It's one of the hardest calls animal lovers have to make: Is it time to put your pet down? There's no right or wrong answer. It's a personal matter for each pet owner. The goal is to keep your friend with you for as long as they are comfortable, but let them go if they are in pain.

When should you decide to put your dog down?
