We recently came across a moving moment on Live with Kelly & Mark, where Kelly Ripa shared the deep bond she had with her senior pet. Her emotions reminded us how precious the time with our beloved pets truly is—and how it never feels like enough, no matter how many years we share with them. 💚
When our pets enter their golden years, we face the bittersweet responsibility of making decisions about their well-being, including end-of-life choices. 🌈These decisions are never easy, but they’re acts of love—ensuring they feel safe, cherished, and at peace.
Helping Hands Pet Hospice is here to support you during these tender moments, providing guidance and compassionate care for your pet’s final chapter.

The holidays can be a season of joy, but for many veterinary professionals, it’s also a time of emotional strain due to an increase in pet euthanasias. 🕯️💚
From colder weather affecting senior pets to holiday stress on both pets and their humans, this time of year can bring unforeseen challenges. The good news is we can work together to navigate these tough moments:
🐾 Be Kind: Everyone on a pet’s care team is doing their best. Patience and understanding go a long way—for grieving families and the professionals supporting them.
🐾 Consider In-Home Euthanasia: Saying goodbye at home can be less stressful for pets and their families.
🐾 Plan Ahead: Open conversations about your pet’s health can prevent unnecessary suffering and ensure a peaceful goodbye.
🐾 Manage Pain Properly: If your pet is in pain, trust your veterinarian’s recommendations. Pain management makes a big difference.

🐾 This time of year Helping Hands Pet Hospice gets lots of questions from concerned clients wanting to know how to get their pets through the holidays. Sick and elderly pets have no idea that schedules are about to change but their bodies will know.
The stress can affect their health, seemingly overnight. Visitors, decorations, gatherings, and all the commotion can be hard on everyone 🐾
Consider these tips from the and the Helping Hands Pet Hospice team to help navigate the season with your furry friends:
1️⃣ Don’t fear discussing euthanasia if your pet is struggling. It’s not about convenience; it’s about compassion. 💚
2️⃣ If you aim to get your pet through the holidays, talk to your vet about medications and comfort measures. Have a backup plan in case things get tough. 🩹
3️⃣ Plan ahead for home euthanasia if needed. 🏡
4️⃣ Leaving your pet? Ensure caregivers have all they need, know decision-making details, and discuss euthanasia options in advance. 💼
5️⃣ If you can’t be there, consider a video chat during euthanasia to be present and comfort your pet. 📱🌈
6️⃣ Remember, if things don’t go as planned, forgive yourself. Your pet would understand. 🙏
Wishing you a peaceful holiday season ahead, filled with love and joy! 💚🐾

It’s been about one year since we introduced Librela, a once-monthly monoclonal antibody therapy for dogs, and we’re thrilled to share Frieda’s progress! Our Quality Control Wiener, who once struggled with paralysis and chronic back pain, now enjoys reaching for her toys and playing regularly. 💚
While every pet’s journey is unique, we’ve seen how this therapy can make a difference in improving quality of life. We’re proud to continue offering Librela injections to our palliative care patients.
If your pet is experiencing pain, reach out to Helping Hands Pet Hospice to schedule a consultation. 🌈
