Help for Pet Owners - Behavior Problems/Health Issues  [Top of Page]

In-Home Euthanasia Service - From Home to Heaven
When my Lucy girl was getting sicker, I worried about her last moments.  She was a feisty dog, unhappy with the vet office and being touched at her legs and feet.  I did not want her last moments to be stressed by trying to bite the vet, panting and wild-eyed as she died, scared out of her mind.  Instead, From Home to Heaven made her passing tranquil, loving and compassionate - right at home in my arms. It was an experience I'll never forget and am grateful for.  Also, the peace of mind of knowing they have a 2-hour window to arrive at your home from the time you call if there is urgency was wonderful. My dog had a condition that could worsen in an instant, and knowing I could make the decision any time of day or night was huge.  Cost is reasonable, not much higher than the vet office.

Owners of Blind Dogs
Regardless if you're an owner of a newly blinded dog, have adopted a blind/visually impaired dog (or puppy), this site offers a Blind dog list and message board, support and information you need to help both you and your beloved dog. If you're new to this situation-rest assured it does get much better. Most dogs adjust well and lead happy near-normal lives. Before long you will be amazed at what a blind dog can do!
