In the dimly lit corners of the dog world exists a thing called Behavior Euthanasia (BE). If you are here, you have likely heard the term. Briefly, it is the choice to end the life of a dog based primarily on a history of problem behavior as opposed to a medical issue such as cancer or old age. Medical issues may play a role but they are not the primary issue in BE. 
 
Dog guardians facing it for the first time have some difficulty with what it brings. First hand conversations include expressions of confusion, grief, deep sadness, desperation, second-guessing, guilt, doubt, and sometimes even shame. There is always so much uncertainty. Discussions about BE are disorienting at best. 

During these sessions guardians will be able to walk through the behaviors moving them toward BE as an option, measure quality of life, discuss other appropriate outcomes (if any), and discuss all of the emotions that go hand-in-hand with an agonizing decision like this one.
