Hello,
You posted your question to the vet on the wrong page. Just click on one of the links posted above, and you will get through to the Ask A Vet page. You will get an answer, but it may be a few hours before you do. If you feel your dog needs the vet urgently, don't wait for an answer, just go.
I am almost sure this may not mean having to have your dog put to sleep. There may still be something that can be done for him.
If you are not happy with your vet's diagnosis, do try a second opinion with a completely different vet.
Good luck. I do hope your dog will be OK.
