I got a question for everyone:
You think it's cruel to put down a dog like this?
that's gone completely blind and probably has dementia as well. The dog had all the common symptoms for dementia while she still had one good eye.
Now the dog has lost vision in the other eye. My sister it's her dog and she will never put a pet down. She's spent thousands on health care on previous pets just to keep them alive until eventually they died in their sleep.
This is the first time it's a dog though. Dogs are different they need humans way more. she's basically holding the whole family hostage to helping care for her dog that....not to be mean but the dog is done.
It has zero happiness in it's life now. I've been helping to watch the dog for 9 full hours on my day off for the past two months. It's completely screwed my days off cuz I work off hours. I'm getting up on short sleep to babysit her dog all day at her house...which has been baby-proofed entirely cuz all this dog does is walk around face or head first into everything.
My mom is 70 and wants to spend winters in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. She came back a month early because of this dog. To help care for it. I can already tell from little comments she's pissed.
I can see it coming things are going to get to a point my sister is going to get an uncomfortable talking to. I know based on the unbroken eggshells around her she's is going to have a meltdown.
Idk why but we are all afraid to tell her the brutal truth. It's selfish and unkind to keep this dog alive the way she is now. My sister walked out of a John Wick in the movie theater after the dog got killed. It wasn't even shown just the noise the dog made.. she got up and stormed out missing Keanu Reeves getting revenge.
This isn't a biased pov but exactly how it is. How many people would put up with this? I'm getting up early tomorrow to help continue blind dementia dog proof mom's house.
We spent 90 minutes today moving things into the garage, wrapping bubble wrap legs of furniture, and blocking areas with pillows and whatever we had that was soft.
This is insane we have to change our whole lives around this.
Sister put your dog down!!!! Wish any of us had to guts to tell her. If it's implied even she freaks out
My sister's bday is 410. So 041,140
