We purchased a copy of Facing Farewell for each of our exam rooms. Our clients were so interested in the book's information and worksheets that they wanted to take the copies home. We now keep copies of Facing Farewell on hand to sell to clients. They feel more confident making decisions for their pet and appreciate the worksheets to help assess their pet's level of pain and quality of life.

Dr. Reck takes on a very difficult subject with great compassion and professionalism. Her insight in explaining the difference between the human perception of pain and death and our pets is very helpful. We animals lovers can often times project our feelings on to our beloved pet without realizing they cannot reason the way we do and the end result is often times needless suffering. Her book puts the decision making process into the proper perspective and helps us to make the right choices on their behalf. Her charts and explanation of the process are very informative. This book will be one that I personally intend to share with all my fellow pet loving friends. Thank You Dr. Reck.

This book is essentially about the need to know the criteria in deciding when the time is right to let your sick, injured, ailing, or older pet to have relief through euthanasia. There are several worksheets with questions to ask in the decision making. There are extra copies of these worksheets so you can check your pet over a period of time. These can be helpful while working along with the veterinarian to ease your pet toward its final rest.

Dr Julie Reck has established her "Home Farewell" as a service to do home euthanasia so both the beloved pet and its owner(s) can have a graceful and loving togetherness at this heartbreaking time.
