What is pet euthanasia and how do I know when it’s the right time?

Euthanasia is the act of putting an animal to rest. Knowing when it is the right time can be challenging for most pet owners. We recommend you reach out to one of our veterinarians to discuss the quality of life of your pet. During a private consultation, you will be able to better understand if this is the right option for your pet.

Can I stay with my cat or my dog during euthanasia?

We encourage our owners to stay with their pets for the entire process. There are also times when it can be too difficult for an owner(s) to stay. At your request, we will provide the last bit of love until your pet’s final breath.

How is the euthanasia drug administered?

Our veterinarian(s) will walk you through it step-by-step as they proceed to the final injection. The drug is given intravenously and takes effect immediately.

Does your hospital provide bereavement counselling?

Our team is always here to listen. We understand how hard it can be as many of us have been through it ourselves. We also offer various types of aftercare options from burial to cremation along with many memorial products to choose from. The affiliated crematorium also offers cremation viewings and the option to visit gravesites. With many options available, we hope to provide you with the much-needed closure and comfort in the days ahead.
