    Default RIP Beloved Zaine

    I am writing this to thank everyone who contributed to the thread "my dog has cardiomyopathy".
    Zaine passed away peacefully and humanely at the vets yesterday.
    He was only diagnosed with Dilated Cardiomyopathy 3 weeks ago and had been taking Vetmed and diuretics to keep him comfortable.
    I sought a second opinion from a veterniary cardiologist and his advise was that Zaine was on the best possible medication "vetmed".
    He was given a few months to live.
    However Zaine's condition worsened during the 3 weeks he received treatment and he had not eaten in 3 weeks and was suffering exhaustion. It took every bit of energy for him to breathe so I had to watch my best friend as he lay on his side all day and night struggling to breathe. The vet told me that I had to make a decision as to whether Zaine had any quality of life and what was the best thing to do for him.

    So yesterday I decided that I would have him put to sleep. I held him so tight as he slipped out of my life. I am glad that he is no longer in pain. Now I just have to work out how I am going to get over my pain. I feel that at 6 years old it is not fair and I should have had many good years left with him (my old great dane Zoe lived until nearly 10 years). I am so devastated, and emotionally and physically exhausted from the last few weeks - I could not sleep coz I kept waking up checking that he was still breathing and getting him water as the diuretics made him so dehydrated.
    I can't stand the empty feeling in this house - no more happy dog at the door holding a toy in his mouth to greet me when I get home.
    I could not even will myself out of bed this morning.
    Words can't even describe the pain and grief that I am feeling right now. I miss him so much. Life is just so cruel sometimes.

    Thanks again everyone for your kind words and well wishes for Zaine.

    What a big beautiful dog. You did right by him and I'm sure he's happier now. *HUGS* for you.

    Sorry babe. But you did the right thing. And you know all dogs go to heaven. I hope you take a few days off to just mourn and be by yourself. RIP Zaine.

    I'm so sorry. It's so hard to hear about the loss of pets....I think I might like animals more even than humans...I'm so sorry you had to lose your friend, Zaine, and I'm sure he appreciated your doing what was best for him even though it hurt you to do it. RIP Gorgeous, Faithful Zaine.

    I am so very sorry for your loss. I know all too well how much it hurts.

    I am certain that you will one day see your beloved Zaine again...and when you do, he will return to you the piece of your heart that he took with him.

    awww, I'm so sorry! I was hoping that the situation wasn't as bad as you'd been told. Poor baby. I'm about to cry reading this so I can only imagine how much you are hurting.

    I'm sorry for your loss.

    It's been about 2 months since I had to have my boy put down. All I could tell myself was that I did all I could for him.

    You did all you could. You gave him the best home you could. And, you loved him. He would not have asked any more. He loved you. And, he trusted you. You never let him down.

    I'm sorry. Really sorry.

Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the McKetrick supplicants, they chose a new form for him: that of a giant Slor! Many Shuvs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!"
