Welcome back to Sit, Paws and Listen, hosted by Will Hodgetts
In this episode, Will is joined by Jennie Johnson, MBE, founder of Vets at Home, for an honest and important conversation about one of the hardest parts of being a pet owner: saying goodbye.
Pet euthanasia is a subject many of us avoid until we’re faced with it. But what if talking about it earlier could help us make better decisions for our pets, reduce the pressure of a crisis, and bring a little more comfort to an incredibly difficult time?
Jennie explains why the idea that you’ll simply “know when it’s time” can be unhelpful, why quality of life needs to be considered over time, and how planning ahead can help families navigate the emotional and practical challenges of end of life care.
From understanding your pet’s changing needs to exploring the benefits of home euthanasia, this conversation challenges the taboo around pet death and reminds us that making the kindest decision is an act of love, even when it hurts.
