If You Have Dogs, This Might Concern You

Senior Canines

The pleasure of owning a dog makes the inevitable bereavement of losing them in old age very agonizing. When your senior dog starts to deteriorate and veterinary care is no longer helpful, you should be aware that end-of-life decisions are coming. After vigorous therapies will only make pain worse, put your attention on comfort and quality of life.

When the time comes for a compassionate, gentle death, locate trustworthy in-home euthanasia services. Recognize when your pet is ready—difficulty eating, moving, or using the restroom indicates the last stage. Before saying goodbye, cherish your last days together in order to manage your own pain. When a cherished companion approaches the end of his life, each day is a gift. Give him every comfort you can, then let go.
