I had to put a dog down once. I used 38 special JHP. Very quick, but I hope to never do it again.
I'm sure we have one right down the street.The Humane Euthanization Society is very efficient and prolific at reducing the animal population.
The house we lived at for many years was 100 yards from a bridge. A bridge seems to be a traditional place for worthless people to get rid of unwanted animals.Our property is beside a fairly busy country road, and it seems to be a favorite location for cowards (because I won't use a stronger term here on THR) to drop off their unwanted, and often pregnant, cats. The cats usually don't last over a couple of days before we see them dead beside, or on the road. However, probably 20 times in the 42 years that we've lived here, we've seen a cat trying to drag itself across the pasture.
At any rate, a 22lr in the back of the head from my old Model 63 Smith puts the cat out of its misery real quick. I guess you could call the pasture to the east of the house our "pet cemetery," but those cats (including a couple of feral ones) were never our pets in the first place.
I'm sorry BrazillianSnowMan. That must have been unimaginably hard.A mans gotta do what a mans gotta do,
but to kill my best friend like that, in cold blood....
