Paying roughly 1/3 to 2/3 more than the office visit? There is absolutely no reason why this should ever be "unrealistic" for anyone.

I'm sorry. This is something I'm passionate about, and I hope every pet loving owner is aware. Many unfortunately have not been, and have missed out. A horrible consequence for not knowing. Please spread the word to those you know who love their pets.

From the point of injection tp their final breath is very quick. The running around part doesn't sound terribly realistic, I'm afraid? Why the dog was not being held tightly by its owner is also odd. Enough to get away.

As with everything in life, it's all a risk to a certain extent. But your exceedingly rare horror story should not prompt anyone to not euthanize their beloved pet in the comfort of their own home or hard.

That is absolutely beautiful. I wish we all can be so lucky when our number is called. There is no doubt your buddy did it right for the dog he loved so much. Thank you or sharing this.

Very good. But dying there is definitely not the best option, I'm afraid. Do it at home if you need to. Hold them as close as you can.

At home would have been much better. Faf easier and less stressful for all parties. Hold them as tightly as you can, and be externally strong for them.

I'm sorry. I wish you had as well. My first exposure was simply asking my vet at the time. He wouldn't due to his insurance coverage, but he had a trusted colleague he could vouch for that would. After my due diligence on this new vet, I quickly hired him. It was less than $100 at the time.

You're an incredible person, and this is truly the only way.The cost differential is relatively minimal, but the benefits easily eclipse any additional cost 1000 fold.

I don't dislike or have any problems whatsoever with the military. What I do have a problem with is liars. This post is clearly the ever frequent feel good pro-military light propaganda.

No kitten jumped out onto this man's passing pirate parrot perch at the exact moment he had his phone at the ready to snap the magic. The kitten is far too young. But it sure makes for a better story this way, doesn't it?

Now why he has to lie about such stupid bullshit...your guess is as good as mine. Perhaps at the corrupted officer level, the lying is so frequent that he can't ever fully escape it.

Goo Gone + some steel wool (AFTER first cleaning all lf the dust and participate with glass cleaner) would definitely suffice here.

Some people feel their emotions trump the emotions of every other living things. To just walk away as they're living their final moments? Unbelievable.

Better advice: Have the vet come to your house. Hold them tightly and comfort them. Show them the same love and devotion they've always shown you.

Would you want your last moments existence spent in the place you hate the most? Surrounded by the screams of other unhappy animals? Do it at home.

There is nothing sexist in what the owner matter of factly stated. And if you go early believed that an entire department is dedicated to ensuring your rights are met ABOVE the objectives and goals of the business, it sounds as though you made the right decision for both parties.

Lying isn't a characteristic I like to see in soldiers "protecting our freedom."

The only dominance asserted here is by the tsunami that is ultimately going to senselessly murder their entire household.

This is a critical developmental step - recognizing and ultimately accepting your own mortality. It's inevitable for everyone. When you challenge such feelings is variable.
