re: When people can’t put their pet down when the pet is suffering

A vet once told me one of the saddest things about putting an animal down is that the owners often don’t want to be in the room. So in the moment of the pets last breath when they are terrified they’re on a steel table with just the vet. if you’re going to do it I’d recommend having the vet come to your house and being there with the pet while it happens. I did this many years back and to this day It still brings me some joy that I was there for him in that moment.
Very true.. having to put my beloved dog down was one of the hardest things ive ever had to do.. but the fact that i was able to be in the room with him at the vet’s office (it all happened too suddenly to arrange a home visit) while petting him and comforting him was a huge silver lining for me, and still makes the whole deal a little easier for me to process.. i cant imagine my boy having to be there alone at the very end, after all we went through together over the years, and how many times he stuck by my side through the ups and downs of life .

Just want to say that this can be done at home if you have time to arrange it. I had to put down the best dog I ever had. The vet first gave her sedative that put her under just as if she was to have surgery. It was very peaceful but still the hardest thing I have ever done.
