[QUOTE="Up Y'oars, post: 385263, member: 764"] I've had vet in two difference scenarios. My best and loyal dog had been put down at the vet, but I couldn't manage being there and watching. It was already painful to make the call and drive there knowing what was coming. Just typing this brings the tears to my eyes. :cry: Other scenario was my 1yr pup getting hit by a neighbor as he crossed the rural development road. Truck was hidden from my purview and the truck was hidden from the pup until crossing the road. I swept in to pick him up and put him in my truck. Called the vet on the way only to find out a couple of hours later he wasn't going to make it unless the vet herself would've driven him Bis > Fargo, and then still couldn't say whether the trip and suffering was going to make the 200mi jaunt. I had him put down to end that suffering. It was brutal seeing my guy in pain and watching the injection take effect. I did nothing buy apologize dozens of times and soothing his pain with my hand. Wouldn't be able to take another iteration of that occurrence ever again. I'm too connected to my dogs to take either route again. I think I'd prefer a friend taking it out in the field and doing it for me. I'd have the hole dug in the backyard and we'd cover it intently fast to end my pain. [/QUOTE]
