| I'm not a vet but I have a dog with cancer. My vet told me that I will know when it is time to put my dog down. He said there are several things to consider. 1) Pet's quality of life- does it eat, sleep, drink and seem to feel OK 2) your quality of life - is your pet becoming a burden to you and you are starting to resent it. My dog was given 30 days to live in October and she's in my back yard watching my other dogs play right now. She's not ready yet. It's hard to accept that your four legged child is dying but, with time I've come to terms with it. My prayers are with you. |
