A Peaceful Passing At Home
Pets are family. When the time comes to say your final goodbye, schedule a licensed vet to visit your home so your dog or cat is surrounded by the comfort of familiarity and love.
No one wants to say goodbye too soon or too late. A quality of life questionnaire and these six steps can help guide your decision.
Meet the licensed, in-home euthanasia vets in your area, read reviews from other pet parents, and choose the best fit for your dog or cat.
Reserve an appropriate appointment time, and complete a short pre-appointment questionnaire.
Your vet will contact you the morning of or the evening before your appointment to answer any questions you may have.
Your selected vet will arrive at the scheduled time, assess your beloved pet, and talk you through the process.
Depending on the AfterCare choice you make, your vet will coordinate the transportation and return of your pet’s ashes in an urn of your choosing.
What signs might you see if your dog is dying? How can you help them feel more comfortable throughout the process? These are difficult topics but important to consider when you have a terminally ill dog.
