During the 40 years I was actively breeding and exhibiting,I had a Vet who would come to my kennel to give all the puppy shots,and when it came time to make "that decision" would make house calls so the dog was put to sleep in their familiar surroundings and in my arms. . No need to have to take him on that final journey in the car. I have been continually grateful to them.

I don't know of any other vets in my area that would do this, so I am VERY grateful to her. ~Vicki Von Charisma German Shepherds www.voncharismags.com My sunshine does not come from the skies, It comes from the love in my dogs eyes. ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2009.
