Euthanasia
Euthanasia is a quick and painless way of ending the suffering of a beloved pet.
It is an emotional time for everyone involved, including the vet, but your veterinary surgeon will help you decide when the time is right. If you are considering letting go of your pet you can ask yourself a number of questions to help you reach your decision:
Is your pet suffering in pain, distress or discomfort? Is he/she having difficulty walking or finding it difficult to eat and drink enough without vomiting? Does he/she have tumours which are causing pain or discomfort which are inoperable or untreatable? Is he/she finding is difficult to breath? Is he/she incontinent or having difficulty urinating or defecating? Are you unable to cope physically and emotionally with any nursing or medication that may be required?
If the answer to any of these questions is yes, then euthanasia may be the best option for your pet, call you vet and talk it over with them.
