A dog still this deep under anesthesia has no business being outside the oversight of a veterinary clinic. The video is misleading. But also incredibly sad in what it purports to show without an explanation that the dog was okay or showing the dog get up. I feel intensely manipulated but also angry at the deception. But even more so that a dog this deeply anesthetized was sent home. And if the dog is truly 18 that the owner was sent home with it this deep in the plane of anesthesia tells me something even worse about the ethics of that veterinary clinic. And, yes, I am in a position to know standard of care for anesthesia--in both animals and humans. Simply disgraceful
