SAYING GOODBYE AT HOME - Is this what you do?

As with every aspect of caring for pets, the decision you make should be right for you and your companion – don’t be swayed by other people telling you what’s ‘right’. In our experience, there are a number of considerations to bear in mind if you are thinking about saying goodbye to your pet at home when the time comes.

An interesting development by Cherry Tree who are breaking new ground with this. What do people think? A good alternative for anybody who perhaps can’t afford a home visit euthanasia but wants to avoid going to a busy vet surgery?

❌ A little sneak preview of our reception at cherry tree gentle farewells, (more photos coming soon) we are just a few weeks away from opening.
The support for this new service has been overwhelming not only from owners but also veterinary professionals.
As always here at cherry tree we not only want to help clients but we are passionate that we want to offer the very best service at our owners devastating time of loss.
As most of you are aware we are looking to redesign and redevelop the whole pet end of life service currently offered by many veterinary surgeries. No more busy waiting rooms with other pets waiting for appointments when you arrive or a fifteen minute appointment to loose a pet and say goodbye.
Gentle farewells will specialise in helping clients through the loss of their furry family members. Set in our lovely peaceful country surroundings with our own veterinary surgeon Dr Nicola Carrier in our purpose built facility that has non clinical homely consult rooms with comfortable seating, open aspect doors across our fields and the options of being outside in a private garden area on summer days, other family members and pets will also be welcome, we really want to redefine this sad time and give owners options and importantly as much time as necessary to help come to terms with their loss.
Home visits will continue to be available should you wish.
We are happy for any suggestions you have for these new premises.

HOW TO COPE WHEN PET LOSS GRIEF OVERWHELMS YOU

Within the worst moments of pet loss grief, it can be hard to imagine that you’ll ever function ‘normally’ again. You feel exhausted, stuck and overwhelmed. You can’t think clearly and sometimes wonder how you can go on as you’re in so much pain.

One of the most challenging things about grief of any kind is that it isn’t linear. The feeling of being overwhelmed can hit you like a crashing wave weeks, months or even years after your loss.

So, how can you cope when you’re overwhelmed and drowning in grief? We’ve put together some tips in the blog post below:

Dogs who wear muzzles are good dogs.
Dogs who aren’t dog friendly are good dogs.
Dogs who are lead reactive are good dogs.
Dogs who need space are good dogs.
Dogs who are scared of strangers are good dogs.

If you see someone clearly making steps to avoid you or your dog while you are out walking, please respect them.

If someone lets you know that their dog needs space or isn’t dog friendly, please respect them.

If you see someone clip their dog on lead when you approach, clip yours on too and give them space.

Some dogs don't want to interact with other dogs or people and that's fine. I'm sure you don't want to interact with everyone you see either! They still deserve to have a great quality of life and go everywhere yours gets to go as long as they are taking the right precautions.

Having a dog that needs space is a challenge all of its own, but we are doing our best to advocate for them to ensure they live the best lives we can give them. Training can't happen at all unless we take these dogs into public places. To everyone with friendly dogs, please don’t be offended and please don't judge. A nervous dog can happen to anyone at anytime. Instead of playing the blame game, let's all try make that dog's life more comfortable and its owners life much easier by being understanding 💛

Help at the end of a much loved pet’s life

I am a Veterinary Surgeon who qualified in 1982. I began my life in pet clinical practice in 1976, working as a volunteer in a local practice for a year before going to Vet School. Since graduating in 1982 I have worked continuously in small animal practices during which time I have helped at the end of countless pets’ lives. I have 38 years experience in performing euthanasia both in the clinic situation and in people’s own homes. Having sold my practice I now have time to offer much greater flexibility to provide calm unhurried end of life care in peoples’ homes. It has been my experience that many pet owners much prefer for their pet to be in the familiar surroundings of home for their last moments rather than suffer the anxiety of another visit to the clinic. Having left full time practice I am now able to offer appointments at a time to suit, including evenings and weekends. I will be working in collaboration with a colleague with the same length of experience in practice so that, with two experienced vets, we can offer extensive reliable cover. Both of us will be using the most modern techniques approved by the CAETA ( Companion Animal Euthanasia Training Academy ) and the American Veterinary Medical Association which involve use of sedation to relax the pet completely before euthanasia. In order to use this service you do not need to be registered already with me and I am not a veterinary practice as such. You will likely be registered with a vet already but it does not matter if you are not. Normally, if you want treatment from a different vet, it is necessary for the new vet to get all of the history first. However, end-of-life care is an exception because there will not be any diagnosis being made or treatment being administered. If you are at a point where you have significant doubts about the timing and there is ongoing treatment then there may be a need to get the history from your vet in order to advise.

I will not be providing any treatments or palliative care but simply calm compassionate end-of-life care. If you think that the time is right for your pet I can be contacted to talk about the him or her without any commitment on your part. We can talk about quality of life and answer any questions about the end-of-life process. With a lifetime in practice, and experience with my own pets, I know of the agonising that goes into making the awful decision. I can help give you reassurance that you are making the right decision and to make it as peaceful as possible.
