How do I go about getting a dog PTS

    Basically for a couple of reasons I need to get one of my mothers dogs PTS. The dog chases people and causes my mother a lot of stress and work by constantly having to tie up the dog or run her and chase after her when she does take off after someone. My mother is busy otherwise and simply doesn't have the time nor energy to keep after the dog and I've decided to PTS.

    What happens? Do I just make an appointment with the vet and they'll take care of everything? Do vets dispose of the body or do I have to do that myself?
    What is the cost likely to be?

    Or maybe get a fence to stop the dog chasing after people?

    Rehoming the dog might actually be a more appropriate solution. Contact some local rescues and they'll be able to help.

    Does your mother (the dog's owner) get a say in this at all? :eek:

    As mentioned - your mother could secure the dog's area to stop it escaping. You could even help!

    Failing that you should contact a shelter and it won't even cost you anything :rolleyes:

    Solution: Dont get a dog if you can't look after it and don't get it PTS because you have decided it can't be looked after..

    Dogs are high energy and need attention and looking after - contact local shelters.. Dont get dog PTS because it is the 'convenient option'.

    Okay musketeer4,
    We have two scenarios that I can see here.
    Either this is the 2nd dog your mother has had that was (or will be) pts due to chasing cars/people: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=101109773&postcount=5

    (cf post #5, made by you on 21/09/16 at 12:14)

    ... In which case, I think you know fine well "how to go about getting a dog pts", what with you having already done exactly that to a dog belonging to the same person for the same issue.

    Or...

    You're taking the piss.

    Perhaps you'd contact me by pm to discuss why I should re-open your thread, in light of the above.
    Many thanks,
    DBB
