How do you feel about your dog now? Are you concerned about keeping her/him, I'm afraid I might have to PTS a dog that's killed like that. Don't know, hard question!

I'm so sorry for your situation. Definitely have your lawyer get the records on the dog's medical treatment. It sounds like the dog's injury shouldn't have resulted in his death.

As far as euthanization, no way. The dog invaded your dog's territory and most dogs will defend what's theirs. The fact that the invader was a much smaller dog is irrelevant. It's not the dog's fault that the vet may have been less than competent.
