San Diego Humane Society’s Pet Loss Support Group provides an environment where thoughts and emotions can be shared with those in similar circumstances.   Sessions are led by a licensed social worker and are open to those ages 10 and up, including pet parents who are considering or preparing for euthanasia.  Sessions are usually about an hour and a half in length. 

All sessions will be held virtually. Access to a computer or phone with a camera and microphone is preferred for participants. Sessions will be held via Zoom and log in information will be included in your confirmation and sent closer to the session with a reminder.

There are no fees for the sessions; however donations to help with providing this valuable service are greatly appreciated.

Please have pictures of your pet to share during the sessions.

Reservations are required and can be made on-line or by emailing edu@sdhumane.org.

Please note: Due to the nature of the cause of death of some pets, content shared during the sessions may be disturbing.
