Making the decision for pet euthanasia is one of the hardest choices you can make. After all, if you’ve owned your dog from puppyhood, they’ve been your companion for at least 10 years, maybe many more. You’ve played with them, trained them, fed, watered, and cared for them their whole life. Admit it - they’re a major part of your family, and you just don’t want them to leave you.
But…you’ve seen signs that tell you their time is almost over.
They don’t come when you call; they’re not hearing so well these days.
They’re bumping into things they used to easily avoid; their eyes are glossing over, and their eyesight isn’t as good as it once was.
They don’t leap up to meet you at the door; it’s more likely an occasional tail thump as you walk toward them.
These are just a few telltale signs that your best friend isn’t as young as they once were.
