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,

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,

One of our main concerns with our Pippin was in spite of his health challenges after his heart attack was that he would never suffer.

Dr. Forslund was truly an angel in our time of dire need.  She was amazingly kind in our time of need and gave us so much time to say goodbye to our boy.  She impressed me with her care, attention and love for our dog.  She made the passing much better than it could have been.  Thank the lord we were able to connect with her and be able to make a rough situation into something which we can remember as a peaceful and calm ending for a highly valued and loved family member.  

Rest in peace Little Pippin...

Bailey was the first dog I bonded to in a special way. This was the first dog that felt truly part of my life. She was loving, she would sleep at the bedroom door where she could watch all comings and goings and was quick to inform us if something was happening, she would come tell us if one of the kids was acting up or in trouble. She was a beautiful dog to look at and seemed to be smiling always.

Dr. Forslund, I was pleased with your service to the extent anyone having to make the choice could be pleased. You have a calming nature that was most beneficial at a time when anxiety was getting the better of us.  You couldn't have been a better choice to help us with this.  I'm glad you came ... You where the right choice.  You are an angel. 

Thank You again.

It's been slightly over 2 months since the passing of our dear Chubby boy and over 6 months for our beloved Didi. It is difficult not to think about my furry boys when we used to spend so much time outdoor in the summer.  But I know they are in Dog Heaven watching over us!

Your wonderful services really gave us a calming effect, the saving of my boys from further pain and suffering! The closeness of having a family member say "goodbye " in the house, in their own sanctuary is a comfort! We like to thank you again for the kindness and caring you brought to help our furry babies. I will certainly recommend this alternate path to all my friends with furry companions!

Mr. Bear was 15 years old and had a great life. He was strong and brave to the end and of course always loving. We feel so grateful to have had Bear with us so long.  We miss him so much, but know he is no longer in pain.  

We want to thank Dr Forslund for making Bear’s passing easier for all of us.  We appreciate her professionalism and caring attitude.  Dr Forslund took her time explaining everything and was very caring.  She didn’t rush and she took the time to introduce herself to our dog.

Thanks again for giving our Bear a peaceful passing.

Dear Dr. Forslund,
Words cannot express how grateful I am that Dolly was able to lie on my lap, eating turkey slices when you finally put her to sleep. She must have been so happy in her final moments, not scared at all like when she has to go to the vet’s office. I will be recommending you to anyone who is in similar circumstances, such that their pets may depart under the best possible circumstances.
Again, our deepest thanks…

Dear Dr Forslund
Thank you so much for calling me the next day about Ripley.  I think you are one of the most sensitive vet's I have ever come across. "When Ripley was 4 months old, she found a loose board on the back fence. The fence backed up to a slope, a culvert that ran along the back of our neighborhood culdesac and she made her way to freedom. Max who was 7 and had never run away before, followed her. Christie posted this picture on every tree and lamppost in the Nohl Ranch area and two days later a woman called who had found Max with a little blonde lab that would not come to her, so we got Max back. Two days after that Ripley came back through the loose board in the fence. She'd tracked herself back home. That won't happen this time though...we love you, Ripley."
I will recommend your loving service to everyone I know who is in this circumstance.

Bear Bear would have been 14 in June.  He had a wonderful life. He loved sleeping on  the bed, licking your legs dry after a shower, chasing the gulls on the beach, sneaking away with Peanut for a run on the beach, sleeping and looking for your scraps.  On that day, you arrived with a demeanor of kindness and calm.  You granted us so much patience and calm.  I never felt rushed with you.  You sat at the end of the bed and were just there.  When I decided it was time, there were a few tears but I knew it was time.  Bear Bear also knew.  My husband was there and Bear Bear acknowledged him and then said good bye.  I held my hand over his heart with my eyes looking at him and said good bye.  He was so a peace, as was I.
I have to say, the entire process left me feeling calm; it was such a beautiful experience.  The follow up calls were so personal and real, just a genuine kindness and caring that I and my family were alright.  This is a very special time for you and your pet, do it right, achieve a peace of mind that is never questioned.

Dear Dr. Forslund,

I just wanted to thank you again for all your help and support. And your calling yesterday just to check in meant so much to me. Nobody does that these days. Nobody! I really appreciate it.

I miss my boy terribly but have made peace with the situation. Though I do still look in familiar places for Udo and walk the yard often just to remember, and will probably continue to do so for some time.  I know it was the right thing and am at peace with it.  

Thank you for reaching out and for the follow up.  You have been so kind sharing your care and time.  It is very much appreciated and has certainly meant the world to me.

You have made the unbearable, bearable.
