I'm very sorry to hear that you are saying goodbye to Dublin today. Unfortunately, there are no over the counter pain medications that are safe for dogs. Talk to the vet who will be euthanizing Dublin to discuss any sedative or pain management options. Most vets will offer sedation prior to euthanasia to make everything as peaceful and comfortable as possible.
