After months of trying different pills to control his pain, we made the difficult choice to put our wonderful senior dog Stanley to sleep. We decided it might be more stressful to bring him into our regular vet, so we searched online and found Dr. Carrie and Full Circle. She would come to our home and help Stanley pass on. I was able to communicate with Dr. Carrie via email and she was informative and kind. She said we could cancel at the last minute if we needed to...everything was on our terms. When the day came, Dr. Carrie and her assistant came to our home and were compassionate and patient. They got to know Stanley and got right on the floor to give him a pet when they walked in the door. When we were ready, they gave us all the explanations and time that we needed with each step. Stanley had a truly peaceful death in the bed he laid in with us each night, in the arms of my husband and I. Our other pets were able to see what was going on, so hopefully that has made things less stressful for them.
After Dr. Carrie and her assistant left, we found they had left information on grieving your pet and a trinket that we have kept nearby ever since. A few days later, she checked in to see how we were doing and then delivered a paw print from Stanley in clay that we'll keep forever.
I just can't say enough about Dr. Carrie and Full Circle. We found her services to be very affordable, but after going through this (and having not-so-great experiences in the past when our beloved pets were euthanized), we would have paid anything to have the peace of mind and compassion we were given.
