For those of you who put pets down when your child was young, how much did you share with them? Or did you just tell the child that the pet went to sleep and never woke up?
We will be putting down our 14-year-old dog very soon. DH wants DS (5) to have the opportunity to say goodbye before we take her to the vet for the final time. I tend to agree, but I worry that DS is so young, and I don’t want him focusing on the death, but rather I want him to remember the good.
