How to kill your best friend * 3
    #19079731 - 11/03/13 10:50 AM (10 years, 3 months ago)

See that beautiful little bulldog that is my avatar?
Her name is Banana.  Formerly Savanah.
We've spent over a grand this week trying to figure out what's wrong with her. Two vets and a neurologist. On Wednesday she woke up completely blind and unable to walk. One vet said she had a stroke. Neurologist said it wasn't. Either an immune disease, infectious disease or cancer. They want another 4000 to do an MRI and spinal tap which we can't afford. Especially just to find out that she needs more expensive treatment. Right now we have her on a variety of meds to treat a variety of disorders and she's taking pain killers but she seems miserable.

We decided that we wouldn't keep her alive for our own sake, that if she was in pain that we would do the humane thing and put her to sleep. But how long do I wait for the meds to do anything if at all?  I haven't slept in days because I've been up all night with her whining and barking. I know she's scared because she can't see or walk.  I can barely see because I've been crying nonstop for days.

I know someone here has been in the same boat. How do you put down your best friend? I really don't want to just drop her off at some crematorium. I wanted her to die of old age in her sleep but now I've got to make the hardest decision of my life. I want to be with her when she goes. Should I feed her  a shit ton of opiates? I don't think I have the heart to put a bullet in her noggin.

Sorry to be a bummer but I really need some advice. If you've had this problem, what did you do? What would you do? How do you kill your best friend in the whole world?

Are you looking to do it yourself?  Just have the vet put her down, you can be with her the whole time.

i dont know if vets will make house calls, but that would probably be best


if i had to do it myself id probably use a gun, i dont think overdose of opiates would be very fun, but maybe a combo of perfect amount of opiates and a gun

OP, take her to the vet. He can put her to sleep with medicine there. I'm so damn sorry for what you're going through. I know what its like to have a sick pet and not enough $ to get him /her fixed.

Cant the vet put you on a payment plan? Usually, I know this is sad,  but when my cat was sick, our vet told us if we spent the $ to try to fix him and it didn't, he wouldn't charge us the $200 to put him down.

If any other shroomerites want to donate $ to help OP get his dog some peace, speak now or PM me or whatever.

OP I'm so sorry

A lot of vets will make house calls. Unless it was a massive opiate overdose it wouldn't be very fair to the dog..It would have to be done IV to be sure it did the job quick.

Do your friend the last act of kindness you can for her and have the vet come to your home.

It's hard I lost 2 dogs in a few months who I spent a ton of time with. One had cancer and when they went to do surgery the vet said it was everywhere and there was nothing she could do...She said she would wake him up for me but I didn't want to be selfish and told her to put him to sleep without me there. You have the option to do the right thing so do it.

It is a responsibility we take when we get dogs/animals. We keep them alive when they probably wouldn't have lived this long in the wild anyway and sometimes we have to put them to sleep because of it. Just be thankful for the time you had and your dog knows you are doing what's best.

It sucks sorry to hear.

A lot of vets will, that's why you rarely ever see farm animals at the vet. It will cost more of course but it will also be a lot less painful for both parties.

Also you can just take your dog to the vet and be right with him when the vet administers the dose.


It's not fun. :sad:

She just turned 8 in August. We've had several bulldogs and they all keeled over at 9. Banana was by far the healthiest, slimmest bulldog you've ever seen. She would go hiking, swimming and skateboard like a champ. We totally expected her to outlive us.

Yes, she's had bloodwork done twice this week. No diabetes. Tested positive for lyme disease which she contracted 3 years ago but both vets said that that was just from antibodies still working against it. No correlation.

That sucks man.

Viva's advice is good.  I took my cat to the vet to have him put down.  They handled the cremation end too.  It really sucked but the little guy was in pain.


I'd go the vet route.  It's not as ugly as a handful of benzos.

It is what it is. I wouldn't wait very long before I take her to the vet, in fact on the first day of not being able to walk/blindness I'd have her put down. Bullet in the head, opiates, I guess it all ends up the same way but for my own peace of mind I'd take her to the professionals and have her put down that route. I think it'll fuck you up worse if you start trying to play doctor. What if things don't go right? What if it suffers even more? Sorry to hear about your dog unfortunately all good things come to an end.
