A peaceful, dignified farewell from the comfort of home.

There's one moment we all must face when owning a pet: when your animal friend can no longer find joy or comfort in life; the very act of expressing love can be the most heart-breaking. You or your pet should not have to face this in an intimidating setting or a frantic vet's office with a long drive in the car to get there, nor during a hectic visit with the hustle and bustle of other animals and owners at the surgery.

At BlueWolf Vet, we know all animals love to spend their last few moments where they feel most comfortable, and that place is often at home. Our mobile pet euthanasia service, which covers the Peterborough area is built on the foundation of offering a gentle and unhurried final journey.

Is It Time?—Assessing your pet's quality of life.

One of the questions we get most often from pet owners in Peterborough is, "How do I know if it's too early or too late?".
Of course, there is no quick solution and letting go of an animal we love is a devastating experience. At the Blue Wolf Vet, we utilize a clinical tool in the form of the HHHHHMM Quality of Life Scale. This scale attempts to guide you through an objective evaluation of your pet's day. HHHHHMM breaks this down into seven categories:

1. Hurt: Is their pain well managed with medication?.
2. Hunger: Are they still eating?.
3. Hydration: Are they hydrated?.
4. Hygiene: Are they keeping themselfs clean.
5. Happiness: Are they still engaging in their favorite things?.
6. Mobility: Are they able to move without pain?.
7. More Good days than bad: is the "sum it all up" metric.
If you are concerned that your pet's quality of life is declining but you're not sure what to do next, we provide home Quality of Life consultations to Peterborough residents. We come to your house, gently assess your pet's condition and discuss where they stand on this scale so you can make a decision that you can feel good about.

The BlueWolf difference: Why Consider Home Pet Euthanasia?

In traditional veterinary practices around Peterborough, which provide euthanasia facilities it's impossible to find the tranquil and private environment needed at this critical time.

No stressful transport: There is no need to lift a suffering dog into a car, nor a traumatized cat into a carrier.

A familiar setting: Your pet can die on its own bed, beneath its own tree in the garden, on your lap.

A private grief process: There is no need to pass through a public waiting room with other clients around. You have time and space to feel sad alone, and as you feel you need to.

Your other pets can be present: It can often be helpful for other household animals to be present in the room, as their behaviour can often indicate understanding that they are now separated from their companion. This may alleviate later anxiety.

As soon as you are ready, we administer the final injection, as your pet is already in a deep sleep all that happens is they quietly stop breathing. They just drift away peacefully.
