Subject: Risks of Anesthesia?

Lost my Puffy yesterday, coming out of the anesthetic from having dental work, was moving and then stopped breathing. They couldn't resuscitate him.

I searched the archives here today looking for information.

I believe they did in fact use a gas anesthesia (not sure if it was Iso). They will be doing a necropsy today to see if they find anything.

What are the problems/risks with anesthesia and what can I do as an owner to prevent them?

Thanks for any helpful info,
Jessica B.
