re: How do you know when it is time to put down your dog?

I have so many urns that I actually need to buy something larger to put them on.

We had the urn but I couldn't really deal with looking at it every day and I didn't want to shove it in a closet. We decided to dump the ashes in Mobile Bay at the spot where she loved to swim. Kind of cheesy but I'm glad we did that.

Someone once told me that losing a dog is more impactful than a loved one that isn't in your immediate family. Not that a dog is worth more than a human, but a dog is probably more a part of your daily routine. That absence can be a little harder to ignore sometimes.
