When you first arrive, your veterinarian will explain the end of life pet care procedure. Feel free to ask any questions you still have. The actual procedure is simple, peaceful and done at a pace that will provide your pet the highest level of comfort.
Consultation: Discuss with your veterinarian the reasons for euthanasia, your pet's condition, and any concerns or questions you may have.
Preparation: Your veterinarian may provide you with options for aftercare, such as burial or cremation, and discuss how to prepare for the procedure.
Sedation: Your pet will be given a sedative to help them relax and feel less anxious during the process.
Injection: A licensed veterinarian will administer a euthanasia solution, typically through an injection in your pet's vein. This solution will cause a painless loss of consciousness and peaceful passing.
Aftercare: Once your pet has passed, your veterinarian will provide guidance on aftercare options you have chosen, such as arranging for the body to be taken to a crematorium or helping you with burial arrangements.
Grief and support: Allow yourself and your family time to grieve the loss of your beloved pet, and consider seeking support from friends, family, or a pet loss support group.
