#125: Behavioral Euthanasia with Dr. Chris Pachel

In this episode, we discuss who makes the decision - the vet, the
trainer, or the pet owner; how behavioral euthanasia is an
"active choice" rather than a default decision - there is no
formula, and this isn’t something that someone has to do because
of a specific behavior pattern or problem, but rather an option
that may be actively chosen due to safety or quality of life
concerns that aren’t able to be mitigated; how professionals can
support and guide pet owners through the process; the issues of
guilt and shame associated with deciding to euthanize an
otherwise healthy dog; and the importance of self-care and good
boundaries.
