My cat is 13 years old so im really unsure of having him under for getting his dental. Fortunately he is very tolerant, and i can use an at home unltrasonic scaler on his back teeth. It isnt perfect but i can get most of the tartar off.

Vet bills these days are going to drive people to stop adopting.

I believe no matter what the dog or cats going through I believe with all my heart that is wrong to euthanize the animals.know one Has the right to put an animal down I don't care what the law says God gives and God takes it. And no one has the right to play God. I have a dog myself and if and when my dog is get really sick I wouldn't even think of euthanizing in my dog I will leave it all in God's hands.. and another thing if your child was really really sick would you put your child down.

Not all euthanasia is this peaceful. I have had to put animals down in the past, always from old age and disease. The vet always used an IV and things were quick. I had to take my 12 year old grandkitty to a strange vet because I had to move out of state. My GKitty was showing obvious signs of renal failure. I moved because She lost my job. This vet wanted to do lab work on a cat who had not been able to eat and drink for 4 days. My GKitty was also rapidly losing weight and was hiding. He lost his agility to get up on the bed. He could barely walk. The vet stabbed him in the stomach with an anesthetic that she said would put him out so she could inject the heart stopping meds🥺. He cried during the injection and than he began to try and crawl away, he was licking at the air, struggling for breath . The vet had left the room expecting to return to a tranquilized cat. He was having none of it. She stabbed him in the stomach with a second dose as I held him in utter horror. This wasn’t what I had ever experienced in putting an animal down. He stopped moving and the anesthetic did its job. She wasted no time in giving the final injection. She was a cold blooded woman. On my way out, clutching his blanket after making cremation arrangements, I couldnt even open the door to leave through my tears. The Bish receptionist yelled at me “pull not push”. I got his ashes , fur and paw prints back 2 months ago. I can’t even look at them. He was my daughter’s cat.My 25 year old daughter had passed away 7 years earlier and had the ashes of her other two cats put in with hers. One died before my daughter and one died after. I’m sick remembering how he fought and cried. I can’t even think about it. I’m devastated and in deep depression from losing my daughter and the GKittys. Hope I can go soon.

Goodbye my furry friend. 😥

Thought my dog had a seizure. Could not stand, head was crooked, emergency vet: $500. It was an ear infection.

My Chihuahua ate two full vibes of grapes, will he be ok?

University of Guelph (Canada) study published in April 2023 counters these claims: “This study is the longest, controlled feeding study to date to assess cardiometabolic health in healthy adult dogs fed pulse-inclusive diets,” This latest U of G research, which appears this month in The Journal of Nutrition, found that dogs fed diets containing up to 45 per cent whole pulse ingredients and no grains over 20 weeks showed no indications of heart issues. As well, the dogs’ body composition altered less than 0.1 per cent from baseline no matter which diet they were on, suggesting they also maintained lean body mass.

We are located in Michigan. Where is the closest surgical center for us? My 10 year old Chihuahua was just diagnosed with a grade 3 heart murmur and a heart that’s just on the borderline between normal and enlarged. The vet said she isn’t in CHF yet and we have her on Vetmedin. She is coughing every morning and I’m so scared.

My dog had one seizure he was on 3 d vectra and interceptor plus , do these drugs cause it

Hi! Did you ever make a video showing how you made this dummy ?

Thank you for this video- i rescue cats and recently had a kitty that we think may have this, i just wanted to learn more about the process if im right:) we’re bringing her to a private clinic in an hour.

My old dog has.a brain tumor. It’s pushing his eye out. I just noticed that now, it is preventing him from being able to open his mouth all the way. I’m in complete agony with the thought of having to put him down, but, I know if he can’t eat and drink any more, it has to be done. I hate this. He is a retired service dog. He’s spent his whole liek doing the jobs be was trained to do. He deserved to have a peaceful retirement and not this ending.

As a child, I wanted to be a veterinarian but was discouraged by my mother because I was already calling Cornell University at age 11 for guidance on things, and she did foresaw a daunting Ivy League bill. It was providence of G-d to block my path considering all the things vets go through that move them closer to suicid@l ideation and su!cide after the abuse I also survived. It is confounding to be turned away from an acrivity you love, nevertheless. I hope you find peace.

I’m so sorry for the trauma you’ve gone you. Thanks for sharing your experience. I hope it can help pet owners give a little more thought to their communication and treatment of their vet and staff. I can only imagine how hard it is. Your video brought tears to my eyes. I’m so glad you’ve started on a path that should bring you more peace. I’ve often thought of what my vet clinic goes through. what they see on the daily! I give them thank you cards and bring in treats. They sacrifice a lot to do their job. And in an ER vet, I don’t think I can even comprehend the emotional burden. I hope you have a wonderful journey going forward. And you have great skin! So your products must be great 😃

watching this after 14 days after i had to put my 14 year old dog down

Slow down th video

May your soul find peace and happiness .and deep powder.

Amazing, my wee mini Schnauzer cross with a king Charles went into stage C CHF today and it's just devastating to watch. Rang around the Vet Cardiologists in Auckland (New Zealand) and we don't have the technology to do the open heart technique (stop the heart and pump the blood around on the machine they use on humans). Be absolutely amazing if we could access this technique and technology here!!

Wishing you powder forever!

Remember, leave no turn unstoned

My 4 month old puppy boxer is suspected with this after 2 er visits. Each visit different diagnosis, and finally During a conservative treatment vet appointment . Vet decided to put my puppy on antibiotics. After for 4 days and a HUGE difference , my only concern is bet only prescribed antibiotics for 1 month. ..

😢

Yeah, IDK about that. Correlations are not causative

Please include inches AND centimeters not just ceterimeters .help us learn while we view please

Gtfoh greedy vet !

Thanks you for this, my Husky is leaving our family tomorrow after a chronic kidney failure. Losing my best friend of 7 years is going to be hard.

Thank you. Basil is gettint an echo tomorrow

Thank you for letting me know the point of backing out. Helps a lot

According to the vet my cat has some black teeth and may need extractions, he's 13. On one hand I know if he continues as he is, he may get diseases from bad teeth and gums, but I'm afraid of him dying during the procedure

❤❤❤

So just to clarify no ultrasound gel is used for this then

my cats heart stopped while she was under anesthetics but they got it back to normal. I was wondering how rare is that and should we look into it?

I just found one on my dog's top gum on her front teeth but it doesn't seem to bother her

So im going to be brutally honest, and kindly dont judge me until you hopefully never wear my shoes. I smoke cocaine because it helps my pain more than opiates i won't get into the facts, but one fits into your Mu receptors, and the other cuts off your pain nerve sensors in our brain. I know that tiny crumbs have gotten in my carpet or couch. I wake up one morning sadly to my carpet chewed up in places. Before anyone says im cruel, i had my accident 3 years ago. I got my G.S 10 years ago. I live my dog more than anything he is never more than 3 ft away from me. I would never intentionally harm him, but i really am serious when i ask has my dog become dependent or likes eating cocaine and irs feel. I joke with my friends when i say i am putting him in doggie rehab but part of me is serious what should i do and is my dog literally carpet searching

Hello my dog just got diagnosed with a heart murmur, Im looking to get a second opinion can you help?

That’s how my dog was

I should've known better to leave Philadelphia cream onion and chive uncovered even for a few seconds. My cat licked a little bit for a few seconds. The cream cheese was still a little cold not so soft and creamy. I read the label on the product. It says it has dried onions and chives besides other ingredients. When onion and chive are dried, are they less potent? I did call the Animal poison control by the ASPC I was disappointed they charge so I was not able to get the help I needed for my cat i don't have enough money now. She told me all they would help me with is to tell me to look out for symptoms only if I paid. She never mentioned about helping me to know about her weight and determined from there even if I paid her.. All i did is to give her a little bit of her dry food with water; my kitty ate and drank all the water and I said a prayer for my baby that in 2 to 5 days of keeping an eye on her she will not have any negative affect. There use to be where you can call at all hours the poison control holine even for Animals, and there was never a charge. They really did care for your animals and helped them. Monday August 5th I will call her vet and let her know what happened and she will let me know if her licking for few seconds some of the Philadelphia cream cheese with onion and chives will affect her or not, and what I can do for my cat. Can you give me some advice on this please, I'm really concerned for my cat. 😔

So what is forwards failure

My dog is 12 years old and is in stage B2. How can i sign up for this procedure?

Sadly for those who work in animal care the healthcare is not advance as it should be. That is down to us as a society valuing "animal" life as less worthy than our own when we are nothing more than another species of animal. When you end suffering you are helping both your patients, the pet and the human, more than you will ever realise so thank you so much for being there for us going through that horrific experience. Pet insurance exists for a reason. People insure your pets for their sake sod yours. Vet staff do not want to euthanise any animal even if it outside of their area they are devastated doing it. It is the area of last resort to them. The problem is the cost of "adoption". I live on the 10th, 11th US, floor of a tower block, so I only wanted to adopt FIV+ (the cat version of HIV but more easily spread) or those that no one wanted to adopt because they were missing bits. I aid no when they said the cost for healthy kitten was the same as that for an "unadoptable" cat. I could easily get a "perfect" kitty for free, but that is not what I want now. I want to give the unadoptable a furever home. If you are obsessed with getting a pedigree then pets are not for you.

The only truth about this painful time in a pet owned human life is you must never, and I mean NEVER, leave them alone. Hold them at the time as it reduces their stress and pain. Never leave them alone at the time that they need you the most. It is rare that we mere mortals do that to the point my vet was surprised when I held my cat and told the nurse to go away. She was there for me through difficult times so she deserves me to be there for her,

Nice technique

How do shelter workers have heart to euthanize perfectly healthy animals? It makes no sense. 2 million per year? That is absolutely ridiculous!

Hi John, I have my dog and I saw your comment and I would like to hear more from you. How many days specifically have you stayed in the ICU? How was the extended life, did energy increased? heart rate? any medical benefits? many thanks for your help.

My dog has a lump also. Its fat one.

I just found one on my yorkie. She eats fine. It looks scary

💛🐝

Thank you

First off if you think this is sick then why would you watch it ? To think people would get offended by something where it says clearly no dogs were hurt. I live with chronic pain and I'm disabled. I have a German Shepherd that I love more than life. Maverick which is my German Shepard had somehow sniffed out one of my prescribed medications. I rushed him to the vet. Luckily he is was ok, however if you think this next part is a joke and your biased then this is where you need to please stop reading... I have to keep a particular medication completely away from him. A few weeks ago I found him taking the bottle out of my medication bag. I think he honestly now had wants more be a use he liked it. German Shepherds are incredibly intelligent. I find it ironic how he tries to get into the same medication which is highly addictive. I was researching if dogs can be one addicted not by something they are prescribed but by their own conscious descions. If you can't handle that then I'm sorry you are so sensitive. Even if the channel wassce to be a joke it gavee laugh and to know all the dogs were ok made it more amusing. if the channel showed any dogs that passed I wouldn't have watched it but as I said I'm in chronic pain and sir on a couch 99 percent of the day, be grateful none of you have to hope you can find something to smile over and laugh over when you wake up feeling dead inside everyday. I'm grateful for any time I can smile. Also I would never smile over someone else's misery or an animals misey. I really hope none of of you ever have to wake up every day in so much pain you have to ask a neighbor to please feed your own pet because some days pain is so bad I can't move. Now if you want to say a smartass comment remember the part above where I asked you to stop reading ?? Think about who is the plebian now
