R.I.P Kaymen

[Kaymen]

Hi all I'm new to the forum and sadly today my brother was sadly put to sleep.

I'm not only posting as RIP thread but also as someone who needs a little guidence so to speak.


Kaymen was like a brother to me, he'd been in my life 7/8 year and today my parents took him to the vets and hadn't returned with him, I actually feel a wreck.

I just need some guidance that what has happened was the right thing for him and they've not made a mistake and took him out of my life.


Basically 1 weeks ago, whilst being walked Kaymen had his first ever seizure randomly which lasted around 4 minutes... 3 days later he'd had 2 in the same day again at random both again lasting around about 4 minutes. We'd rang the vets and they ssid to monitor his behaviour, which we did he seemed fine always happy and jolly, ate and drank as normal but then last night, he has 9 seizures 40 minutes in between each one and it killed me inside to see him having them, my parents were away and I cant drive I couldn't get him to the vets so I stayed woth him all through the night/early hours of the morning till they got home and finally took hik to the vets, were in the car he'd had another one but it was bad, the vet had said he slipping into a coma and its not fair for him to be having to deal with these seizures, where the decision was then made to be out to sleep right there in the car as he couldnt be moved in the frame of mind and state he was in.

I need to know please was the right choice made, im so lost right now.

I am so sorry for your loss......it is never easy to lose our babies as they are family.

it sounds as if your parents really did the only decision for Kaymen. I cannot imagine the fear and frustration you felt and dealt with while sitting with him last night. the only thing that you can comfort yourself with, is that he knew you were with him. it is perfectly normal to question the decision made, the what ifs are also totally normal.

everyone on this forum are wonderful people, who love our big babies beyond belief and we will all be here for you whenever you need to chat,vent and/or a shoulder. know you are not alone and have found a place to get excellent support.

again, I am sorry for your loss. Kaymen sounds like he was a wonderful part of your family and life. you were blessed to have each other.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Kaymen was so very lucky to be so loved.

Yes, you did the right thing. We all question if we have done the right thing and we all grieve. That is normal. Remember Kaymen for the brother he was to you. I am assuming that you are young. I won't lie to you this will be a very hard time for you but you will get through it. Kaymen would want you to do it.

Kaymen was a senior dog. Mastiffs in general don't have a long life span. I think with what the vet told your parents they made the best decision that they could.

Please stay in touch.

My heart bleeds for you and your family. It is never easy saying goodbye to a family member. Hang in there. Just know that Kaymen is not in pain nor suffering now not that it takes any of your pain away

God speed my friend.

I also recently hear to make this decision, every day I ask myself if I made the right one, maybe we could have tried something else fact is it was time, I miss my big boy and think of him often.

I have a new little lady in my life a blue cane, who sleeps and eats under a picture of my old boy. Thanks to him I came to love a breed I never would have and I owe him the joy I feel for these wonderful animals and for that I an so very thankful.

Time still ease your pain, memories will remind you of the love that is possible.

Good luck friend

So sorry for your loss. We had to put a family member down almost a year ago, it was really hard.
