[QUOTE=ladyj;989194]I asked my vet about this and she said she would do it, but would first try to talk the person into signing the dog over to her so she could find a new home for it. The reason she would do it is that if the person is determined to have the dog euthanized, they will find someone who will do it and it isn't hard. My vet is a dog lover and she would rather see the dog treated gently and with love than just taken to whoever to be put to sleep or maybe shot or killed in some other way. Sadly, animals are treated as possessions in our society and not as friends. I knew of an older woman who wanted her Bichon buried with her and when she passed away, her family rushed the 4-year old dog, who was very healthy, off to be euthanized and they put the dog's body into her casket to be buried with her. It was against the law, but the funeral director just looked the other way. I think it was a terrible thing to do. There was great outrage among the Bichon lovers I know, but it was too late and nothing could be done about it. There are all kinds of cruelty. It makes me very sad.
omg??? couldnt they have waited until the dog passed away?? 4 years old!?!?! WHAT!
