Emily Piche (Registered Veterinary Technician):
My first love was a blonde Chihuahua named "Honey Baby" She was given to me as a puppy shortly after my parents split and we quickly became the best of friends. One summer my mom had a basket mounted to the front of my bicycle so that i could take Honey on my adventures. She loved that basket and I brought her with me everywhere. She was my most trusted and faithful childhood friend.
As Honey grew older she developed heath issues that would require regular trips to the Vet. Although the staff were friendly and compassionate, Honey dreaded her visits to the clinic and would tremble and snap at the staff members. When the hard decision was made that it was time to euthanize, I couldn't bear to see the stress Honey would face on her last day. I told my mom I couldn't go and said goodbye from the front door. A know now that what Honey needed was a home euthanasia.
