At the last veterinary confrence propofol was by far the safest induction agent. Recovery time was shown to be faster using sevo. As far as pre-meds each vet has thier own prefrance. I would set up an appointment with your vet prior to anesthesia and just ask them what drugs they use and why, most would be glad to fill you in on what they think is the benefits and downfalls of the drugs and methods they use. Just be sure they do preanesthetic blood work too because regardless how safe the drug is your dog could have impaired organ function or a condition that would be adverse to a certain drug.
