Have you ever been in a position where you felt like you could have saved an animal but there were limitations that kept you from doing so Or there was a chance a patient may have lived but due to uncertainty of prognosis you were required to euthanize them Our veterinarians make life saving decisions every day without the limitations of traditional private practice. This means more effort goes into trying to save an animal more experience is gained in doing so and our vets get to see cases that normally would never be given a chance to live live!
