Frequently Asked Questions

Indications of pain can range from subtle to obvious. Signs may include changes in appetite, mobility, and grooming. Lack of interest in activities or vocalizing may also indicate pain. Increased heart rate, respiratory rate, and/or panting can also be observed. It is important to consult your veterinarian if you believe your pet may be experiencing pain or discomfort, especially if they are receiving medication for pain that you feel is not adequately controlling it.

Making the decision to say goodbye to a pet is incredibly challenging and often accompanied by feelings of guilt.

There is no exact formula to determine the precise timing for this decision. Consulting with your regular veterinarian is the first step, as they can evaluate your pet’s medical history, physical condition, quality of life, and prognosis.

While physical signs such as increased respiratory or heart rate, loss of appetite, decreased mobility, incontinence, and disinterest in usual activities can be indicators of pain or discomfort, pet owners often develop an intuitive sense of when it’s the right time for their pet and their family.

Two critical conditions that require immediate attention are when the pet refuses to drink water (indicating dehydration) or experiences difficulty breathing, especially open-mouthed breathing or heavy panting.

If you need guidance about making this important decision, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
