Euthanasia is a very hard and trying time in our lives as our beloved pets leave us.  Scheduling an in home euthanasia is one way we can help your family and your pets stay in their familiar and comfortable environment.  Euthanizing pets is one of the hardest parts of our jobs, and we strive to work in reverence with you and your pets, giving them the peace and rest they need.    

Laser Therapy

By

We have the ability of using our Companion Animal Laser equipment to painlessly use laser energy to stop pain, reduce inflammation, and accelerate recovery from both acute and chronic conditions in your pet.  We use it to help with arthritic dogs, reduce pain after surgery, clear up ear inflammation associated with infections, and other ways to increase body function and mobility.  Laser therapy is a drug free way to treat your pet, getting them back to 100%.  Please call us for an appointment if you are interested in this treatment modality.   

Microchip Pet Identification

By

Imagine if your dog or cat got lost. You’d want to give him or her the best chance of getting home. With microchipping, you can.

Microchipping is a safe, permanent way to identify your pet in case he or she becomes lost. A microchip, which is a tiny device about the size and shape of a grain of rice, is placed just under the loose skin at the back of the neck. When a lost dog or cat without an ID tag is found, a veterinarian or veterinary technician will use a handheld microchip scanner to check for a chip. If the pet has one, it will transmit its ID number to the scanner via a low-frequency radio wave. The veterinary hospital or shelter then calls the chip manufacturer, retrieves the pet owner’s contact information, and calls the owner.

Even the most responsible pet owners can’t always guarantee their pet won’t get lost. A leash could break or slip out of your hand, a pet could push through a screen door or window, or a contractor or friend might accidentally leave a door or gate open.

We recommend that you use a microchip, along with a collar and ID tag, to identify your pet. An ID tag is still a reliable identification method. Pets that have tags with current contact information are more likely to not end up in shelters and tend to get home faster than those without tags. However, collars and ID tags aren’t permanent and can be removed (overnight or for grooming); pets can also lose them. With a microchip, your pet will have a much better chance of being identified and returned to you. Pets without microchips that end up in shelters may be adopted out to another family or even euthanized.

Please contact us to schedule an appointment to microchip your pet. Although we hope your pet never becomes lost, we want you to be prepared. We can also suggest a plan to have in place so if your pet does go missing, you’ll be able to act quickly.
