I don't know too many people who bring young, or middle aged, healthy dogs to a vet to be euthanized because they're being inconvenienced by them. Most ethical vets will refuse to do it.
"Hey, Doc, can you put Fido and Spot down for me? I want to go on a cruise next week, and I can't find anyone to dog-sit for me, and even though I have the money for a cruise, I'm a little short of cash (or maybe just too goddamned cheap) to board them".
Try running that line past a vet and see whether he does it, or picks up the phone to dime you out to the SPCA.
And the vet doesn't string up an old or sick dog from a pipe before administering the lethal injection.
