These appointments will offer basic veterinary care (vaccines, etc),treatment for minor illnesses, end-of-life care, and euthanasia. Prices can be viewed here. All services require a physical exam and full payment is due at the time of service. 

Pet Euthanasia

The SPCA is now offering pet euthanasia through the Louise R. Lester Spay/Neuter Clinic. Appointments for euthanasia are variable depending on your animal's needs and the vet's availability. We are partnering with Wright Funeral Home for pet cremation; if you want to plan for cremation, we will give you the contact for Wright Funeral Home to schedule in conjunction with the euthanasia appointment. It is the owner's responsibility to schedule cremation and transport the animal to Wright Funeral Home.

In-home euthanasia will also be offered within the Martinsville-Henry County area for $500. 

To schedule an in-home euthanasia, please call. Appointments are generally late afternoon and early evening. The veterinarian and a technician will come to your home to provide sedation and euthanasia services for your beloved pet. We also offer memorial options of a paw print ($10) and a vial of fur ($5) as additional services (please request when scheduling so supplies can be brought to facilitate). If you are interested in cremation for your animal, you will need to schedule a date and arrange transport to Wright Funeral Home (or your choice of cremation services). At this time, the SPCA does not provide transportation for animals. The SPCA can take the animal's body back to the SPCA for disposal for an additional $20 fee. 

Veterinarian reserves the right to refuse euthanasia if deemed inappropriate.
