Euthanasia
Compassionate Pet Euthanasia in Andover, MN
Euthanasia
Saying goodbye to a beloved pet is one of the most difficult and heartbreaking experiences we can face. At Andover Animal Hospital, we understand how deeply your pet is a part of your family, and we’re here to provide compassionate guidance and support every step of the way.
If you’re uncertain about whether euthanasia is the right decision for your pet, our veterinary team can take the time to assess your pet’s condition, answer your questions, and help you understand your options. Our goal is to support you and your family with kindness and compassion as you make this deeply personal decision.
Process
We provide a gentle means of allowing your beloved pet to pass without pain or stress. We always first administer a sedative medication to help make it a more comfortable and kind passing, followed by a medication that helps your pet pass away peacefully.
AfterCare:
We offer group cremation as well as individual cremation.
Group cremation is where your pet is cremated with other family pets, and no ashes are returned to you.
If you choose individual cremation, your pet is cremated separately, and the ashes are then returned to you. It usually takes two weeks for ashes to be returned.
We offer a memorial fur clipping of your loved pet as a remembrance if you choose. This is offered to you at no charge as our gratitude to you for entrusting us with the care of your pet. Clay paw prints are available by request for a small fee.
Burial:
If you choose to bury your pet at your home or elsewhere, please refer to your local and city ordinances, laws, and regulations that may apply to you.
