When I took Peppy in to have teeth pulled I has pre-op blood work done to be sure that there were no "hidden" liver issues" that could cause death if they were "put under. I also specifically requested that Dr. Amy do the intubating and NOT the vet tech and that isoflourin be used to put him to sleep.
DO NOT under any circumstances allow the vet to use barbituates on a Yorkie.
I am sure that others will add to the list of "dos" and "don'ts" |
