Description:
Euthanasia is the humanitarian death of an animal, performed by a method that produces rapid unconsciousness and subsequent death, without the goal of reducing pain and / or agony, or a method that uses anesthetic drugs in doses sufficient to produce a loss of consciousness. The present work is a bibliographical review approach to euthanasia in small animals and to bring a survey process over a period of 25 months, in which 2,982 animals were attended and, 41 were euthanized, 95.12% of which were dogs and 4,84% are cats. As three main causes of this euthanasia have now always been distemper, spine fractures and neoplasms.
