What is euthanasia like for pets?
Euthanasia is a humane way for pets to cross over the rainbow bridge. The euthanasia drug is administered via injection. First, it will cause your pet to fall into a peaceful sleep. Then, it will cause their organs to fail systematically. Pets feel no pain whatsoever and the process is complete within a matter of minutes.
How do I know when it is the right time to say goodbye to my pet?
The decision will always be up to you and your loved ones. During a one-on-one consultation, your veterinarian will explain to you all of the choices you have available, and if euthanasia is a viable course of action for your pet.
Some of the factors you can consider in your decision-making process are:

Can a pet wake up after or during euthanasia?
This is a common concern for loving pet owners. The truth is there is no danger of your pet waking up once the euthanasia drug has been admitted. Losing consciousness is one of the first effects of the medication.
