Owner Requested Euthanasia & Cremations

Our shelter is committed to saving every animal in our care who can be saved. Owner requested euthanasia is by appointment only. Please call 772-223-8822 to schedule your appointment. We do not euthanize healthy or treatable pets, even at an owner’s request. 

We only euthanize a pet if:

• A veterinarian has assessed that there is no chance of recovering an acceptable quality of life, or
• It would be clearly inhumane or unsafe not to do so immediately, or
• In cases of irremediable canine aggression when (1) a veterinarian has eliminated medical treatment as a solution; (2) rehabilitation by a specialist in canine behavior has failed; and (3) staff and public safety cannot be reasonably assured, or other management protocols seriously compromise quality of life.
