Dear Dr. Forslund,
THANK YOU for coming to our home and for bringing peace to Baby. I really miss her. I have Baby’s ashes now with me, and her urn arrived just today. She will always be with us. Thanks again, Dr. Forslund, for making a difficult time easier to bear.

Best Regards,

How do I find the words to describe how wonderful the staff are at Home Pet Euthanasia? Thank you for helping our family through a difficult time.
Gidget was adopted in 1999 at 2 1/2 years, and she passed last month. She lived a full life. She was the ring bearer at our wedding. She watched her little brother grow to be 9 years old. I promised her she would not die in a vet hospital--alone, cold and without her family.
After a tearful phone call to Dr Annie, who spent an hour on the phone explaining quality of life and how a dog thinks during this time, I realized Gidget was just being brave for us. The following day, after a great last meal, I told her Dr. Annie was coming. She watched the sunset, full and happy; she even followed the sun around the house before coming inside. She passed with all of us holding her. She seemed to truly be at peace and out of pain.
For us, she was a sister, mother and companion, who will always have a place of honor in our hearts.

Molly was loyal, lovable, and playful. She knew when it was appropriate to assume the role of a guard dog, and at the same time she was the most adorable and affectionate canine there ever was. Molly was a perfect companion to our family. She can never be replaced, and we will live on with the most beautiful memories of her and our times on earth together.
Dr. Forslund, I believe you perform a wonderful service for families that love and value the relationships they have developed over the years with their pets.  More importantly, you come across to me as someone who sincerely cares about the families and pets you service while performing your duties as a doctor.
Thank you for all you do to make these trying times a bit easier to manage.

Dear Dr. Forslund,

Thank you so much for everything you did yesterday. It's never easy to say goodbye to a beloved pet and companion, but I appreciate how dignified the process was and your professionalism.  I can tell you care very deeply about what you do. I am so comforted knowing that Whiskers transitioned in a safe, loving, dignified environment.

Kind regards,

The memories of Ira will always be in our hearts.  Everything was done with sincere sympathy.  Your words of comfort meant a great deal to us during this sad time.  I wish we knew about your service during the loss of our first dog...  Thank you Annie and Todd from the bottom of our hearts.

Dear Dr. Forslund,
Thank you so much for your kindness to me, Zoe and Zachary.  I really did have a difficult time saying good-bye to Zoe, but you made it all so much easier.  Your ability to instantly connect with Zachary and Zoe tells me that you are indeed a good and loving person.  I rescued Zoe from a busy street in 1998, and she immediately became part of my family.  She deserved nothing short of the transition you were able to give her in the comfort of her own bed.  Thank you!

I can't thank you enough for the caring and humane way you treated Angus on Sunday - having to say goodbye to my best friend on earth was so difficult and painful for me, but having it happen in his own home rather than in the impersonal and clinical surroundings of a vet's office made it so much more bearable...

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.

Sailor was an older soul … he had a calcified disk in his back and arthritis.  We used a supportive harness to help.  However, our walks got shorter as his back legs grew weaker.  In spite of Dr. Gordon’s and Susan Davis’ best efforts, Sailor finally could not stand.  Dr. Annie Forslund came to the house on January 14 and let Sailor leave this world where he was most happy – in the living room on his bed.  Dr. Forslund was wonderful – gentle, quiet, and loving … Sailor never had an anxious moment.  

Sailor’s toys are resting on his bed, as they were, untouched, hoping that his beautiful, spirit may visit.  I am grateful for every moment I had with him.  His beautiful soul has been, and will always be, a shining light in my life.  I will continue to quietly return that love to him every day …

Cassidy was our baby and was a very hard loss.  We had to make this decision that same day so due to the quick timing and how sick our baby Cassidy was, there was not much that was going to give us comfort but Dr. Forslund managed to do us that.    

Dr. Annie was very loving and kind and her calm demeanor and caring heart made things a little easier on us. We will always remember your kindness on that day. You have a great heart and you were of great help in bringing peace to us on that very sad day. We will always remember you for all you did to help Cassidy and us.   Thank you Dr. Forslund, thank you for comforting us.
