In the first step, the doctor will talk to the owner to understand the pet's condition and the owner's wishes. The owner can accompany the pet to the hospital and decide whether to be present or not.

In the second step, the doctor will conduct a physical examination to ensure the health of the pet and determine whether it is suitable for euthanasia.
