If my dog is diagnosed with a deathly illness, he will be put to sleep the day I get the diagnose and I will say Good Bye My Friend, and I will not prolong his life with just one day!

As Larry said, a week, 3 months etc. doesn’t make sense to a dog, and you just fool your self if you think you do your dog a favor to prolong a "death sentence"

You will miss and cry, no matter if you make the decision the day when the dog can still walk into the vet with a wagging tail or you wait a few months to carry a dog in pain to get the reliving syringe.
