Deciding when to put a pet down is a very personal decision that should be made between you and your veterinarian. Everyone wishes that their elderly or sick pet will pass peacefully in their sleep, but unfortunately that doesn’t always happen. When this process doesn’t happen naturally and your pet is suffering, we suggest that you consider pet euthanasia. Pet euthanasia is a humane and gentle way to help a pet pass on from this life.
If you are faced with making this decision, then here are a few questions you can ask yourself:
- Is there are a treatment plan that I can afford and stick to that will help my pet recover?
- How is my pet’s quality of life? Are they in pain? Are they able to eat, drink, and use the bathroom?
- Does my pet have more good days than bad?
If you choose pet euthanasia, our team at Yadkin Valley Pet Funeral Services can help. We understand how difficult of a decision this is. If you would like to talk to someone about this process, please give us a call today.
