[quote=Anonymous]The subject line basically says it all. Our kids are 11 and 9, away at camp for the week. Our instinct is to wait until they return to tell them the dog (an older dog, which they knew was at the end of her lifespan) had to be put down this week. How have others handled this--tell them now or wait until they're home next week? We've had to put dogs down before, so we won't be introducing any new concepts to them, but this will no doubt be a tough loss for them. [/quote]
