    Our baby girl
    Claudia F.

    This was the second time we have used them. Dr. Becky and her assistant Taylor were wonderful. They explained the entire procedure to me and my husband. We weren't rushed so we could spend more time with her. When it was over, they wrapped her in a blanket (head showing) and my husband carried her to their car. It was a beautiful, peaceful, dignified passing for a wonderful dog. Thank you again for your kindness in a truly awful situation.

    In memory of Boxcar the Rockstar.

    I truly want to thank everyone at Final Journey LLC for their help with my service dog's passing a month ago. Not only did they give Boxcar a beautiful transition, but they were so genuine and compassionate. Dr. Kristen Klie took such care in guiding us all through the process in the most peaceful way. Kevin, the vet tech who assisted when Boxcar passed, came back personally to bring him home a week later. The card we received with his urn was unbelievably kind, and even mentioned Boxcar's adventures and how much he loved pink. It was so touching and meant the world to us. If that tragic day is coming for your pet, I would recommend Final Journey one hundred times over. They are a real blessing.

    TODAY At 11:30, this Vet, Dr. Klie injected two HEALTHY, sibling, bonded 6 yr Old Chows, named Bella and Rumple!! She stood guard on the porch, as I was there by 11:40 am. She said, "The PROCESS has begun and cannot be stopped." Two weeks ago, Melvin of Waterbury, CT. reached out as they were being evicted. Last ditch rescue plans were in place by my friend, Michele of Danbury. Deadline NOON. His parents then did a 180. The name is, Final Journey, a service comes to your home to put your SICK DOG DOWN; but, look~ these pups were healthy. Perfectly healthy CHOWS, needed their Chow familiar foster.....RIP. ***Dr. Klie of "FINAL JOURNEY"***, Monroe, CT. I met her, it's true!

    This is Remi about six years ago happy playing fetch with his favorite stick.

    Yesterday was truly one of the worst day of my life so far. After 16 years, 1 month & 14 days of love, fun, and silliness, Remi passed away peacefully in my arms with the dignity that he deserved. I, on the other hand, ugly cried for an hour or so... I am now doing better than expected and I think that's because he truly needed & deserved that peaceful end. Final Journey provided the most compassionate care for my dog and for me. Dr. Klie and Stacey were professional yet caring, direct yet sympathetic, while being respectful and understanding the whole time. They took tender living care with Remi from the time they walked in the door to the time they walked out the door with him. I can not thank them enough for that compassion, caring, and respect!

    We were concerned that our cat, Molly, had been losing weight and eating less. When I found…read moremultiple piles of foamy vomit, we brought her in (around 6pm). We waited for hours in the waiting room, during which they took her vitals and told us they were normal. They finally took her away from us to be examined (which we didn't like), and then suggested bloodwork. Again, they took her, saying bloodwork would take a couple of hours. We went home for something to eat and called them back to check on Molly. They wanted to hold her there until they had the bloodwork results, but we told them we'd prefer to take her home while we waited. They resisted until my daughter called them to reinforce that we wanted to bring her home. When we picked her up around 11:30pm, we were only allowed to meet with a nurse, not the veterinarian. We were told that nothing on her bloodwork seemed too concerning, but there was evidence of infection and they'd give her an anti-nausea injection and fluids, and gave us antibiotics to administer at home. From the moment she crawled out of her carrier, Molly was a mess, walking unevenly, zombie-like, staring straight ahead. Her demeanor had been normal when we took her in. Called back to ask if she'd been sedated, they said no. Research indicated other people's cats had a bad reaction to the anti-nausea (Cerenia), but that it usually passed in 24-48 hours. We waited all the next day. Her condition did not improve. Got in to Oronoque Animal Hospital in Stratford at noon the next day. The veterinarian gently examined Molly in front of us, walked us through all of Shoreline's bloodwork results in detail, then performed an x-ray that showed a mass in her chest plus intestinal issues. She then arranged for us to immediately get an ultrasound at another hospital and called us before we'd even left there to explain the findings. Our cat was very, very sick with multiple internal masses. We brought her home and she died at home that night, less than 48 hours later after being discharged from Shoreline. If Shoreline had done any imaging (we asked about it, they didn't offer it to us), they would have found that she had severe issues and we could have spent the next two days making her comfortable and arranging euthanasia at home. Instead, we spent one day waiting for the Cerenia to leave her system as she declined, and the next day driving around to get a proper diagnosis. She died at home that night, before the euthanasia appointment, and it was a terrible death that my family will never forget. $1,100 worth of charges for an exam and bloodwork from Shoreline and we got sent home with antibiotics from a discharge nurse. Not even allowed discussion with the veterinarian when we picked her up. "That's not our protocol." They should be ashamed of themselves.

I called the vet and they referrerd us to VCA Shoreline emergency center. I called them and they told us to come right in. When we got there they took Gracie out of the car and immediately assessed her. Unfortunately she had Hemangiosarcoma a very aggressive cancer which shows no signs or symptoms until it's to late. There was a tumor in her abdomen which burst that afternoon. Unfortunately we had to put her to sleep. VCA Shoreline Veterinary Emergency Center made an extremely difficult situation a little easier. Thank you, The Zacchia's

My call was promptly returned, a convenient time scheduled, and the process discussed. During this time of social distancing, some special accommodations needed to be made, but they in no way interfered with the love my dog received that day. Dr Dale played music made for dogs ears only and was extremely comforting to me as well. She made a clay print of my dogs paw, which I will cherish forever. The support Dr Dale gave that day extends far beyond as she checked in on me and provided access to support groups. When I picked up my dogs remains, they where surrounded by meditation gardens and considering the circumstances (pandemic restrictions) I couldn't have asked for anything more comforting and reassuring that my dog was truly loved and that I had made the right decision. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Kathy Bremer at XTerra Dalmatians
