My husband and I recently had to make the hard decision to put our dog Lola of 14 years down. We preferred to use an at-home euthanasia service but we had to make our decision on a weekend and everybody was booked. Therefore, we decided to take her to Southern Arizona Veterinary Specialty and Emergency Center. I was so pleased that they could take us back right away. They had a comfortable, family-friendly room where euthanasia takes place.

My sweet girl was placed on a comfortable large ottoman that they had in the room. They wheeled her out to start the IV, otherwise she was with us the whole time. The vet (I believe it was Dr. Dawson) and staff were so sweet and sympathetic. Lola was my baby girl for 14 precious years, so this was an incredibly hard day for me and my family. But this place made the process easier. I appreciate the sympathy and comfort they provided us. Even on the day I went to pick up her ashes. They were so kind. Thank you for all you do Southern Arizona Veterinary Specialty and Emergency Center!

Very helpful and caring. There was an employee (I think her name was Precious?) who was very compassionate and helpful, asking if we needed anything while we waited and assisting those animal owners who's pets had passed away. I did have to pay a $125 "exam fee" when I first arrived, but because my animal was fine and didn't require anything past initial triage, the fee was refunded and my visit cost nothing. Overall would recommend

I think these people are really kind, very understanding and patient, the only thing is they are a bit expensive, I wish they weren't because they are great. They helped us with are fur baby was really sick and had to be put to sleep. They let us stay with her and gave us a small mold of her foot prints. I would give them 5 stars if they weren't so expensive. Thank you for all of your kindness and understanding. You are awesome.

Unfortunately because I didn't have the money to pay up front for the office visit my dog didn't get seen! The lady there told me to surrender my dog to get her help! Never going to do that my dogs are like my kids I'm not going to get rid of them! I feel they could've done something for me but chose not to after all the business I've done there, I'm just saddens me they wouldn't help me out and the guy there was so worried about getting there clip board back like I was going to take it! Guess I'll be looking for a different place to take my dogs when I have an emergency maybe someone who has a heart and not greedy for money!
