Venting Will my dog suffer after my suicide?

[DarkDg21]

Will my beautiful dog miss me? Or suffer emotionally after my suicide? She's way too attached to me. Will she think I abandoned her?
I'm heartbroken. But I can't stay unfortunately.

Yes, you don't have to be human to miss someone you love, but I don't think that's you're fault. Even without ctb someone has to leave first, so I think if you do what you can for her that's all anyone can really ask.

Dogs have feelings and are very sensitive. Pretty sure she will miss you, she may even feel that sth is wrong before you go. Unfortunately :-(

My cat would wait approximately 10 mins after I died to just start eating me

I'll plea with my family on my suicide note to take care of her the same way that I do. They know I love her. But in case they can't, to look for a great home for her. I just really hope that she'll be okay.

Dogs might be just a small part of our lives, but to them, we are their whole life

Yea! I've had mine since she was six weeks old, and she's really sensitive. I cannot abandon her to the fate of the universe. The two of us are inseparable. Two additional dogs have joined the family, but I have no concerns about leaving them in my husband's care. She's my baby!

Unfortunately yes, your dog will miss you. They are capable of forming very strong bonds with humans; it is in their DNA. Dogs are aware when their loved ones are not present. My ex-gf, for example, was extremely close to her dogs. Her dogs would starve themselves until she came home, and it was really bad. She would sometimes leave on vacation for a week, and I would stay with her dogs, and they would refuse to eat anything. They would just wait near the front door most of the day. But her dogs had separation anxiety. Obviously idk exactly your bond with your dog, so idk how bad it will affect them. Either way, they know when you are gone.

Could there be a way to get him a home sooner? I really understand what it is like, on the one hand, to have the pain of continuing to live and having to worry about your dog, how old is he? These months I myself have been in this dilemma, I start to think if she will think that I abandoned her or if she did something wrong, it breaks my heart but by adopting her I made the commitment to her and the responsibility If I have her. I'm trying to put up with all of this as much as I can for her. I'm not saying you have to do the same, you know when life is unbearable and it's time to leave, but I wish you could find a good home for him sooner, I hope you find and make the decision that is best.

don't make me think... it's only a consolation for me that she's not alone...
