Dallas was rescued from a dog shelter by my daughter. She called us up to say she bought a dog that has the same color hair as her: red, brown, black, and blond! Dallas had a sweet face and demeanor, reddish-brown fur, a black face, and a circle of black around her tail, which waved in the air like a feather. As she aged, the tail got lower and lower, but it still wagged. She was my best friend. Dr. Forslund is an angel who came into our lives when we needed someone to help us with Dallas. She did not feel like a stranger to us. She showed compassion to us both, petting and getting to know Dallas and comforting me. It was so comforting to see Dallas go in a very dignified way. Thank you, Dr. Forslund!

Dear Dr. Forslund,
Dante, the little kitty that could. I adopted him at six weeks old. He and all his extra toes lead an amazingly long seventeen-year life. My "cat of little brains" was the most friendly, loving, sweet, dumb-as-a-box-of-rocks purr monster. My dim bulb has been the brightest light in my life. Thank you for providing a compassionate, loving, low-stress, peaceful service to both the animals in your care and to the people who truly care for their fur babies as much as they would their own child. You are blessed with an amazing heart and I am so grateful to have had you come and care for Dante and me.
In loving memory of Bandit, our baby giant. April 19th, 2004 to January 21st, 2013.
The kindest, most unselfish thing you can do is to avoid the dreaded and stressful vets office and allow your pet to have the comfort of home and family in their last moments. The patience, kindness and compassion that Dr Forslund offers is such a comfort. From the first difficult phone call to the follow up call the next day, everything is handled with a gentle voice and gentle hands. It is always difficult to say goodbye, but I will not regret having my sweet, devoted dogs spend their last moments in my arms and at home.
Our bond was sealed those first few days of his life, and Taki never left my side; following me everywhere I went and poking me in the back with his paw (and crying) if he thought I was ignoring him. From the moment I talked to Dr. Forslund, I found her to be a very caring and compassionate person, and she didn’t rush me into making any immediate decisions about Taki. She just told me that she would be there for me when I needed her. It was so nice to know that I could call her when I thought Taki was ready to leave this earth. 
Thirteen years ago a 10 week-old female Golden ended up in Shelley’s arms, in our car, and in our hearts forever. We named her Amber, appropriate for the color of her coat. Having told Shelley that I just didn’t want our new friend to see our bed as a place to hang out, only a week later one of us was found to have invited Amber up on the bed (oh, I guess that was me), and so it went until she couldn’t make it on her own. We didn’t “own” Amber, she owned us.
It is with great sadness to let all of you know, my sweet beautiful Taylor passed away on September 19, 2010 at the age of 14yrs old. The weather that day was gorgeous. We visited & reminisced about our lives together.... all the things he would do to make me laugh, smile and love him. I told Taylor how PROUD I was of him and THANKED him for being part of my life and fighting through all his health obstacles just to stay with me. I told him it was ok to leave, he didn't have to take care of me I would be ok and would see him and Baylee one day.
We did not euthanize Bogart. He died of natural causes in our house and Home Pet Euthanasia helped us with his aftercare/cremation. Todd answered our call late at night with his calm and caring voice. He then came out after midnight, was very empathetic and at the same time knew what to do. The way he so carefully put our Bogart on a stretcher, tucked him in with its fabric and carried him from our home – well, Todd showed so much respect and compassion while demonstrating his experience and knowledge. Since we believe all life is receptive to love, we can’t help but think that Bogart knew Todd’s love along with ours.
