Call your vet and ask them, but I would assume it would depend on (1) breed of dog, (2) type of cancer, and (3) how advanced it is. My guess would be $ 5k maybe up to $ 10k, but call them and ask them for a range.

Recently my dog was hit by a car..After Pickles was examined at the vets..it was detertermined that he had severe internal and multible broken bones..And the heavy panting, whining and that LOOK in his eyes..We all agreed the humanely putting him to sleepto end his suffering was the best, only right thing to do…We all stood around holding, petting him as he slowly closed his eyes ..peacefully and feeling the love..It was sad..But if death is inevitable to all life why prolong the living if they are in excrutiating pain……

I just remember my grandfather dying of cancer..The pain, the torture of the pain he felt…And allof his family insisting on his pain medication be increased…And how they explained the what the highest dose allowed…The tears my grandfather shed when we told him that was all …He screamed how he just would pass to the beautiful light to the peace that awaits him….
Instead he died alone, in pain..after 1 year of pain .HUMANE?????
