Pets play different roles in different families. We did not humanize our animals, and though attached to them, we understood what it meant to send one to the slaughter house and we understood that a dog in agony was likely to be quickly put down, not brought to the vet where a several hundred dollar bill might be incurred. And putting an animal out of its misery at the appropriate time was considered part of growing up and taking on responsibility - probably wouldn't participate at 5, but certainly at 8 or 9.
