We’re willing to assist our beloved pets, but no discussion of our relatives wishes. I am sure a lot of the anger exhibited is because of the feelings of indignity the individual is feeling. I live in a state where it is an option and I draw great comfort from this knowledge.

The topic does come up periodically. The problem with medical assistance in dying is that those with dementia are unable to give consent, and as far as I know there is no place that accepts an advance directive (for very many practical and ethical reasons). Other than that - my relative works in a nursing home and people might be surprised at how many people there are opting for MAID.
