AT
HOME EUTHANASIA
We consider at-home euthanasia one of the most important
services we offer. The final moments of your pet’s life
can be spent in its most familiar and secure environment.
You can be in a space that allows you to experience the ending
of this important life in privacy. We can personalize the process
to meet your needs rather than through a standard process of a
veterinary hospital.
Because it is such a sad time, we will want to review with you
ahead of time about your preferences.
You will need to decide whether you wish to be present during
the entire procedure. Some people prefer to say good-bye alone
and then not be there for the treatment. Others wish to be present
from beginning to end. The choice is entirely yours.
The process involves the sedation of your pet, as needed, and
then an intravenous injection which results in your pet going
to sleep peacefully, painlessly and not waking up.
You can decide where this takes place and who is present.
Afterwards
You will need to decide whether you want your pet’s body
left with you for burial. In which case we can provide a burial
bag. Or you may decide you want your pet cremated. There are two
types of cremation. A private cremation where the ashes are returned
to you or a group cremation, where they aren’t.
If you choose a private cremation, your pet’s ashes will
be returned to you in a metal urn with a certificate of individual
cremation. Other urn choices are available.
