Support for the Journey Ahead
Grief doesn’t end when your pet’s life does. Losing a furry family member is heart-wrenching, and it’s perfectly normal to feel overwhelmed. Deepwoods Veterinary Services provides grief resources, reading materials, and connections to local pet loss support groups for those who may need extra help processing the loss.
We also encourage creating personal goodbyes—bringing your pet’s favorite blanket, playing a familiar song, or even writing a letter to be read aloud during the visit. It’s small things like these that bring comfort and meaning to the process.
