I have absolutely no problem putting down an animal that is clearly suffering and on his/her way out. If a dog has a tumor the size of a golf ball on their jaw, trouble standing, howls in pain, can eat, but struggles to do so, and elicits no sympathy from their owner and is actually pushed by the owner for being too slow or sleeping in the wrong spot, yeah, call me morally wrong or anything, but I think it's okay to put that dog down.

I see how pet parents want to see their fur baby live as long as possible for several reasons--to be around them as long as possible, to brag about their pet living as long as they do, because they see it as murder, but maybe I'm putting my selfish "mentally ill homo sapien" ideas on another species that if I were not enjoying life anymore (and actually cried in pain every fccking day) because of age-related physical and mental deteriorations, yeah, I'd like to get sedated and have some pentobarbitol pushed.

Your opinion?
