Summary

In this episode of In The Vet's Office, Dr. Josie is joined by Lap of Love co-founder, Dr. Mary Gardner. Dr. Josie and Dr. Mary discuss what owners can expect when taking care of pets with a terminal illness. And how our senior pets deserve the same quality of care as our young ones. Dr. Mary and Dr. Josie weigh the pros and cons of focusing on keeping our pets comfortable versus pursuing treatment with our sick pets. They then dive into all the different ways that we can assess quality of life and determine when it's the right time to euthanize. They explain what owners can expect during the euthanasia appointment. Lastly, they discuss different resources and support groups for owners that are grieving the loss of a pet.
