AITA? My brother who is 59 fell and broke his hip.

He has long history of drug use and other lifestyle choices not acceptable to me but whatever it’s his life. As he entered the hospital he had 2 dogs at home. One 4-5 year old Chihuahua and a senior dog that was around 20+years old. This dog has been in decline this last year and when my brother broke his hip, I didn’t know for two days that he was in the hospital and his dogs were in his apartment for those 2 days When I was finally able to gain access to his apartment the older dog was struggling but alive.

But he appeared to be in health decline again. Unable to stand to drink or eat. My first thought was to get him to a vet to assess him and see what’s going on my brother had thought that the dog was going to die two or three times in the last 12 months as it was so I was thinking that the dog was just on his last days and that was going to be it however I had to bring the animal back to my home to care for him while my brother was gone and as I’m doing all this the little dog starts having a more serious issue of his breathing and the only thing that I could think of was to getting to the vet maybe the vet could help him but the dog was actively dying it was the end of his life I’m 67 years old.

I I don’t want my brother’s dog to die on my watch and I certainly didn’t want to hear the dog having this death rattle sound coming from him as he’s actively dying in my living room so my daughter and I went back to the vet and asked the vet what her opinion is and she said that he was actively dying that he will probably be dead within the next 10 hours and that he suffering but because his heart still beating and he still breathes all that autonomic features he’s just a shell my brother is not a well-off financially so my daughter paid for the euthanation and the cremation of the dog so that my brother would at least have something because he wasn’t able to be there with the dog at the very end now that my brother is feeling better he’s blaming me and my daughter for euthanizing his dog when his dog was actively dying and then said that oh we’re not allowed to come and help him clean his apartment which is filthy and no human should be in there that just had major surgery on their body but I was told not to do anything in his apartment and he would take care of it so am I the asshole for trying to alleviate some pain and not have to witness an animal that I’ve known it’s whole life die in front of me I don’t think I’m the asshole I think I did the most humane thing that I could possibly think and give my brother something of a remembrance about his dog and not let that little dog suffer until he passed so now I’m not allowed at the hospital I don’t get to go see my brother because he thinks that all I want to do is to control his life that’s his delusion he doesn’t have anything to control so I don’t know what he’s talking about and he’s upset of course about his animal passing but there wasn’t anything that I could do about that I think he’s the asshole for expecting me to just watch his animal die so I just would like to know was I wrong in making that choice for a person that couldn’t even help himself
