Saying Goodbye

With grace and dignity.

No matter how much you try to mentally prepare, the end of a pet’s life is an understandably difficult time. Losing a member of your family is hard and making those tough end of life decisions and arrangements are often full of stress and emotion.

Your extended family at the Obetz Animal Hospital is here to help in any way we can. That includes treatment plans, information, euthanasia, and cremation services.

Pet Euthanasia

How Will I know when it’s Time?

Throughout your pet’s golden years changes occur rapidly. If you are struggling with the question of “Is it time?” please consider utilizing The Ohio State University’s “How Will I Know?” Questionnaire linked below or scheduling a quality-of-life exam with one of our compassionate veterinarians.

Cremation Services

Our clinic supports the aftercare of deceased animals with cremation services. Any animal that passes away in our clinic is cremated if they are not taken home for burial.

You have the option to take your pet home for burial or to any funeral home you select to work with.

If you have any questions about the euthanasia process or have questions about cremation please, don’t hesitate to ask.
