No I would use the judgement of a qualified vetenarian to make that judgement. I certainly wouldn't go ahead and decide off my own bat whether my dog was suffering so much, that it was cruel to prolong it's existance. Just as I would never assume to go ahead and try to perform an amputation on an animal without the necessary training..
