Paws Over The Rainbow offers you the chance to say goodbye to your beloved pet in their own surroundings.

A vet will come to your house at an agreed time. If you need some assurance you are taking the right decision, the vet will start out by examining your pet. If you know euthanasia is the right decision, however, this is not necessary. Instead we will interact and bond with your pet to make them comfortable in our company.

There will be a brief form to go through, where you consent to the humane euthanasia and specify your choice for aftercare. When everyone feels ready, the vet will administer a sedative injection under the skin that will make your pet fall into a deep sleep. It normally takes 5-10 minutes for the injection to take effect. When your pet is asleep the vet administers the final injection, which is an overdose of anaesthetic, which will make your pet pass away peacefully and pain free.

We are always happy to speak to you before the visit if you have any questions, would like more details on the process or if you have an anxious or reactive pet that might benefit from some calming medication before the visit.
