Well, to be honest if he'd buried her while she was so heavily under, the weight of the dirt/dirt surrounding her face would have made breathing impossible and she would have died I'd think, so he wouldn't have known even if he did bury her... The thought of this has always horrified me.. What a sad thing, he obviously loves her.

You'd think the vet would do a favor to this miracle dog and help his issues if he can be given a quality life.
There's more to this story. A 2 year dog that's so healthy it survived this euthansia has medical bills? For what.....

Cheaper to kill an otherwise healthy pup rather than pay for a vet bill? America..........I love it!

I've heard stories like this before. When I had to send Doerak, I stayed with him for about 20 minutes afterwards to help him cross peacefully. I watched carefully for signs, but the vet said the heart stopped.

But even if the heart stops, I wonder how long they are still aware of what was going on, or how long the spirit stays in the vicinity.

The place I went has a really nice euthanasia room with a leather sofa, soft lights, chairs for family and a lot of tissue. I think I put away at least one whole box.

The dog in the story is 11 and has a spinal problem, making walking difficult. Not sure if there is anything to be done for her at her age.
