Euthanasia of your pet is probably the most difficult decision you will have to make for your pet, even when you know it is the right decision. Being able to remain at home with your beloved pet in familiar and comfortable surroundings will make the situation less stressful and ease the process a little for you and your pet. You will be able to have all the support around you that you need. Vet Around The Corner will facilitate the process in the most sensitive way for you and your pet and if you would like any special requirements, these can be arranged. Vet Around The Corner will take care of everything so you can concentrate on just being with your pet at this most significant time in his or her life. First a calming sedative and pain relief injection is given carefully under the skin at the back of the neck with a tiny needle. This is often essential as it is very important for your pet not to be in any discomfort or feel any anxiety during the process. Peaceful relaxation and sometimes full unconsciousness generally occurs within 5-15 minutes. When you and your family are ready, an intravenous catheter is placed in either the back leg or the front leg. A concentrated euthanasia solution is administered in a completely painless intravenous manner. The breath and heart rate gradually slow to a stop, usually within seconds. During the process you may notice shallow, faster breathing and usually the eyes will stay open. Your pet’s skin may twitch briefly and the muscles may spasm causing one to three sudden deep breaths. This is all normal but may not happen in every instance and is just the body’s way of shutting down.

Following euthanasia, Vet Around The Corner will also organise the management of your pet’s body. When you are ready, Vet Around The Corner will take your pet’s body away to make arrangements according to your wishes. You and your family may choose to have your pet privately cremated, and choose the appropriate vessel (scatter box, urn or ornate box) to hold your pet’s ashes. You also have the option to keep your pet’s body with you for home burial, or you may prefer to leave all the arrangements with Vet Around The Corner without any return of ashes.
