THE LAST GIFT
The Last Gift
“Grief is the last act of love we give to our loved one. Where there is deep grief there is great love. Grief is a great rite of passage, it is a hero’s journey of courage, of sacred battles, sorrow, love, joy and loss. Through the darkness of grief we can see the light of love which transcends death. And with the pain can come gratitude for the gift of time we had, the love that was shared and the power to become a better person because they loved us.”
The Last Gift exists solely to ease the suffering of our faithful companions by providing peaceful, compassionate end-of-life care. Our goal is to minimize stress, preserve the human-animal bond, and treat every patient as our own. The Last Gift uses a collaboration of love, empathy, and past experiences to help give our beloved pets a dignified and peaceful transition in the comfort of their own home. We will always care for your entire family with honesty, love, and respect.
Why chose The Last Gift
Besides over 20 years of experience Dr Danielle has completed additional courses to receive her certification as a peaceful euthanasia veterinarian.
