its a mercy killing for my bestfriends' german shephered who gave birth to 3 puppies, and we were like jumping around with joy last two days ago... i name the youngest and im so proud, just few hours ago my friend told me the mother "lila" is not feeling well, she rushed it to 24 hours veterenary clinic... and now, they dont have the right medicine for unknown symptoms... i went there and saw the condition, shes like a paper lying down the big splinter and as i went closer, she even tried to wiggle her tail coz shes use to me as a very joyful playmate... lila is not recovering and they tried to operate her, but due to lack of specialist, shes still there waiting with some pain relieving medicine. my heart is slowly melting, how can this be, as i saw her by the next hour shes just lying for the heck of breathing... i wanna do something to help her save her but we dont have that much to send her to a flight for a good specialist besides she isnt improving at all... my friend told me well just have it doze with a sleeping drug so she'll rest peacefully but im getting histerical... i cant allow it. the vet said its a deases that killed most dogs and i cant even hear a word. shes helplessly not living and shes smelling bad now, im crying but had no choice but to let go life. im just sharing this pain to you anyone who finds time to read this, coz its beaking my heart. maybe i'll just let them do the mercy killing to stop the pain. i dont know, i just dont know. another loveone leaving us and giving me heartaches...

Sorry that you experience this. Whatever happens just think of this that everything, all that is happening around us is made on purpose. Trust in the divine knowledge and have peace of mind. Hope things will be better on you soon.

I'm sorry, it's always awful losing a pet, a lot of people would find it daft, but you do develop a bond with animals. I know that I wasn't best pleased when my dog had to be put down for cancer, but when it's in a situation like that I always think it's better to put them down rather than not only watch the animal suffer. But also use up valuable vet resources. Good luck.

i'm sorry to hear that.. we also share the same experience although mine was a bit different. my dog is an epileptic and every time epilepsy attacks it's hard for us to see so we decided to stop her pains and we called the veterinarian to end her suffering.

Yes, the pups wont live without a mum unless you take care of them and hand rere them. Let lila go and love her babies. Such a sad story.

That is so sad. I'm sorry to hear about your Lila. I know what it's like to have to put a dog to sleep because of a disease. It's the best thing to do for them, but not so easy for us. I hope your puppies live.

I'm sorry for Lila, she sounds like a good dog. It's always sad when pets pass away because they are like family to us.

I know how hard it is to get over the loss of a loved pet. I lost my kittens when they were not even a month old. I saw them die in terrible pain. And now i realise it was better if we would have relieved the pain by mercy killing them. You have done a good thing by mercy killing Lila instead of letting her suffer. You have done what is best for her. Be happy! She left you her best gifts..her puppies, her Little Lilas:)!

Killing of mercy - Euthanasia
Since euthanasia has been created for another term of the phrase mercy killing. I think euthanasia is legally accepted for other's point of view. It may be applied therapeutically on the part of the object or it may be a sin.
