[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tell them exactly what the vet told you and have them help you shower the dog with love and treats to make sure she/he has the best last days.[/quote] Pretty much that. And if they aren’t aware of what it means to put an animal down, tell them that too. Explain the kindness, explain that your vet will help you figure out when. And look up quality of life scoring methods for dogs—it helps you “see” what is happening. We found it very useful with both our cats. Don’t be afraid to cry in front of your kids. You can all be sad together—and decide how to memorialize your dog too.[/quote]
