Individual Cremation

Our Individual Cremation service provides a dignified and private option for families who wish to receive their pet’s ashes.


Includes:


  • Private cremation—your pet is cremated individually
  • Wood urn
  • Name etching on the urn
  • Clay paw print keepsake


Ashes Return Options:


  • Pick-up: You may collect your pet’s ashes directly from Abbey Glen Pet Memorial Park in Lafayette, NJ.


  • Mailed: Ashes can be shipped via USPS. You will receive an email with a tracking number and a link to USPS tracking once the shipping label is created. Initially, the tracking may only display "shipping label created." Updates and an estimated delivery window (typically 10–14 days) will appear once USPS picks up the package (daily by 3 PM).


  • Hand-delivered: We offer personal delivery of your pet’s ashes. Please coordinate with Dr. Cory to arrange a convenient time and location. (Typically delivered within 7–10 days.)


We are honored to help you remember and celebrate your pet’s life in a way that brings comfort and peace. If you have any special requests or questions about the cremation process, please feel free to reach out at any time.


Communal Cremation

For families who prefer not to receive ashes, communal cremation offers a respectful and meaningful way to honor your pet’s memory.


Includes:



In-Home Quality of Life Consultation


Helping you make informed, compassionate decisions for your pet’s comfort and well-being.


Knowing when the time is right or how to improve your pet’s comfort can be overwhelming. Our in-home quality of life consultation offers the clarity and support you need, in the comfort of your own home.


A 30–45 minute visit in your home with Dr. Cory to evaluate your pet’s comfort and provide personalized guidance.

During the visit, we will:


  • Observe your pet’s behavior, mobility, and daily habits in their home environment
  • Discuss appetite, hydration, hygiene, mood, and overall comfort
  • Identify any signs of pain or distress, using pain scales and quality of life tools (e.g., CSU Canine Pain Scale, Ohio State’s "How Will I Know?" worksheet)
  • Provide recommendations to improve comfort and quality of life
  • Discuss whether further diagnostics, treatments, or medications may be beneficial
  • Offer guidance on when euthanasia might be appropriate and how to prepare
  • Review aftercare options and resources for ongoing support


You’ll also receive:


  • Printed or digital quality of life assessment tools to use at home
  • Access to pain scales and comfort assessment charts
  • A pet loss and grief support resource packet


Please note: While a physical examination will be performed, this consultation focuses on guidance and comfort care. Medical treatments or prescriptions may require follow-up with your primary care veterinarian.
