Euthanasia

Here at the San Diego Humane Society, we know that your pet is a member of the family. Losing your beloved companion is a painful experience, but we are here to help you through with compassionate care and supportive programs.

Though saying goodbye to a cherished pet is never easy, we provide a serene, secluded place that is respectful and sensitive to you and your pet.

Pet Loss Support
We provide a Pet Loss Support Group here at the San Diego Humane Society. The group provides an environment where thoughts and emotions can be shared with those of similar circumstances and feelings of grief are understood and validated. This resource is available for those who have lost a pet or are considering euthanasia. Read more here »
