Like everyone else is saying the Vet is the best way, the animal just peacefully goes to sleep and it is a good memory in comparison to the way I was raised.

My last dog I had to put down was my Sheltie, she was an awesome working dog and a great companion. I was deployed and my wife had told me that she was laying in her own urine and feces we decided that we would send her out peacefully. She had been senile for a few years and just sort of confused generally the last few years. She was only 13 which is young for a well maintained Sheltie. She took her to the Vet and the Vet gave her the shot and she went to sleep peacefully and the Vet cut some of her hair for my wife as a keepsake.
