Owner Requested Euthanasia & Cremation
Having to say goodbye to a companion animal is very difficult. We know the bond with a beloved pet is very special and our goal is to help you through this difficult time.
AWA’s Pet Clinic offers pet owner-requested euthanasia for pets with major or terminal illnesses. During the euthanasia process you may choose to be with your pet in a quiet, private room. You and your pet will be treated with compassion and respect every step of the way.
Please note: Euthanasia is done at the discretion of our Veterinary staff.
