Questions I am commonly asked as a local Veterinarian who’s specialty is In-Home Euthanasia…
🐾 My dog doesn’t appear to be in pain. He’s not crying, he’s not yelping.
🌈 as dogs become older, they become more stoic. Their Job is to protect you. They are not going to let you see them in pain. If they are having difficulty standing up, they Are in pain. That’s not a question; it’s a statement.
If they are no longer running, and they have some difficulty walking, they Are in pain.
Your beloved pet has been by your side and has protected you their entire life. They are now trusting you to take care of them, and to help stop their pain.
Deciding when it’s your dog’s time, Is incredibly emotional and difficult decision. Please look at your dog’s quality of life. Do you think they have a good quality of life the way they are right now? Not six months ago, but now? They are always going to wag their tail when they see you, that’s their Job. They will always try and greet you. That’s their Job, but does that indicate they have a good quality of life?
I help your pet to peacefully cross over the rainbow bridge with kindness and compassion in the comfort of your home surrounded by loved ones.🐾🌈
Warm Regards,
