I am so sorry to hear about the pain that you are going through with Blanca. I must add that I had a vet come to my home, and he only charged $20 or $25 extra (don't remember exact cost) to come directly to my home after his shift at the vet hospital. It was truly the most peaceful way, in my opinion. My yellow labbie, Beener, didn't mind car rides so much, but I just wanted him to be in an area where he was familier and comfortable. Before the vet was due to show up, we had the whole family come over to love on, and say goodbye to Beener. I piled a huge pile of blankets and pillows...a WONDERFUL place to lay while he was sent to Rainbow Bridge. I also had candles burning and really calm, instrumental music playing quietly in the background. The lighting was dim and the environment was morose, but very, very peaceful.
When the vet came, he was very kind and caring, as well as professional. He let us all gather once more before he got the injection ready. The rest of my family could not bare to watch, so they waited at Beeners' dug out grave in the backyard while I held Beener and stayed with him.
It was so horrible sad, but it was also so peaceful. I will never take another of my pets to the vet again to be euthanized. It was really a peaceful way to go, and the doctor was so reasonable with his charges, as well as extremely sympathetic.
Best of luck, Peace, sympathies, and hugs from me and my furfamily to you. I am so very sorry that you are going through this
P.S. I would also like to add that there is nothing that you can or should do to euthanize Blanca by yourself. There are products that can kill a dog w/o prompt veterinary treatment, but the dog is usually in extreme pain while the poison eats away at their system. It would not be painless or quick. It would be just the opposite, and unfortunately you could be up for charges of animal cruelty if anyone were to find out. I would not recomend it.
