About the Couse:

Those of us working with smaller companion animals are sometimes asked to help companion livestock and horses.  This module seeks to address the similarities and differences. It's designed for small animal veterinary teams who wish to better understand how to euthanize companion livestock and horses.  For those wishing to learn about traditional livestock euthanasia and more information on equine euthanasia, we encourage you to watch those modules to supplement this one.  The book Veterinary Euthanasia Techniques; A practical guide pairs welll with this material.  1 CE credit offered following brief quiz and survey
