Hello Everyone:
The link below will take you to a CAETA blog post that describes Dr. Kathleen’s advice to veterinarians faced with a request to perform euthanasia for clients who’ve witnessed dysthanasia. Even though it’s extremely unlikely that I’ll ever have to request another pet euthanasia, because I’d do just about anything to avoid ever again being a personal caregiver and because I was only providing care for one, some of you may be forced to consider additional euthanasia. This post will describe some important things to watch for when you consult with a veterinarian about euthanasia. Dr. Kathleen advises such veterinarians to ask clients what happened during the dysthanasia, to try to explain why it may have happened, to describe what will happen and to allow all the time needed to provide maximum assurance for the clients that risk of dysthanasia is minimized.

OK! Now you know what they’re advised to do. But there are also many things you can do to minimize dysthanasia possibilities. To learn what some of those are, please visit the Prep for Pet Euthanasia page of this website. May neither you nor any of your companions ever experience another dysthanasia!
