Some conversations in the animal world are difficult, emotional, and often misunderstood.
Join us for a free community education class on Behavioral Euthanasia: Ethical Decision-Making in Behavior Cases.
This class will explore what behavioral euthanasia is, why it may be considered in some cases, quality-of-life concerns for both pets and caregivers, common myths and misconceptions, rehoming considerations, and the ethical questions that can arise when managing serious behavioral challenges.
Our goal is not to tell anyone what decision to make. Instead, we hope to provide education, context, and a compassionate, judgment-free space to discuss a topic that many people struggle to talk about openly.
This seminar is ideal for trainers, veterinary professionals, shelter and rescue staff, fosters, volunteers, pet owners facing difficult behavioral decisions, and anyone interested in gaining a better understanding of behavioral euthanasia.
📅 Friday, June 12th
⏰ 6:00 p.m. (please arrive 15 minutes early)
📍 Community Room at ICACS (600 Buhl St., Mason, MI)
⚠️ This class is intended for adults and includes discussion of aggression, safety concerns, caregiver burnout, grief, and end-of-life decisions.
Spots are limited and registration is required.
You do not need to have adopted from our shelter to attend.
