In the case of euthanasia, there are no do-overs. Providing a smooth and seamless experience and peaceful passing is paramount to a good euthanasia experience for the pet owner, the veterinary team, and the pet patient.

In this segment - Part 3 of a 3-part series - Dr. Kathleen Cooney discusses the euthanasia procedure itself, the use of pre-euthanasia sedation and/or anesthesia, euthanasia technique selection, dysthanasia and how to navigate these situations, and how to best support families through the euthanasia experience.

Running time: 27 mins
