I don’t really know how to thank Mark enough.
I had never met this man but I knew I never wanted to put my dog to sleep in the vets as she hated it there. So I googled a private vets to arrange to have her put to sleep (a decision I know I had to make to put my dog out of pain)
So the 6th of December 2022 mark arrived at my house took his shoes off and had a warm presence about him and clearly had a heart and empathy and just straight away put me at ease. Saffy our 10 year old American bulldog was surrounded by all her toys a nice blanket and all the cards from her past birthdays plus a shell from the first beach she went to as a puppy. Saffy had been down for a couple of weeks but soon sprung up and seemed happy to see Mark. Of course he made a fuss of her and made me feel like I was doing the right thing though at the time it was a blur and so overwhelming.
Mark was so calm and nothing felt rushed or pressured. He was explaining how everything would work and gave us our time to say goodbye to saffy which was so hard especially when it’s your first dog.
I just remember how relieved her face was and so at peace when mark injected her and he said she will have no pain now and will feel so relaxed and know that your all there.
All of her pain and stress in her face went.
He wrapped her so delicately in a blanket like a baby and was carefully placed in the car.
I knew she was in safe hands and he would take care of her.
I think the nicest thing for me was when Mark sent me a card for our loss along with some forget me not seeds, some of saffy’s fur, a paw print and the most beautiful box with her name and ashes in. (Not even her own vets have sent a card to this day) Plus he even gave me a bracket from her tplo surgery she had which was holding her knee together, just another piece of her to cherish.
I will always be so grateful to Mark for making her last few moments so peaceful
and I would always recommend him to anyone and certainly would want him to take care of my future pets. He truly is an amazing human being. Thank you
