[quote=Anonymous]My vet had a helpful philosophy: "It's better to be one day early, than one day too late." Waiting too long only prolongs pain and may actually make it worse when you do decide to let him go. Veins may collapse, animal may be in severe distress, etc. Better to let him go now than wait till he is in agony. The other thing to consider is the size of your dog. Can you and your DH lift, carry and transport him by car to the vet - especially if he is in distress? Unless you are lucky and your vet does euthanasia house calls (mine did - doing it at home while pet was in its own bed made it very peaceful and loving) Some points for your DH to ponder...[/quote]
