A NOTE ABOUT BURIAL
Each town has different regulations regarding home burial. I do not look into or have familiarity with these regulations. It is important when choosing burial to make sure the grave is at least 3-4 feet deep and a layer of stones can be put in the grave or on top of the grave. The drugs used during euthanasia can cause secondary poisoning and death to any animal who may get access to the deceased body. We want to be sure to keep your pet safe and all other animals in the area safe.
ABOUT DR. FRASER
Dr. Fraser grew up in the small town of Winterport, Maine. She attended Elon College in North Carolina for her undergraduate studies in Biology. It wasn’t until her third year of college that she realized veterinary medicine was a much better fit for her than human medicine. In preparation for vet school, Dr. Fraser spent a year in Maine working in a mixed animal practice and then 2 years at UNC Chapel Hill working in neuroscience research. It was here that she met her husband, Randal.
