Previous Message Previous Message https://www.animallaw.info/article/overview-animal-euthanasia A few decades ago, some pet owners tried to make provisions in their wills to have their pets euthanized once they died. The companion animal owners were afraid that, after their deaths, no one would take care of their pets. These wills were contested in court to determine if the testators’ provisions ordering the euthanasia of the pets were valid. The courts always consistently declared such provisions in the will to be invalid as against public policy. Today, there is no need for pet owners to worry about their pets after the owner’s death. States have enacted pet trust laws to ensure care for the pet after the owner’s death. Previous Message Previous Message So a woman recently died and instructed in her will that her dog, which should have several years of life remaining, be put down and buried with her because 'nobody could love the dog like she did.' I'm sure it's legal, but it seems wrong. Would a court enforce this instruction if the person handling the estate was unwilling to do it?
