No matter any animal, there will be birth, old age, illness and death, and there will also be times when the illness is "worse than death", so euthanasia has become the choice of many animal doctors or animal families.

Medicinal methods:

The principles of drug euthanasia techniques include: direct or indirect hypoxia, neuronal inhibition of vitality, and direct destruction of brain activity or vital function neurons.

Direct or indirect hypoxia:

It can be done anywhere and can cause the animal to lose consciousness at varying rates. Death without pain and suffering must be caused by the loss of consciousness before the disappearance of movements (disappearance of muscle activity), and the disappearance of movements does not mean loss of consciousness and the absence of pain. Therefore, euthanasia drugs that cause muscle paralysis without loss of consciousness cannot be used as a single method of euthanasia.

Neuronal inhibition of vital functions:

The drug first inhibits brain neurons and then causes the animal to die. Certain drugs can put animals in a so-called agitated manic phase during administration, and they may make noises or muscle contractions. But this was not purposeful. Death occurred immediately with loss of consciousness. The reason was that the heart stopped beating and the respiratory center lacked oxygen supply. Direct destruction of brain activity or life function neurons comes from direct impact to the brain and depolarization of brain neurons can cause the animal to lose consciousness immediately. Death comes from the disappearance of the midbrain-controlled heart and respiratory centers. Sometimes, animals can be seen violently The muscles move, but the animal no longer feels pain and suffering.

Note:

If you want to reduce the dog’s pain, choose to comfort the dog, but the operation must be performed by a professional doctor.
