End-of-Life Care
Watching your aging pet decline in health is never easy. As your animal companion faces deterioration or a loss in quality of life, we are here to support and guide you. We will assist you in making a plan addressing such issues as pain management, alternative therapies, diet, exercise, and environmental modifications for aging, ill, or suffering pets. Together, we will make decisions regarding types and lengths of treatment for your pet to preserve your pet’s comfort and dignity.
If the decision is made to euthanize, we offer a quiet space for your pet and you. Our services include taking care of the remains as you desire.
In addition, Ballston Animal Hospital provides support for you in dealing with loss and grief. Visit our Pet Loss and Grief Support section on the Pet Resources page to access recommended links.
