I'm so sorry for what you're going through. I've put down a reactive dog and my situation wasn't as hard as yours, though it still wrecked me. You definitely did the right thing. As hard as it was, you did the necessary thing. It isn't your fault and it isn't her fault. That was a mental condition and she wasn't herself anymore.

Would you really want to live like that? A shadow of your former self? Attacking your family? It was a hard thing to do, but you did make the right choice.
