Getting a dog put to sleep

    So, the time has come for a family member, who is on very limit means to get her old collie euthanized.

    She is in a state in case the vet asks for hundreds of euro for the procedure. Is there an alternative way to get a dog put down legally for free or a small cost. Dog pound, animal shelter etc?

    Dublin area

    Can she not ask how much it will be in advance. I got one done a number of years ago. I don't recall the cost so I doubt it was that much

    Yes, she can. Thanks for the reply. I just wanted to explore if there are other avenues, in case she can't afford the vets.

    It Costs about €100.00, and that was with a home visit.

    Hope she stays with the dog to the end, very cruel on the dog otherwise.

    Thanks, I didn't know they were still going. I'll tell her to give them a buzz.
