If you feel your dog should be humanely euthanized, you can call your veterinarian's office and ask what the cost of euthanasia is - the price can vary so call around. You can also check with your local animal shelter or humane organization - let them know this is a medical euthanasia (if that is accurate) rather than for your convenience and they may be able to provide free or low-cost euthanasia.
