Hello: You know when to put your dog " to sleep" .... When you see the quality of life is poor. Also, if you see your best pal in uncontrolled pain and discomfort. It is a hard thing to do but many times it is the Right choice to make. If your pal is able to stand on his own two feet and able to go potty. Also, if your pal is able to eat and keep the food down.... then, sounds like he is doing well. When a dog is unable to get up and do his business outside..... When a dog is in uncontrolled pain..... then it is time. I hope this has helped you in this hard time.

∙ 13y agopersonally, i think that once your dog is showing a lower quality of life than what his norm is, it's time. if your dog is contantly in pain, can't control their bathroom habits, has stopped eating and drinking - as sad and as painful as it is, it's then time.

∙ 10y agoIf your dog is in extreme pain, it is better to euthanize them so that their suffering can end. As hard as it may be to let go of a pet, you'd be doing the right thing.
