The inspiration for Treasured Friend Vet was my border collie Red Rover. Red became ill, and it was obvious that he was suffering and was not going to recover. When his time came I knew I did not want his last moments to be in the hospital where we were treating him but at home. Although heartbreaking, Red's home euthanasia was peaceful and private and is actually a very comforting memory to me. I realized all pets and families deserve a dignified and compassionate goodbye at home in comfort, and Treasured Friend Veterinary Services makes that possible. In loving memory of my treasured friend  |
