With advances in veterinary technology and an increase in owner expectations around 'gold standard' treatment for their pets, veterinary professionals are invited to discuss when treatment becomes excessive and unnecessary and how they can make sure that the best treatment for a medical condition is actually the best option for clients and the animals under our care.

听will see 趣夜app Senior Vice President Dr. Elizabeth Mullineaux join听Caroline Allen, Director听at听Pet Lighthouse,听to discuss听when vets should draw the line on treating an animal.听The session will be run in association with 趣夜app鈥櫶齝harity, the .听

The session comes as 趣夜app鈥檚 Voice of the Veterinary Profession survey statistics reveal that 61% of small animal vets have听encountered听owners requesting overtreatment for their pets,听as听a result of many factors including humanisation of companion animals.

It鈥檚听just one of the thought-provoking debates running in the听趣夜app听Interactive Zone during 趣夜app Live next month, where delegates joins guest speakers to discuss ethical dilemmas, contentious issues and the topics that currently matter the most to the veterinary profession.听

British听Veterinary Association Senior Vice President Dr. Elizabeth Mullineaux said:听

鈥淎dvances听in technology mean that we听can do so many amazing things in veterinary medicine now, but the CMA investigation has spotlighted the increasing tension between the desire of owners for these types of interventions versus听the听realities听of听the听cost听and听potential听animal welfare听harms.听While听for some owners and animals,听advanced听treatments听can result in positive outcomes,听there听can听also听be听significant risks for both. Join us at 趣夜app Live to听discuss听how听we can听ensure听treatment is proportionate and necessary for the animals under our care and how we can judge when enough is enough.鈥澨�听
