Well, I've had my share put down, and its never easy. One was getting weak quick because kidneys were failing, and veins were shrinking. That one made me nuts because the vet gives a couple of drugs. One slows down and stops the breathing, one stops the heart. Vet gave him the drug that slowed down the breathing, but then couldn't find a vein to stop the heart for the longest, and didn't get it all in when he did, so Bo, couldn't breath and wasn't going out. He was suffocating. That was painful to deal with because he was struggling to breath but couldn't. I was begging the vet, load it up, use the whole bottle, I don't care, get it over with for him, don't let him suffocate because didn't get enough of the other drug in to stop his heart. Poor guy lingered until the vet shot him up with a much heavier dose and got a vein. That was painful.

But, for everyone of my dogs, I held and hugged the dogs in my arms and whispered in there ears from the time the vet put on the turnequate until they stopped breathing and the vets said no more heart beat, and then I still kept whispering for a minute to make sure. I love my dogs and would not dream of sending them into the next world without being there to talk them into it, lovingly. They are family to me, always look up to me, come to me for love and support. I would not think of sending them on without being there with them when they go. Kind of hard to do that if I'm the one putting them down. Best for me to hold them, trust the vet for the $38 that he charges.

You asked...

Today's Featured Article - Measuring with Calipers - by Staff. The legs of inside calipers are curved outward at the extremities to facilitate measuring small holes, while outside caliper legs have a large curve inward to increase their capacity for large work. Firm-joint calipers are adjusted approximately by the hands and then set to the feel of the work by tapping them on a metal surface. It is a common practice when opening calipers by this means to tap the top of the joint. It is better, if possible, to tap the inside of the legs, as repeated blo ... [Read Article]
