Dignified end of life care
Let us join you on your grief journey. Your pet has enriched your life immensely , and how we deal with the end of life of our loved one testifies to the intensity of our bonds. At the time of separation we understand this priority for pet parents. We can support you and your pet gently with all the respect we owe them.

After death
Respect the body of your deceased pet as part of honoring its life and what it meant to us.
Caring for your elderly pet
Elderly life care maintains the bond between animals and their families by placing emphasis on the physical and psychological well-being.
We will consider with you:
Thanks to a complete clinical examination followed by an interview to find out about your animal’s lifestyle habits, its pathologies, its needs and yours, we will be able to establish an assessment of one’s physical, social and emotional well-being
a care and follow-up protocol, including pain management.
The specific nutritional intake of an aging or end-of-life animal, coupled with a sometimes more capricious appetite and gastrointestinal disorders, leads to significant difficulties when it comes to feeding. We offer nutrition consultations adapted to senior animals.
Discussing when to say goodbye to your pet represents the most delicate conversation a vet clinic will have in our interactions with families. Talking about death is a skill that requires empathy, open-mindedness, non-judgment and compassion.
How do you know it’s time?
When an animal experiences persistent suffering despite the care and treatment provided, loses its joy of living and its quality of life is greatly impaired, it may be time to consider euthanasia. Being supported by the expertise of a veterinarian in this crucial choice can be of great support.
Tools, particularly for assessing pain and quality of life, exist. Used with the help of a professional, they can prove essential in facilitating ethical choices and making informed decisions before euthanasia.
The decision to euthanize is a joint decision with the veterinarian. This end-of-life decision-making support service includes one or more telephone or video exchanges which can be offered throughout Ireland.In our area, we can also do them in your home.
Why collaborate with us?
Collaborating with us can provide valuable benefits to the animals you follow and their owners.
Support for the entire family is essential when the animal is experiencing its last moments, from caring for the animal to emotional and educational support.
However, a lot of veterinary teams in structures may lack resources and time for end-of-life care, emotional support and extended home visits.
Collaborating with us allows your families to benefit from personalized and attentive care, a gesture for which they will always be grateful.
