Euthanasia Requests

8/23/2016

 
FAQ > Services

There may come a time when an owner knows it’s time to say goodbye to their suffering pet. We encourage owners to go to their own veterinarian for euthanasia services, but we also recognize that it isn’t always feasible. Relinquishing your pet for euthanasia at the R-H SPCA involves surrendering your pet to our custody. There is no fee, but donations are always appreciated. After the pet is surrendered, we evaluate them to see if we are in agreement that euthanasia is in the best interest of the pet due to health and/or behavior. We cannot allow owners to be with their pet during the procedure, nor can we return remains to them since that is considered practicing veterinary medicine in the state of Virginia. We do not have a veterinarian on staff to offer those services.
