We’re excited to share that PNWVC 2026 is featuring a dedicated End of Life Care series on Saturday, September 26 as part of the Small Animal track. The series features Sydney Dahl from Evvi Aftercare and Resting Waters, Mollyrose Dumm from Urban Animal, and Dr. Jess McAfee from Peaceful Pet Transitions and Dr. Sonja Olson of Heartstorming Wellness .
Throughout the day, the speakers will explore topics across the end-of-life journey, including:
•Navigating euthanasia and difficult decision-making
•Client grief, communication, and support
•Veterinary team wellbeing, compassion fatigue, and moral distress
•Aftercare, body disposition, and memorialization
We’re thrilled for our very own Sydney Dahl to present the CE course “Beyond Euthanasia: Understanding Aftercare, Body Disposition, and Memorialization,” a practical look at what happens after euthanasia and how veterinary teams can better support families through aftercare.
We’d love to see you and your team there!
