Meet Dr. Beth Kaiser and Lap of Love

If you are a pet owner you know the anguish we face when dealing with end of life decisions. When our Oscar told us it was time we called Avondale Vet Clinic to see if there was a service that could come to our home.  They told us about Lap of Love which specializes in veterinary hospice and in-home euthanasia. These decisions are never easy but from the moment we met Beth Kaiser, DVM the experience was kind, compassionate and thoughtful. Here I sit down with Dr. Kaiser and talk about Lap of Love that is now in some 35 states.  We truly hope this helps you and your family.  We could not recommend this any higher.  Meet Beth Kaiser who has such an interesting personal story.
Thanks for listening!
