[quote=Anonymous]We need to euthanize our very old dog. (Actually I wish we'd done it before things deteriorated this far, but that's a different post.) I tried to prepare my 9.5 year old today and she is horrified that we would kill our beloved pet. So I'm talking to her about quality of life and how we must do the kind thing ... but I'm also hedging by saying the dog could pass on her own. I think we need to do this next week, and I plan to have a vet come to the house. Should I be honest? Or do it while she's at school and say the dog died?[/quote]
