Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

I saw Veterinary Medicine as the perfect field for combining my love of medicine with agriculture. While in private practice, I realized I had great compassion and empathy for those facing end-of-life decisions with their beloved pets. Privileged to perform a handful of in-home euthanasias while in practice, I was excited to learn of CodaPet’s mission to provide a peaceful, dignified passing for pets in the comfort of their own homes. I see euthanasia as the final gift an owner can give their pet, and having experienced having to put her own animals down, I know that being able to do so in a calm, peaceful setting is of paramount importance. I am excited to be able to offer this service to those in the Clarksville and surrounding areas.

Dr. Thompson was compassionate, thoughtful, and so gentle with our Huckleberry. She provided such comfort to our family during the visit. We are so very grateful that it was Dr. Thompson that laid our sweet Huck to rest.

Dr. Thompson was so kind and caring. As difficult as it was to let our Golden fella cross the Rainbow Bridge, she reminded us that we were doing the best thing for him. Dr. Thompson made our in-house euthanasia experience as pleasant as it could possibly be. So thankful we got to say our 'see ya later's' to our dog in our home, in his favorite spot. Thank you, Dr. Thompson-

Review by Dr. Kristi Thompson

I can’t say enough good things about Dr Kristi Thompson’s kindness and compassion both before, during, and after this process. 10/10 would recommend. She thoroughly and professionally explained the process. She listened carefully to the long list of ailments our senior dog was experiencing. She then examined our dog and explained what was potentially treatable, and what the prognosis was. This allowed us the chance to make a fully informed decision before proceeding. I appreciated that, especially since it was a lethal one for a very loved family member. We never felt rushed or pressured one way or the other. I just wish there were people doctors who were as attentive, kind, compassionate, and laid out the various options to their patients.

Dr Kristi Thompson is a very caring and skilled veterinarian. She petted and soothed our sweet Dixie, and explained everything she was going to do. She gave us time and space to be with Dixie, and love on her so she could pass in peace. It’s so hard to say goodbye to our sweet girl, but Dr Thompson really made it as gentle and easy as it could be for Dixie. I highly recommend her for IN-HOME Pet Euthanasia. I would definitely use her again, to give my pet a peaceful, comfortable in-home passing. Diane Kolaski -Clarksville, TN

Dr. Thompson made a very difficult situation easier than I ever thought possible. She clearly cares about the animal and the human involved :-) So thankful I found her and was able to allow my precious Fischer to pass peacefully in our home.

Dr. Thompson was compassionate, professional, and lead us through the process to say goodbye to our Maggie. She provided a peaceful environment for Maggie and our family. We are grateful for Dr. Thompson's gentle and thoughtful care and her follow-up communication. We were unaware this service existed until our friend told us they had used CodaPet and how sweet the experience was for them. We totally agree.
