End-Of-Life Pet Care in Jacksonville

Compassionate Euthanasia Services

There is no situation more difficult than dealing with an aging pet that is very sick. We at San Juan Animal Hospital have all had to make the tough decisions when it comes to end-of-life care and understand how an owner feels.

Discuss your pet’s end-of-life care needs with our veterinarians by calling (904) 389-7696.

Difficult Decisions

Should you decide that euthanasia is the right decision for your pet, you will also have the option to be in the room during the process. Some people wish to be with their pet and officially say goodbye during the final moments. Others feel that the experience would be too much to handle. Whether you choose to be with your pet or not, rest reassured that you have given them a lifetime of love.

Either decision you make is appropriate.

We recommend that you arrange time to spend with your pet directly before the procedure. If you choose to be in the room, you can still have some private time with your pet beforehand. It is sometimes helpful to say goodbye in this final setting.

Talk to your family about euthanasia. Everyone should be able to share their thoughts and feelings on the process, and ultimately decide if they would like to be present or not.

The team at San Juan Animal Hospital is here for you during this difficult time. Call us at (904) 389-7696.
