Thanks shedrech , she has an awareness he is unwell and the vet suggested bringing her along but not to see the euthanasia but to see him afterwards. To be honest there is probably not an answer as both scenarios, take mum or not, will be difficult.hello @Gerry C
a warm welcome to DTP
I suspect it wouldn't be wise to take your mum, as you just won't know how she may react
if she at any time asks about her dog, and doesn't really take on board what has actually happened, maybe tell her the dog wasn't well so is at the vet's to see what can be done and can't come home until the vet says so ... it's not wholly untrue
