Recently one of our technicians, Erik Campen, was featured in the Oregonian in an article regarding euthanasia and pet loss support. The article explores the apparent increase in euthanasia in our current economic climate and the issues surrounding grief and bereavement when a pet is put to sleep. Dove Lewis offers a free pet loss support group that helps us come to terms with the loss of our animal companions in a supportive environment. The group meets several times a month and is facilitated by Enid Traisman, a certified grief counselor.
