If your dog has died at home or at the vet, you do not have to move them yourself. We can arrange collection and explain what happens next. There is no rush to make every decision at once.
Your dog receives an individual tracking ID at collection. It stays with them throughout their care, so the ashes returned to you are guaranteed to be only theirs.
We care for dogs of every size, including large and extra-large breeds.
We collect from homes and veterinary clinics across Melbourne’s west and central Victoria. You do not have to transport your dog yourself.
Collections are arranged by appointment, including across Ballarat and Melton.
