I really hate this post. I’m a veterinary technician and in every clinic I’ve worked, this is the complete opposite of what happens. 80-90% of owners elect to stay with their pet during the euthanasia. Maybe the clinics I have worked at are outliers, I don’t know. But I do know that when the owners choose to not be present, us vet techs and the vets themselves do everything we possibly can to comfort the pet like it was our own.

They are mighty brave people having a black Newfoundland and a white couch.
