Veterinary Euthanasia Techniques: A Practical Guide, 2nd Edition

Kathleen A. Cooney

Practical how-to guidance to compassionately and confidently care for various species of animals through euthanasia

Veterinary Euthanasia Techniques offers how-to guidance for performing euthanasia techniques in dogs, cats, exotic animals, horses, production animals, and, in this new edition, zoo and marine animals. This edition has been reorganized by species to make it easier to find information, with each species-specific chapter covering restraint, equipment, sedatives, and techniques. Sections discussing drugs and data have been updated throughout, with new discussions on how to handle pentobarbital shortages and animal welfare considerations.
