I find myself in a bit of a quandary concerning my avatar
Freckles ( wags ) the springer spaniel was sadly put to sleep this week aged thirteen and a half
I will admit I have found this far more distressing than I thought I would
And am in two minds if I should change the picture on my avatar
Thoughts

V Tough having dogs put down. I had my dog put down through old age when I was 21. I was crawling up the walls of the vets with grief.
I said I’d never have one again if I had to go through that every 12yrs & I haven’t, yet...

Thank you for the replies I shall keep it for the present just didn’t realise how much I was going to miss her I think I'll have to have mine put down very soon😭😭 I'm absolutely dreading it, she's 15 and her legs are going through arthritis and she has cushings syndrome. I'm more worried about the effect it'll have on Mrs one eye. |

I'm more worried about the effect it'll have on Mrs one eye. You know when the time is right and it's the loving, compassionate thing to do. It's terrible to see a pet suffer but we can fortunately make sure they don't suffer a moment too long. |

Why not create a new alternative profile with a new Username and Avatar. You could then log in as whichever persona matches your mood. One day it could still be you and the dog, and the next you could jump into your new life with a new identity and personality. Either or. Problem solved. In this way the dog could still make an occasional guest appearance.

It's terrible to see a pet suffer but we can fortunately make sure they don't suffer a moment too long. The problem is that she seems to pick up and looks OK for a week then has a bad week(bad as in takes a little longer to get about),i just keep having the thought of am I ending her life too soon. I'm pretty sure she's had enough now though. Her tail has stopped wagging. 😔😔😔 |

The deal with our neighbours was when the time came whoever he was with would take him off to the vets. He had that many days when you thought that was it always followed by him perking up for a week. |

100% keep it.
Freckles will be waiting for you on the other side of the rainbow bridge.
That is all I will want from heaven.
You would have no way of knowing but I would smile every time I saw Freckles on here.
