What to expect

The appointment begins with a general exam that includes a quality of life assessment to ensure all present are comfortable with the decision of euthanasia. Once the family and veterinarian have confirmed the medical decision to move forward, your pet is provided a sedative to alleviate any anxiety or pain and allow for a peaceful, dignified passing. When your pet and your family are ready, the doctor will place an IV and proceed with administering the second medication for euthanasia. Usually, this takes only moments and the doctor will let you know once your pet has passed. At the conclusion of the appointment, the veterinarian will see their way out to allow the family privacy and gather items for moving the pet for transport to our Aquamation facility.

Aquamation Services

Lowcountry Pet Hospice is proud to offer the first of its kind, Aquamation, in the state of South Carolina. This aftercare alternative utilizes water and salts instead of the traditional fire method of cremation to provide ash remains. If utilizing this option for aftercare, you are welcome to assist in moving the pet from the home to our veterinarian’s care. For frequently asked questions and pricing please click here.

*An additional travel fee will be assessed beyond a 40-mile radius of Moncks Corner, SC within the Greater Charleston Metro Area. This fee will be determined when your appointment is confirmed.

**All appointments are scheduled for 1 hour with an additional hour for travel as we serve families across the entire Tricounty area based on their desired time requested or available. If additional time is needed to make a decision, we can schedule a follow up appointment for the next available day and time to discuss further options or possible euthanasia. In cases of an aggressive pet we will preschedule a second appointment same week/next day for euthanasia if the pet is not tolerable to strangers and injectable medications.

Cancellation Policy: We realize that end of life decisions can be difficult. If there is apprehension about a scheduled euthanasia appointment, please consider using the time for a quality of life assessment with no obligation to continue care. If cancelling after business hours of the day prior to the scheduled appointment, a cancellation fee of $180 will be applied.
