A good quality of life is paramount for our pets and if we are reaching a stage where medication or surgery cannot make life more tolerable then euthanasia must be considered. Reaching a decision whereby euthanasia may be the kindest option is a very difficult journey and we will always be there to support you in any way that we can.

At Brannock veterinary Clinic we will always try to arrange a euthanasia appointment at a quiet time in the surgery, out-with normal surgery hours. This allows us to give you and your pet our undivided attention and to minimise any delays on your arrival at the surgery.

You are more than welcome to stay with your pet. In most cases we will place a catheter to allow us access to a vein to make the administration of the injection as smooth and pain free as possible but if your pet is very agitated we may suggest administering a sedative prior to the injection.

On giving the injection an overwhelming feeling of tiredness is all that our beloved pets feel as they slip away.

We can arrange cremation on your behalf using The Pet Crematorium based in Larkhall either on a routine basis or with individual ashes back.

Prices are available on request. You are of course able to take your pet away for a home burial
