EUTHANASIA AND CREMATION SERVICESJust as we all age, so do our beloved pets. As much as we would love for all our pets to be in our lives forever, there comes a time to say goodbye. Euthanasia offers a peaceful, controlled option for the end of our pet's life. Based on your pet's quality of life, euthanasia may be something to consider.
Knowing when the time is right can be a difficult choice. There are many factors that go into deciding to euthanize an animal, and it is a personal issue that differs from pet owner to pet owner. Your top concern should be about your pet’s quality of life, difficulties that come with old age and the pain they may be suffering. |
Our euthanasia process is designed to be as peaceful as possible. Once you and the doctor have determined that this is the best choice, your pet will have a drug administered that results in deep sedation. During the time it takes to reach this state, you and your family remain with your pet. It is a quiet few minutes of saying good-bye. Many people choose to leave at this point, having bid their pet farewell, taking comfort in knowing it was calm and pain-free.
Our veterinarians are available to discuss your options. They are very familiar with the experience and can talk about the process and the feelings that come with it. Please make an appointment or contact us for information on options, timelines, and references to support through the grieving process.
Cremation can be a wonderful and flexible way to celebrate and memorialize the life of an animal. Cremated remains can be buried, kept in an indoor or outdoor urn, or commemorated in jewelry or keepsake items. We contract with Lasting Paws Pet Memorial Services for all our cremation needs. They are a locally owned business that has offered reliable, caring services for our community for over 25 years. Please ask for details about the wide variety of products and services they offer.
