Obviously people become vets to help animals. However one thing that would bother me if I became a vet is putting an animal down. Have you ever had to do this? Do most Vets encounter this situation in their carrers? And is it up to you to comfort the owner of the pet?

Hi, Euthanasia (killing) animals in a humane manner is a daily task for every vet in pratice. If you think you could not handle it, choose a different career
