Putting my dog to sleep today
How do you guys deal with the pain?

Live through it. Accept it. Eventually you'll come around, it's just a phase of grief.
I'm very sorry for your doggo, anon. Why is he being put to sleep?

Its a girl
She's 13 with a tumor and just recently lost use of her back legs, I don't want her to suffer anymore
You'll be OK in time

Sorry anon, had to put my dachshund of 17 years down in December. Best advice I can give is put all her stuff in a box when you get home don't wait. If you have other pets they will mourn too. Give them extra love and make sure they eat.
Grief is like an onion, it has layers and as the layers are removed it gets smaller and smaller. Just remember what you are doing is is for her, waiting longer is selfish. You are doing the right thing.

That's just the price you pay for loving an animal. It won't be the last time. I'm sorry.
You don't.
You take that pain like an arrow to the heart and slowly pull it out over the course of several months. It'll still ache a bit every so often, but the warm memories will remedy that.

I wish I could hug you, anon. She's a beautiful dog. She knows how much you love her.

I'm sorry for your loss.
I know the pain of having to put someone beloved down.
Honestly, I try to cope with it by just assuring myself I gave him a good life and he had lasted a long time, and that I had many wonderful memories with him.
Stay strong anon, I know it's hard.
It's okay to cry too, don't let it bottle up.
Please take care.

it's been a few days
I drank a whole bottle of jack and a few beers and the pain hurts more than ever
it's hard just waiting for her ashes

By pretending it's not there. That's how I deal with all my pain and loneliness.
