putting dogs to sleep? i have a question... if you own a dog, can you just decide to get it put to sleep at any time?? even if theres nothing wrong with it? i just read a post how a woman put her 8 yr old yorkie to sleep for no reason (made me really angry cuz 8 yrs old for a dog is still young to me!) does anyone know? |
unfortunately, that is possible. But some vets might refuse to do it. |
my vet wont do it unless he finds the dog not treatable |
I never even thought of such a thing. Who would put down a healthy dog? Good grief are there vets out there who do this? I know pounds will do this if the dog is not adopted within a certain time period as sad as this is but a vet? I would like to hear the answers. Carol & Buddy |
Yea, you shouldn't be able to, but you can. If a vet doesn't the shelter would. It sucks. |
I actually knew someone once who had thier yorkie put to sleep because she had a skin cinfition and was stinky. :mad: She has a new one now. Kim |

What if that lady has a mental problem:shocked7q and wake up that morning and decided to put her dog to sleep and they do it that is just crazy:mad:. I was watching Cesar Milan the other day (The dog Whispers) and there was a young ,beautifull healthy boxer that the owner took to the pound to put her to sleep because she jomp the fence couple of times, grrrrr:angry: that make me so mad. Fortunately this lady came and adopt her for company of her older male boxer thank God; but can you imagine the other dogs, poor babies:( |
I would hope vets would refuse to put down a dog that was not terminal. But so sad that the shelters will do it upon request. I think they should at least have to wait and see if someone would adopt them! I read the post you were talking about. I hope the lady was just being mean saying that because she was made about getting mail -- but she did post that she thought about it initially, so who knows. I cannot imagine how anyone who lived with one of these sweet dogs would have them murdered. |
I know my Vet wont put a dog down unless it has an untreatable condition. I think it is awful to put a dog down otherrwise |
Yes, when I had to have my dog put to sleep they never even asked me why. So, as long as you pay for the procedure they will do it. |
