Many of our employees have experienced and understand the depth of loss one experiences when a beloved four-legged family member has passed. For that reason, MVA provides a pet loss support group to help grieving owners in need. Our pet group is designed to provide grieving pet parents with a safe, confidential environment to share their feelings with others who have experienced pet loss. The group is operated by veterinarians and veterinary nurses who have experience with pet loss. Some situations where the support of a group may be beneficial include the following: Death of a pet Euthanasia Runaway or lost pet Living with an elderly, chronically ill or terminally ill pet Explaining pet loss to a child.
