This week, we remember sweet Cairo, who crossed the rainbow bridge on August 19, 2025
___________________________

Cairo watched kids grow up and moved houses and places with us but now I only see his beady eyes fixed on me. From a small lanky puppy, through years of go go go to mellow sunset evenings. He was the best dog I could have wished for

In this episode of Java with Jeanette The Vet, Dr. Yamamoto shares a story that is still so raw and personal. Even as a veterinarian, she is a pet parent facing the heartbreak of knowing when it’s time. 💙

Last week, she had to say goodbye to her 19-year-old cat, Boxsie. He was still eating, still enjoying some family interactions — but his body was failing him. Making the decision was incredibly difficult, and she speaks openly about the emotions, the love, and the sense of responsibility that came with it. In the end, letting him go peacefully at home was the kindest gift she could give.

Quality of life isn’t always clear-cut. These choices are never easy — even for veterinarians. You’re not alone. 🐾

On this Memorial Monday, we remember a kitty close to our own hearts - Dr Yamamoto’s sweet Boxsie, who crossed the rainbow bridge on August 26, 2025
___________________________

Today we said goodbye to one of the sweetest kitties in the world…Boxsie
About 18 years ago, he and his littermate were brought into my emergency clinic by Animal control as stray kittens. I noticed straight away that he had deformed front limbs, and I told the animal control officer that it was very unlikely that someone would adopt him, though he was fine otherwise. I mentioned to her that I would reach back out to the shelter when he was up for adoption to see if he was still available so I could ensure he had a home. Sure enough… no one adopted this cute little deformed guy, and we brought him home. We tried a number of different splints to correct his front limb deformities, but he just wasn’t having it and we let him be. He was a very nervous kitty through the first eight years of his life, especially with our young kids in the house that moved way too quick for his liking. Eventually, he grew to love us and the kids, knowing that we were walking treat dispensers. He has brought so much joy to our lives and turned out to be the sweetest, kindest kitty. He was so amazing with the dogs and had such a kind soul. We will miss his constant yelling for treats, but I am so glad he is no longer struggling with his body. Thanks for making us your family, our sweet little Boxsie aka Crip.

❤️ The Yamamoto Family

On this Memorial Monday, we remember sweet Clyde, who crossed the rainbow bridge on August 4, 2025
___________________________

My Clyde, I was the first person you saw when you opened your eyes, and the last person you saw when you left this world. You came into our lives 15 years ago, only days old. I bottle fed you and your siblings, you always having to be the first to be fed, until you all grew healthy and strong. You always had so much to say, up until your last days. We were always laughing at you quirky and funny antics. Like the time you got yourself wedged, standing up and paws above your head, between the wall and the back of the fridge. You had me and grandma frantic looking everywhere for you. Your obsession with licking walls, bags, lizard tanks, dogs, and us! I'm going to miss that. My heart is heavy with sorrow and the house is just a little bit more quiet without you. Until we meet again my Clyde Frog. I will always love you.

❤️ The Dorowsky Family

The Last Battle – Pet Loss Poem

If it should be that I grow frail and weak
And pain should keep me from my sleep,
Then will you do what must be done,
For this — the last battle — can’t be won.
You will be sad I understand,
But don’t let grief then stay your hand,
For on this day, more than the rest,
Your love and friendship must stand the test.
We have had so many happy years,
You wouldn’t want me to suffer so.
When the time comes, please, let me go.
Take me to where to my needs they’ll tend,
Only, stay with me till the end
And hold me firm and speak to me
Until my eyes no longer see.
I know in time you will agree
It is a kindness you do to me.
Although my tail its last has waved,
From pain and suffering I have been saved.
Don’t grieve that it must be you
Who has to decide this thing to do;
We’ve been so close — we two — these years,
Don’t let your heart hold any tears.

Why your senior dog might be avoiding the dog door — and what you can do about it

We see this a lot with older dogs — the dog door they’ve used their whole life suddenly becomes a problem. They pause in front of it. They turn away. Sometimes they have accidents inside, even though they still want to go out.

It’s not confusion.
It’s the step.

Most dog doors sit 6 to 10 inches off the ground. That’s not a big deal when your dog is young and agile. But with arthritis, weakness, or loss of coordination, lifting a leg that high can be painful — or just not possible anymore.

A lot of families try to help by adding a step on each side of the door. And that can work — but only if the flap is tall enough. When you raise the dog up, you’re also shrinking the amount of headroom they have to get through the flap. If the opening is too short, they end up needing to duck — and older dogs don’t duck well. They get stuck, or lose confidence, or just stop trying.

So here’s what to look for:
-Keep the step-over height low — ideally around 2 to 4 inches.
-Make sure the top of the flap is still at least an inch above your dog’s shoulders, even after adding the step.
There are dog doors out there designed specifically for this — with tall, narrow flaps that allow you to install them low without forcing your dog to crouch to get through.

One of our techs switched to a taller flap door for her two large dogs — one older and stiff, the other with bad knees — and it’s made a huge difference. They’re able to move freely again, without needing help, without hesitation.

Small changes like this can make a big impact for aging dogs.
Not just physically — emotionally, too.

We talk a lot about comfort and mobility at the end of life. But that starts long before the final days. It starts with things like this — making sure the backyard is still an option. That they can still choose sunshine. That they’re not stuck inside because of a few inches of plastic and metal.

💛 Sometimes a new flap is more than just a door.

A Note About Our Schedule

We don’t often talk about the why behind our schedule, but we wanted to share a little insight.

In-home euthanasia is profoundly meaningful work. It’s also emotionally heavy. Being fully present with families during some of the most tender and difficult moments requires a kind of energy that can’t be sustained across long hours or six-day weeks.

While we understand that being available every day or in the evenings might be more convenient for some families, being available that often would be incredibly emotionally taxing. We’ve learned that setting healthy limits around hours isn’t about doing less—it’s about making sure that when we are with you, we’re fully present, grounded, and able to offer the care your pet deserves.

We’re so grateful that more veterinarians are now offering in-home support in the Santa Clarita area. As both the veterinary and pet-loving communities continue to recognize the value of peaceful, home-based euthanasia, it means more pets can be helped—and no one has to face it alone.

We do this work because we believe in it. And we’ve shaped our schedule not to limit the care we give—but to make it sustainable, so we can keep showing up with full hearts, for as long as we’re needed. 💛

🎇 Why Are Fireworks So Scary for Pets? 🐾

We get this question every year—so let’s break it down.

For most pets, fireworks aren’t just “loud.” They’re sudden, unpredictable, and completely confusing.

🔊 Super sensitive hearing
Your dog or cat hears far more than you do. What sounds like a pop to us can feel like an explosion to them.

⚡ No warning signs
Pets don’t get a countdown. Fireworks happen out of nowhere, and their instincts say: this is danger—run or hide.

🧠 Past experiences (or lack of them)
If a pet’s had a scary reaction before, their brain remembers. Even pets with no bad history can still panic the first time they hear that boom.

🐾 It’s a survival response
Shaking, hiding, pacing, barking—these aren’t bad behaviors. They’re stress responses. Their bodies are doing what they think they need to do to stay safe.

🎯 What helps?

🐶 A quiet, cozy space indoors
🎵 White noise, soft music, or the TV
🆔 Updated tags & microchips, just in case
💊 And for some pets, calming meds or supplements can really make a difference

If your pet struggles with loud noises, you're not alone. Reach out to your vet—they're here to help you make a plan so everyone can have a safer, less stressful Fourth of July. ❤️

On this Memorial Monday, we remember sweet Gunner, who crossed the rainbow bridge on May 19, 2025
___________________________

Gunner came into our lives when he was about 8 weeks old. We weren't sure what we were getting ourselves into, but we quickly learned. He was very energetic and constantly active. He wanted constant attention and the breeds nickname "Velcro dogs" proved to be very true. He was the most loving, smart, gentle and loyal dog ever. We loved him from the moment we met him until the day he passed on at age 13. Dr. Yamamoto and Sunnie came to our house and with the most professional and caring way, they helped him and us with his passing. We miss him dearly.

❤️ The Veiga Family
