I'm so sorry to hear you're facing this difficult decision with Peach. It must be an incredibly tough time for you, and I'm here to offer whatever support and information I can.
When considering euthanasia, it's usually because a pet is experiencing a significant decline in quality of life due to illness or age-related issues. Common causes include chronic pain from arthritis, organ failure, or severe, untreatable conditions such as certain types of cancer.
If you've noticed signs like persistent pain, loss of interest in enjoyable activities, or trouble moving around, these can be indications that Peach isn't feeling her best. It's a compassionate decision to want to prevent further suffering.
Before the appointment, try to create a peaceful and comforting environment for Peach. Offer her favorite things—like a beloved toy or a tasty treat—to let her know she is loved. Being with her, speaking softly, and providing gentle petting can also bring her comfort.
Watch for significant distress signals such as uncontrolled vomiting, difficulty breathing, or extreme lethargy. If you see these signs, please reach out to a vet immediately.
It might be helpful to book a video consult through Dial A Vet, where you can discuss any last-minute concerns with a veterinarian who understands the emotional aspects of this decision. Please know you’re not alone in this, and we're here for you every step of the way.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
