Krysten, I am so sorry you and your family had to go through this. I imagine is had to be one of the most difficult decisions ever. If I were in the same situation, I would have done the same thing. The safety of your family needs to be most important. I hate to think of what may have happened. You have a young son.

As sick as you may feel now, know that there was nothing else you could have done. You and your family are in our thoughts. Again, I am very sorry for what you have been through.

Godspeed Griffin.

I am so srry to hear about the loss of your dear Griffin. I am sure that there was a neurological cause for his sudden aggressive behavior, and you did everything possible to work around his problem. Under the circumstances, I would have done the same thing, so try not to feel guilty. Take comfort in the fact that he is now healthy and running around with all of the furbabies that have crossed over before him. Thoughts and prayers are with you ~ Cathy

I am so sorry to hear about Griffin. It is very hard to have to make those decisions. You did what you had to do to make sure the rest of your family was safe. My brother had a cocker spaniel that reacted very much like Griffin. After their child was born he became very aggressive towards everyone. They did as you did, tried everything and finally had to make the hard choice to put him down. He had bit several times and you can't have that with your skin baby and other furry friends.

Take care -

The decision you made was not an easy I am sure, but sadly it sounds as if it were the right one. I don't think you dumped your pupp. The lengths to which you went to try to adjust & help him were very great. Lots of people would not have done even half as much. Your baby is at peace now free from whatever was tormenting him. How is your boxer baby dealing with this loss? Take care of each other & be strong.

Godspeed Griffin angelicon

I just want to thank everyone again for all the support lovicon . Dutch is sad but due to the fact that they were seperated for the last month it was easier for him to adjust. He still goes down in the basement with me and looks for him, and thats heartbreaking to watch, but in time we'll all heal. (I hope) angelicon thanks again. Krystin

I just found this thread, and I just wanted to say how sorry I am that you had to make such a hard decision. Please do not blame yourself or feel guilty. I had to make the choice to leave my beloved Cocker Spaniel at my father's house when I moved out b/c my fiance has 2 children and Indy has gotten very irritable since he's gotten older. I was afraid that he would bite them b/c he's already snapped at me and I'm his mommy. I see him often and he's usually fine with me, but he does still occassionally try to snap at me if he's in a mood. No matter how much we love them, we cannot allow them to endanger our loved ones. You did what you could and you gave him a long time to get over whatever it was that was bothering him. Unfortunately, there probably wasn't anything you could have done. Rest assured that he is at the Bridge and is happy and playing with all of our babies who are at the Bridge.

Very Sorry to hear of your loss..and the difficult decision you had to make. Know in your heart you did what was best for everyone including Griffin,
I think he was truly suffering on the inside and you gave him peace
and kept your family & Dutch safe from something worse that could of happened. You did your best to intervene but the warning signs were there and you had to protect your family. Griffin is now Free and running with all the other beloved Furbabies at the bridge. May the care of BW members bring you some comfort during this sad time, and loving memories of the Good times you shared with Griffin heal your heart. ((((( HUGS))))))

RIP God Speed Griffin angelicon

sometimes we have to do thing's in life that don't sit well with us. but even though that is so painful you must move on. you did all you could for griffin. you must think of your family. god forbid if he would have attacked your baby. the vet must have missed something with his health. and his quailty of life was not what you or he would have wanted. you must know that something was not right with him for a couple of years. so godspeed griffin it is time for the pain to stop.
