yes!

A dog with euthanasia is in incurable pain which cannot be alleviated by drugs.

  • A dog has severe injuries from which it will never recover or which severely compromise its quality of life.
  • A puppy is born with serious defects which cannot be surgically corrected and cannot be endured by the dog; it may not survive weaning or it may not reach maturity (e.g. progressively worsening hydrocephalus)
  • A dog has unresolvable behavior problems which mean you cannot keep it and which mean that it is not re-homeable; the problem behaviors have not responded to behavior modification therapy or to drugs e.g. aggression towards humans which result in people being physically injured (Note: some behaviors are due to neurological conditions/brain damage and are incurable), soiling behavior
  • A dog has an age-related condition which cannot be alleviated and which causes misery e.g. advanced senility, incontinence.
  • A dog is terminally ill and will deteriorate. Euthanasia may not be an immediate concern, but will be later on. Euthanasia may be chosen immediately to prevent suffering later on.
