    I'm sorry to hear this BG, I wish you and your "boys" the strength to get through this. Enjoy the time you have with them.

    Dogs have their own way off telling us its time - they have no sense of the future, just of the here and now, and they know when its getting too hard for their here and now.

    I wish them well over the rainbow bridge.

    Just want to let you know I'm thinking of you and will be tomorrow too. I remember losing my old girl Beags and yours is a double loss

    Thinking about you, your DH, brother and your babies as they go to sleep today. There will be no more pain for Jack and Whiskey.

    Today will be rough. Be gentle of yourself and each other and remember the pleasure and love they brought to your lives.

    the boys have just left. both feeling pretty ordinary. we stood out the front and again talked through why it was the "right" thing to do. none of us want to - but we have no choice in the matter. DH spent the last hour or so down the back with Jack. they're going in now to get Whisky and from there they are heading to the vet

    my brother told his eldest DD (9) what happened the other day and that Whisk would have to be put down. he told the younger two (DS 7 and DD 5) this morning that she was going to the vet and may not come home. he explained what it meant for a dog to be put to sleep. they know Whisk hasn't been herself. she didn't eat for 8 days last week. all the kids got a chance to say goodbye to her, which was probably hard on them, but easier than coming home from school/kinder and being told it had happened (this happened to us as a kid)

    not having a great morning - but it's happening so we have to suck it up. it's the fairest thing for the dogs and that is what's most important. our hearts hurting a while because we miss them is far better than them continuing to hurt physically.

    sigh - it's going to be a long afternoon

    That's right, but very sad though
