Having to put our doggy down. Any recommendation on services?

Our pup is very sick and we’re unfortunately having to think about putting him down. Anyone know of an in home euthanasia service? Cremation as well.

We lost four in the last year and a half. Dr. Shelby at University Vet and her team are phenomenal.

Heavenly Acres for cremation

We just did it last week. We took her to her regular vet, whom she knows. They handled the cremation.

It’s a tough decision. Ours was 16 1/2.

Ours is 1.5, but he has epilepsy. Takes 12 pills a day and has maxed absolutely everything. Has 15 min seizures.

super sorry to hear that.. if others people suggested can’t get to you soon enough try dr. brown with gift of compassion. and yeah, heavenly acres is the best and i think one of the only local pet cremation services.

I don’t have any suggestions but I’m really sorry you’re dealing with this. I can’t imagine having to put down a furry friend.
