When Is It Time?

Knowing when it’s time to say goodbye can be one of the hardest decisions a pet owner has to make. Here are some signs that it might be time to consider pet at-home euthanasia:

  • Chronic pain that cannot be managed with medication
  • Difficulty standing or walking
  • Loss of appetite or inability to eat
  • Frequent vomiting or diarrhea
  • Trouble breathing
  • Withdrawal from family activities
  • Loss of interest in favourite activities

What to Expect During the Process

Our pet at-home euthanasia process is designed to be as peaceful and gentle as possible. Here’s what you can expect during a visit:

Initial Consultation

We begin with a phone consultation to discuss your pet’s health and the process. This is a time to ask any questions and address any concerns you may have.

Scheduling the Appointment

Once you decide to proceed, we will schedule a convenient time for the euthanasia. We will also discuss any specific wishes you have for the process.

The Day of the Appointment

Our veterinarian will arrive at your home at the scheduled time. We encourage you to create a comfortable space for your pet where they feel safe and secure.

The Procedure

The veterinarian will first administer a sedative to help your pet relax and fall asleep peacefully. Once your pet is fully relaxed, the euthanasia solution will be given, and your pet will pass away gently and painlessly.
