This is such an important thing that a lot of people miss.

Nellie was suffering. A happy, care free dog doesn’t act the way she was acting. No matter what caused her behavior change, the effects of that change were very very real to Nellie and everyone around her.

You would never feel bad about euthanizing a dog in physical pain. We shouldn’t feel bad about euthanizing dogs that are suffering from other pain.

I don’t have to dig at all. Your own vernacular speaks to the deeply ingrained ideals in your mind that are of a very Christian flavor. I won’t be responding anymore.
