Making Difficult Decisions

Making difficult decisions regarding hospice care involves ensuring pets maintain a high quality of life for as long as possible. Our experienced doctors provide empathetic guidance to pet owners, addressing quality of life considerations sensitively. We understand these decisions are emotionally challenging, and our goal is to offer options that align with your wishes and your pet's well-being.

Factors considered in assessing quality of life include appetite, nausea management, mobility, interest in activities, alertness, and effective pain management through adjustments or medical intervention.

For euthanasia, we have created a tranquil, comfortable room within our hospital where families can bid farewell to their beloved pets. Additionally, we offer the option of scheduling at-home euthanasia for added convenience and privacy. Please contact us for more details on this service.

Our veterinarians are always available to discuss your options and provide compassionate guidance throughout this difficult time. We also offer grief support and access to professional counselors for those needing additional assistance coping with the loss of a beloved pet.

What to Expect

As pet owners ourselves, we understand the emotional trauma of euthanasia. We have designed our hospital with a quiet, comfortable room where owners and families can spend time with their pet to say goodbye. We also have the ability to schedule at-home euthanasia. Please contact us for more information about this service.

Our veterinarians are always available to discuss how to proceed in any situation and can provide guidance to you and your family throughout this very difficult time. Grief support and professional counselors are also available for those who may be having a particularly hard time and need additional help.
