"Information on euthanasia of dogs showed that XX dogs were euthanased due to ...."
Jag undrar hur detta ska uttryckas på svenska. Eutanasi av hundar? Eutanasi för hundar? På hundar? Och "eutaniserades" de, eller hur bör verbet böjas?

Explanation:

agree  Görel Bylund: Avlivning - det är den term som används för djur (eller slakt). Ordet eutanasi uppfattar jag som reserverat för människor,
