Pet Final Care

One of the most difficult decisions we as pet owners may have to make is saying goodbye to a beloved member of our family. Our team will be there to support you as you make the difficult decisions associated with end-of-life care. We will address all of your concerns regarding hospice and euthanasia and offer you support during this difficult time.

Knowing that our elderly pet partners may be in pain from various conditions, such as intervertebral disc degeneration and degenerative joint disease, is very tough. The staff at Golden Heart Veterinary Services uses a range of diagnostic tools to treat senior companion animals and those who have terminal illnesses. Maintaining your pet’s health as the end draws near is of utmost importance. We can provide individualized quality-of-life assessments and support in identifying and managing pain.

We do traditional gas cremations as the other clinics in our area only offer “aquamation”.

Quality of Life Exams

Our staff will work with you to assess and monitor the quality of life of your pet, identifying changes in their illness before they happen. One of the main worries a family has while taking care of a pet near the end of its life is how to manage pain and suffering. If your pet has a medical history, we will review it. We will also talk about the predicted course of the disease, potential consequences, and available treatments for any symptoms of discomfort you may be observing.

Euthanasia

It's never simple to decide to part ways. You'll never have to rely on yourself if you have our team's assistance. We commit to ensuring that you, your pet, and your entire family have an easy and comfortable farewell. Our kind and caring doctors will help you all the way through.

Cremation

The loss of a loved pet is always challenging, and the staff at Golden Heart Veterinary Services understands the importance of treating your pet with care and respect even after it has passed. Here at Golden Heart Veterinary Services, we offer both private and group cremations. When a pet is privately cremated, it is cremated by itself, and the pet’s ashes are carefully retrieved and returned to the owner. When a pet is in a group cremation, the pet is still treated respectfully and carefully, but the ashes are not returned to the owner.
