Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

At a very young age I developed a fascination with animals through drawing. This quickly evolved into my passion for animals and the reason of choosing the career path of becoming a veterinarian. My past experiences have led me to work with a wide variety of species ranging from biomedical primates to small and large animals. Through practicing I have found that quality medicine and care along with quality time spent with owners and pets is imperative to my values as a practitioner. In-home euthanasia allows me to embody these facets and provide optimal care to my patients in the comfort of their own home.

Dr. Briell was amazing. Our experience with her delicate care was as important to our human family, as it was for our beloved dog, Brutus. She facilitated a serene, meaningful experience. She was a true guide to help our friend over the bridge and for us to say goodbye.

Dr Briell Dzierga with Coda Pet has handled 2 seperate euthanasia events of our Abyssinian Cats. Our first experience with Dr Dzierga was exceptionally compassionate and caring for both our beloved male Abby suffering from cancer. Most recently our Female Abby experienced stage 4 kidney failure as was in very bad shape. Dr Dzierga scheduled with us for a second time since we were sold on her approach, compassionate manner, and Vet skills overall. She explains the process in detail and uses a three step process allowing you time to be with your pet, best for the Pet and Yourself. We are convinced that our Abby’s experienced the minimum stress and the maximum love possible. I commend Dr. Dzierga for her professionalism and Compassion for the animal as well as the pet owner. We were a wreck emotionally and she helped us through the process. Dr. Dzierga is a “10” in our experience and anyone considering home Euthanasia should seriously consider the process superior to at Vet office in EVERY WAY, and Dr. Dzierga for attending to your beloved pet.

When we found out that our dog Hercules was diagnosed with Lymphoma and given only weeks to live, we were devastated! He was only 4 years old and was such a good dog. I was terrified of the idea of euthanizing my baby. I couldn't imagine that my dog's last moment was going to be at the Vet's office. A friend of mine told me about in-home pet euthanasia and explained every detail of their experience. Although our hearts were torn, we decided that not only was it the best service for our family, but it was also the best for Hercules. Everything was explained so well, step by step, in a manner in which our children were comfortable with saying goodbye to their friend at home. Each last moment that was spent with him was filled with sadness, joy, and hope. We were honored to be there for him as he transitioned. Although we were sad to let him go, we were happy that he met a peaceful and dignified end. We decided to have Herculese cremated and brought back home. I received a beautiful urn and my fur baby will be at home with me forever. I highly recommend Dr Briell Dzierga at CodaPet!

My dear sweet 15 year old ginger girl made me smile every single day. So when she became ill, I had to make a tough choice. Dr. Dzierga arrived on the evening of our appointment. She was very compassionate. Informing me of the whole process, step by step. There was no rush, I was able to tell her all about my lovely girl and felt assured, by our conversation, that it was indeed the right time to let my sweet cat go. It was one of the hardest decisions I've ever made. The ability to have it done in my home, allowed my girl to go peacefully, without any added stress of being couped up in a carrier and driven to the vet. There was no fear added to the mix. She was home, on my lap, getting all the love as she drifted off. She was ready, even though my heart wasn't...

Dr Briell is a wonderful vet who was kind, considerate and extremely thoughtful. She understands what a pet means to a family. She allowed our family private time to say goodbye and helped us keep our composure during the process. Dr Briell explained step by step the procedure she was about to perform and ensured us Willie would suffer no pain. She kept her word and Willie passed very peacefully. Out of her kindness she gave us Willie's paw prints and later a beautiful card was mailed to us. Dr Briell is a very caring and special person. She gets a very high recommendation from us.
