[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about the logistics? I have a 10 year old lab mix and hope that he's around another 2 - 3 years but have thought about the end. If he dies in the house, where do I take him? (I live in a condo so burying him in the backyard won't be appropriate.)[/quote] We came home and found our 75 pound dog dead on the dining room floor (he had been in declining health). Options were 1) bury him in the back yard (but we have a very small backyard), 2) we called the city and they told us they could pick him up if we put him in a bag and left it in the tree box in front of the house (no thank you) 3) we picked up the body and took him to the vet (I found an old sheet and my husband and I wrapped him up and carried him out stretcher style to the car- we have a station wagon) - then someone from the veterinary staff met us at our car with an actual stretch and took him from the car to the vet - then we had him cremated and buried the ashes in the backyard. Our other dog was euthanized, which was sad, but better than having to handle the logisitics of death at home. :cry:[/quote]
