I’ve learned the hard way that having a pet put down by a vet is not necessarily humane....just legal. I do the dirty work myself now. Animal does not feel a thing!!!
Years back every man did his own dirty work, as my dad said shoot your own dog and iron your own apron, don’t leave the hard stuff to someone else to do....people also slaughtered and casterated their own farm animals...life was much harder than what we are use to today...
