here. End of topic.
For all those who have given sympathy, I thank you so much. It was the hardest thing I've ever done. I had him heavily sedated, and kissed him before he left. It was horrible.
But, again, for all those who have given sympathy, and condolences - I can promise you, I have learned a deep, valuable lesson. I thank those who are able to understand how hard it was to make that decision, to man up, and make do what was had to be done. |
Wow, you spent a whole 20 minutes leading you to the decision to kill your dog? Unbelievable.

You are a complete jack@ss!! You have done nothing but annoy the members of this forum and done nothing to help yourself. Yet, you get some assessment and I hilighted a portion of your post in bold---I find that part titillating at best---you were offered options. Hmmm, appears killing your dog must've been the easist, cheapest way for ya!! Sheesh, another member even offered to help, you get no sympathies from me at all, I just offer them to your dog. I'm tired of hearing 'not wired right' (unless of course we are referring to the dog owner) each and everytime someone decides to kill a dog. You are not to be commended for anything, there are too many people on this forum that like to pat everyone on the back when they come to a decision to kill their dogs. Great, just great. I also hope you can become a good liar, if you tell any breeder this story, you will not get any pet in the future, good luck with that. One final thing, don't sit there and tell everyone you put your dog to sleep, you didn't, your dog wasn't dying/wasn't terminal, YOU KILLED YOUR DOG, it is what it is.
Dipper: If you're still here and reading this crap, get used to this. This is what makes me crazy.
