Had to put my dog to sleep, but the cruelty was unbearabe

Hi Guys

After being sick for many months I finally had to have my dear Paco put down yesterday.   Now it is haunting me so badly because of the cruel way it was done.   I feel so terrible that after loving and caring for him for 13 years that he died so brutally.

The doctor gave him a shot to paralyze him and then he listened to his heart and before I knew it he started plunging this huge needle into his heart 12 times he did it and blood came up through his chest fur and I was in such complete shock because my dogs eyes looked so scared.   I held his head and kept saying I love you, i'm sorry so that my face and voice would be the last thing he saw. 

I went in there thinking he was going to be given an iv and before I could say boo he is killed like that.  I was so freaking pist.  Becca's mom was with me and she started screaming and crying saying how can you do this so cruelly to the vet. 

I can never tell Becca this, I just told her that he went peacefully and my eyes were the last thing he saw.

I am going to report this dam vet and put a negative comment on Yelp about him. 

I miss my Paco.

I want to kick some Vet ass today.  

That is so sad sorry for your loss.  When my mother in law put her dog down it was given one shot and it was over.

Exactly,  that is what we thought was going to happen.   He gave him one shot that he said would knock him out and I felt his body go limp but his eyes were open and he was blinking and them BAM he starts stabbing him.    I was in complete shock.   

Lee I am so sorry to hear that you had to witness this incident. I would definitely report it. Did the vet have anything to say for himself? I would be upset too. There is simply no way to explain it that I can see. He should have just let him slowly fall to sleep. I had a dog euthanized many years ago and it was done humanely and very quietly so I have never heard of the procedure this vet used.        

Yeah he told us that the first shot was to put him in a state of relaxation so that he couldn't feel a thing, and the green stuff that he rammed into his heart was to actually put him to sleep, so in essence he said it was not cruel because he couldn't feel a thing. 

Fuck that it was cruel to us witnessing it.   I told him if your going to use such a barbaric method then maybe you should warn people or not let people be in the room when you do it. 

 How cruel! How could be so cruel to such a precious doggy. He was adorable. I would take him to court for the pain and suffering you endured having to see that. Was there an explanation to why he had to inject him with the needle so many times? Was he having a bad day and took it out on Paco? I am so sorry you have to endure such a trauma. 

He said that he had to inject all of the potassium whatever into his heart so that it would cease his life.  But what I don't understand is why the **** he have to stab him so many dam times.   So he says well once it was started I couldn't stop because that would be cruel.  WE SCREAMED "CRUEL,  you have no ******g idea what cruel is". 

I know the asian culture is different but come the hell on. 

That makes me soooo sad just reading it. That is NOT the way to put a pet to sleep. I'm so sorry you had to go through that.
