Today marks one of the saddest days of my life ever. In my pictures in my album are pics of my cat and my dog Raven...
Raven was suffering badly and i could not stand to see her suffer this way anymore.. nor could my roommates Carolyn and Grim.So last week Carolyn made the appt. to have our dog put to sleep.
We were trying to give Raven a chance to get better, but it wasn’t gonna happen. So seeing as her health was declining and her behavior was changing day by day and her eating habits were finnicky at best we decided it best to have her euthanized. Not an easy choice to make by any means, but it was one we needed to make for her well being and to put her out of her suffering. We loved her enough to do right by her. Shes in a better place now, but i miss her badly already. She was like one of my children. When we got her over 10 years ago she was the size of my palms at 8 weeks old....her final weight was 94.6 her time of death after the shot was done was approximately 4:36pm.
I will say it isn’t gonna be the same without her at all. But i am glad and greatful for the time i did have her and had with her.
For a big dog she lived a long life and rarely ever gave us any issues at all health or behavior wise. So we were very lucky and made a good choice when we picked her from her litter..Shes far outlived her siblings most died fairly young.
I give major props to the vet techs and the vet who put Raven down. This is by no means an easy job to do. They have my utmost respect and admiration for a job alot of ppl could not handle. The veterinarian showed major amounts of sensitivity to the three of us, but more so Raven. That was greatly appreciated by Carolyn ,Grim and I.
I saw Ravens last breath as i was standing in front of her. The Vet Was standing off to the left of me directly in front of Raven when she administered the tranquilizer and then the shot.
I started crying before the tranquilizer was given and then i hear my roomies crying pretty hard to..... I’d been holding off the tears all day at work. I couldnt hold off any longer and i started crying once i hit the front door of the vets hospital/dr’s office to be completely honest.
The drive home was very quiet and it felt like a part of me was missing...So if im a bit non talkative to you all that is why. I’m in a process of mourning the loss of my dog....my child so to speak. she was a part of my family.
Raven you are deeply missed. Always loved and never ever forgotten!
R.I.P. Raven. Your the best wolf hybrid/dog ever! <33333
