Okay, I've been following this thread and now I'm wondering what would I do if Jake, my 10 year old Sheltie, my camping/hiking partner were to get mortally wounded and I had to "put him down". I live semi-rural and there is a pretty busy street out in front and I occasionally catch him wandering slowly across the street to visit the neighbor dogs. He doesn't hear or see really well. I usually keep him on a long lead but sometimes I let him off. I had to go get him today and really reprimand him which really hurts me and him. He's a great sulker but I had to do it.
But.....what if.....funds are so low.....I just don't know how I'd do it.....My neighbor across the street probably has guns plenty.......should I ask him to do it.....should I do it myself......could I ever live with myself if I did it......
