[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 522019, member: 11791"] It doesn't help that difficult children tend to see their pets as an extension of themselves. Whatever happens to their pets, they assume is what we would like to do to them. Even in cases where it is due to medical issues (i.e. not agression, but, say, advanced cancer and the dog is in serious pain that can't be controlled), the impact of putting a pet down is HUGE. In a case like this where it's due to behaviour? I can only imagine the feelings that go through difficult child. That doesn't mean you don't do it. But... please have a back-up plan for your son. He's going to need help dealing with it. [/QUOTE]
