None of us like to think about this but we all know, the day will come (hopefully later than sooner). Some of the hardest decisions I’ve had to make in my life is not letting the love for my Goldens get in the way of what’s best for them. 🐾 💜

There’s something we use in vet med called a quality of life scale.

It’s not about giving up. It’s about making sure they’re still living, not just existing. You need to use your best judgment and guide the clients to the right choice. This is how they come to be at peace with their decision: you walk them through it.

Ask these 5 things about your pet or your client's pet:

1. Are they eating and drinking normally?
(or only because you’re pushing it)
2. Can they get up, walk, and move without struggling?
3. Are they still interested in things they used to love?
(toys, food, people, going outside)
****4. Are they having more good days than bad days?*****
5. Do they seem comfortable… or are they in pain more often than not?

If you’re answering “no” to most of these…
it might be time to have a conversation with your vet.

Not because you’re giving up.
Because you’re advocating for them.

And that’s the hardest, most loving part of being their person.

This is one of the hardest decisions anyone ever has to make. You can help:
