Hospice Care Consultations

Pets are family members. We know how hard it can be for our pets and their families as age and disease related changes begin to make it more difficult for our loving pets to feel comfortable on a daily basis. One of the most important things we do as veterinary professionals is help each pet face their unique end of life challenges so that what time they have left to share with their families is lived in comfort and with dignity.

As pet owners ourselves, we understand how difficult it is to know whether a pet is suffering because of the challenges they face or if there is more that should be considered to ensure they have a high quality of life up until the very end. Please consider a consultation with one of our doctors if you notice that your geriatric pet is showing any of the following signs: vomiting, diarrhea, weight loss, difficulty rising, difficulty getting comfortable when laying down, lameness, perceived cognitive changes or decreased energy.
