Our previous dog went to sleep artificially. I hated it but I couldn't help him! He developed something I hadn't heard of (megaesophagous) and I was told there was no effective treatment for it; 80% of the family cried and I regret taking the youngest along because he regretted the pet's passing more than any of us ("I've known him my whole life!" - well, you can imagine)and he had dreams about it for quite awhile. So did I. I hope this helps with your conceptions of hypocrisy? (Scottstall? cymell?) Hypocrite is what other people call you when they see you behaving as you do; you only come to call yourself a hypocrite when you see yourself as others do, or when you change your thinking and come to think you might've been wrong. Um, I wish I'd let the dog die in the backyard. That's what makes me feel like I was only half-right.
