Abigail Grace Price, 27 , and John Kerr, 30, were left distressed after a call to the vets to arrange a peaceful end for precious pooch, Bear.
An Ayrshire couple say they were left in tears after vets offered to put their dying dog to sleep in a private car-park.
The stunning Great Pyrenees dog had been struck down with degenerative myelopathy - a condition which affected the poor canine's spine and nerves. And Bears’ owners didn’t want to inflict any more pain by lifting him into the car for his final journey. “We called Vets4Pets looking for advice on putting him down. We weren’t comfortable lifting him and putting him in any more pain.“The call-handler just said to give her a minute and she spoke to her manager.
“We had already spent thousands on treatment for Bear at the Ayr vets, they knew of him and his condition.“But the service at the end was just shocking.” Abigail added: “We’re so glad Bear got the right outcome and was put peacefully to sleep at home like we always wanted.“They arranged transport for him to a crematorium straight after.Vets4Pets is owned by UK pet store Pets at Home.
