End of Life Care
End of life decisions are some of the hardest pet owners have to make. We are honored to be able to care for your beloved pet through the final stages of their life, while guiding and supporting you through the process.
Humane Euthanasia
Humane euthanasia is a compassionate, medically guided process used to peacefully facilitate a pet’s passing when they are suffering from a terminal illness, severe pain, or a poor quality of life. It is considered when a pet’s health or quality of life has declined, and continued treatment would lead to prolonged suffering. Humane euthanasia prevents unnecessary pain and distress associated with a prolonged natural passing.
Our team will be with you every step of the way. We will provide details of the process and aftercare prior to the procedure, allowing you to be fully present with your pet as they cross the rainbow bridge. Each of our exam rooms allow for private exits so you do not have to pass through our main reception area after you say good bye to your beloved pet.

Final Gift
Once you have made the difficult decision to proceed with humane euthanasia the last difficult decision to be made is body aftercare for your family member. Our practice works with Final Gift for crematory services and memorial tokens. For more information and a detailed list of all services please (https://www.finalgift.com/) the Final Gift visit.
- All pets whose remains are not taken home with their family members are placed in the care of Final Gift’s Cremation Service.
- In communal cremation your pet is cremated with other pets and their ash remains will not be returned to you. Their ashes will be used to restore coral reefs damaged by climate change. More details on pet reefs can be found here (https://petreefs.com/our-process/)
- In private cremation your pet will be cremated individually and all ash remains are placed in a wooden urn and returned to you.
