Put my dog down last night. He’s had seizures for the last 4 years and been taking 9 pills a day. Last night he had a seizure that didn’t stop, irreparable damage. I found him in a storage unit abandoned and 5 years wasn’t enough with him. Absolutely heartbroken, never been through this before. Any advice? His name was Kylo. Called my mom for support who told me “it’s a dog not a human, you’re being immature.” My boyfriend and I could really use some kind words. We’re so lost can’t stop crying.

I'm so sorry for your loss and no support from your mom, the one person who should. I have a Pomeranian Yorkie who has seizures. He survived a very aggressive Pitbull attack that lived next door to me when he was just a year old. When he turned two he started having seizures, he is now 7 and still suffers with seizures. It's been a long road of trial and error of medications and also CBD oil. He still has his seizures but lately it seems that he hasn't been getting them as often as he used to or lasting as long. I keep a log.
For a couple years he'd have seizures and they would most times linger for an hour to two hours after. I still have the fear every time he has a seizure that he won't come out of it and have to put him to sleep. He's pretty special to me because my mother-in-law passed away the day before my birthday and on my birthday (2015) we were planning her funeral and I was able to get him for my birthday. We are pretty bonded, I can't go anywhere without him crying at the door when I leave can't take him. He loves car rides and goes when with me when he can.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Dogs are true family who give unconditional love. Having lost a few in my life - let me tell you, there is an afterlife for them and they are still around. Don't be surprised when you start seeing real signs of them around.

You did what's best for Kylo - and he wouldn't want you to be sad. He's playing with his friends and family in the meantime waiting to come running back to you.

I can’t imagine the pain you must both be experiencing for your loss. I also want to highlight that you and your boyfriend are incredible people for what you did. Thank you for allowing Kylo to experience a welcome and loving home—we need more people like you!

Throughout my career, I have worked at both “traditional” and “digital” shops. My current agency would fall under traditional but also offers digital services. Our process, roles and skillsets seem way outdated but I wasn’t sure if it was just my opinion or if this is just how it works. For example, we have no CTO or tech leads. Our digital producers feel more like project managers than actual producers. Account Management is just traditional, no real digital knowledge. Feels layered and dated.

I work for a small agency and manage our internal marketing acct. We had very few processes in place when I started. I’ve since created, implemented, and trained our dept. on project mgmt for clients and am trying to convince the owner to apply those principles to our internal jobs. They are resistant because they just want the work to be done and don’t “want to keep spending money on internal jobs”. I’m confused because we’re doing the work either way and “spending” in labor/resources.
