How much does it typically cost to have a dog put to sleep?

I have to decide whether to put my 16-year-old dog to sleep. She has cancer, and we’ve been helping her feel better for a while, but lately, she’s been having more bad days than good.

The vet said it would cost $624 to put her to sleep and have her cremated privately. Is this normal? I’m not sure how to ask other places about the price without feeling strange. Any suggestions would help.

Regarding the cost, the price can vary widely based on location, the size of the pet, and the specific services provided.
Your vet’s quoted price of $624 is in the range hence no need for alarm.
