Euthanasia

Compassionate and Humane Care for Your Pet

The APF understands the emotional weight of deciding that a beloved pet may need humane euthanasia. If you’re considering our affordable end-of-life services, please call us at (518) 374-3944 ext. 101. Our team will answer any questions you may have and guide you through the process, ensuring you and your pet receive respectful and caring support.

  • Appointments Required: Humane euthanasia is available by appointment only. Please note that, for procedural reasons, pet owners are not able to stay with their pet during the process.

  • Emergency Situations: If your pet requires immediate care, please take them to a local Emergency Animal Hospital.

  • Consultation with Your Veterinarian: We recommend discussing your pet’s health, age, and prognosis with your veterinarian before making an appointment for humane euthanasia.
