There are 3 stages of hospital euthanasia: Sedation, euthanasia and care of remains. During sedation, Dr. Gizycki will administer a sedative which will help relax your pet and lead to a comfortable sleep within 15-30 minutes. Sedation is typically administered as an injection. Euthanasia follows after the sedative is administered.
After the euthanasia, once the family is ready, it can be arranged for Dr. Gizycki and her staff to take the remains with them for private or communal cremation if you elect not to bury your pet at home.
