There is a story with each one of these pets that have passed to the rainbow bridge. Cats and dogs, many older, a few young. All loved. Cancer claimed quality of life for many. Other had end stage failure of their bodies. Euthanasia, humane death was the cause of death for most. Most think performing euthanasia is the hardest part of my job. It is not. It is not easy but it is one of the most rewarding parts of my life. To be able to have the relationships with my clients and my pets and be the advocate for humane quality of life….truly a treasured gift. Our pets put us first every day they live with us. They are greeting us at the door, they are our confidants. They ride shotgun in the car. Their pictures cover the fridge. The day they pass is the one day we must put them first.
Ever so grateful for all these stories.
Fondly,
DR C

We are sad to note the passing of a client, good friend and neighbor, Mike Smalley. I met Deb and Mike over 20 years ago with their dogs, Halley and Morgan. A few years later, they moved in across the street. Our kids have grown up together along with the current dogs that now fill the house. Our families have been able to share pet care as well as being good neighbors, always helping out and being kind. Mike is at peace with his beloved dogs, especially Autumn. Here he is with her a few years back with her. She passed last fall. Mike worked at Rose Marine in Gloucester for over thirty years. He will be missed by all that were blessed to know him.
