Should You Say Goodbye To Your Dog. The fact is that some dogs are just too difficult to keep, depending on your situation. The most painful experience that anyone could go through is having breathing problems.

These feelings just prove that you loved your dog. If you prefer to say goodbye to your friend on your way out of the house, it's best to keep it short, sweet, and very calm, and perhaps briefly pet the dog — don't linger, pout, or express your own sadness about leaving, just say goodbye and walk out. You and your family know your dog better than anyone else, so try to make a reasoned judgement on his or her quality of life.
