Euthanasia

We understand that, for many of you, your horse is part of the family and that this is a very stressful and upsetting time.

The two methods for euthanasia of horses are by injection or by shooting. Both are humane methods and minimise any suffering for your horse. Due to the logistics of owning and carrying a firearm we are only able to offer the lethal injection, but for customers who prefer shooting, either of the cremation services we recommend below can arrange this.

Both Yorkshire Equine Crematorium and Neil Cartwright are able to provide a collection and cremation service and if you wish to have your horse’s ashes returned then this is also an available option.
