There are millions of heartbreaking things in the world, and losing apetis one of them.
However, losing them without a chance to say goodbye?
Thats a whole different kind of heartbreak.
The golden retriever had been with him for 12 yearslonger than his marriage.
She was there through lifes ups and downs, and she meant a lot to him.
The OP noted that thedogwasnt in obvious distress before he left.
She was slowing down, sure, but there was no sign that she was at deaths door.
However, when he returned from his trip, he returned to an empty home.
No barks, no waiting at the door.
But probably nothing could have prepared him for the news he was about to hear.
By the time he asked his wife where their dog was, she admitted to putting her down.
According to her, the dogs condition worsened while the OP was away, and thevetadvised euthanasia.
His wife insisted she did it out of kindness.
Rather than burdening him with the pain of seeing the dog suffer, she made the call herself.
But the OP wasnt convinced.
To get answers, the OP called the vet but he didnt get a response.
Things that are increasingly important in todays world.
Making assumptions about the others thoughts or intentions can lead to misunderstandings, they state on their website.
This is what makes for a healthyrelationshipwhere there is mutual respect and trust as it strengthens the bond.
In an update, the OP said he had called the vet and wasnt sure what to think anymore.
What do you think about this situation?
