Euthanasia/Cremation
Losing a pet is a part of pet ownership that no one wants to
experience, but at Platz Animal Hospital we can make sure your
pet passes pain-free and surrounded with love and compassion.
We do request that euthanasia appointments are scheduled with
a receptionist to ensure we have the appropriate staff available
for you and your pet. While we do not offer in-home euthanasia,
please see link below with recommended sources.
In-Home Euthanasia Services
We have used a family-owned and operated crematorium called
Trusted Journey since 1994. They offer respectful and
compassionate cremation services for all types of pets.
Trusted Journey offers routine and private cremation, clay and ink
paw prints, along with various urns and memorial keepsakes.
If your pet should pass away at home, Trusted Journey will offer to
pick up your pet from home. Please see link below for website.

The loss of a pet can be very overwhelming. Most pet owners
see their pets as part of the family or like a child. Grieving the
loss of a pet can be just as painful. Here are some resources
