We love our pets. The thought of them leaving us someday is sad. Unfortunately, there comes a time when we can do nothing else but let them go through pet euthanasia. When this happens, your child will likely find it difficult to let go.
At Dr 4 Pets, we understand that deciding to euthanize your pet is not an easy choice. It is one of the hardest decisions one can ever make. We offer euthanasia services in the comfort of your home to provide you with convenience during the final moments of your pet’s life. We serve the communities of Porter Ranch, Canoga Park, and Thousand Oaks, CA.
Deciding to euthanize your pet is not an easy decision. Let your child have their last moments with the pet, and say goodbye. Ensure that your child is aware that the life of your pet is about to come to an end, and they won’t see it again.
When a pet dies in the child’s absence, be honest with your child and let them know exactly what has happened. Don’t fall into the trap of coming up with lies like the pet has gotten lost and might come back home someday. If you do that, you will likely encounter frequent questions about why your pet has not returned home.
Bring your child, other family members, and friends together and discuss all of the fond memories you had with the pet. Let your child express their grief in whatever way they find suitable. You can even plan something like a memorial service to honor your pet.
At Dr 4 Pets, we are committed to making the last days of your pets’ life memorable and comfortable. We approach every case uniquely. That is why we will customize the procedure to meet your specific needs. We serve the areas of Porter Ranch, Canoga Park, and Thousand Oaks, CA. Call us today at (805) 494-3339 to schedule a consultation with our veterinarian, Dr. Lorraine Watson.
