PERMISSION FOR EUTHANASIA, NECROPSY AND DISPOSAL OF REMAINS
Owner/Agent (print name): _________________________________________________
Case Number:___________________
As owner or agent of the animal(s) present for this case, I authorize the Veterinary Diagnostic
Laboratory (VDL) staff to proceed as follows:
Place Label Here
The decision to proceed with euthanasia, necropsy or cremation is an important one. Please consult
with the diagnostician about the following options. Please be aware that ashes can be returned by the
cremation service that you select , but remains or other materials from or with the animal (e.g. collar,
ID tags, hair from animal, etc.) cannot be returned once received by the VDL (see #4 below). We do not
provide clay paw prints, nor can we allow anyone to make them after the animal is in Necropsy due to our
biosafety and biosecurity policies.
Pathologist:_____________________
Submitting Vet/Clinic/Investigator: ___________________________________________
Date:___________________________
Animal ID/Name/Species: _________________________________________________
1. _____ Euthanasia: I authorize the VDL to euthanize/kill the animal(s) using humane,
approved procedures.
(for SDI/Research only) DATE OF SCHEDULED EUTHANASIA: ________________
2. Necropsy (autopsy):
a._____ I authorize the VDL to complete a necropsy and to allow the examination to be used for teaching and diagnostic purposes within
the College of Veterinary Medicine.
b. _____ I decline the option of necropsy.
3. Research:
a._____ I authorize the use of my animal(s) to enhance research programs. Research investigators will frequently learn more
about disease processes by utilizing blood or tissue samples from affected animals. I consent to the collection of post mortem samples in
order to contribute to future improvements in animal or human health.
b. _____I decline the option to use my animal(s) for research purposes.
4. Disposition of animal remains:
a._____ I authorize the VDL to dispose of the remains using MASS cremation. I understand the remains/ashes cannot be returned to me.
b. _____ I assume responsibility for selecting and arranging INDIVIDUAL cremation of the remains of the animal(s). I understand that the
cremation service will return the ashes to my vet clinic or to me according to the agreement I make with them. I understand that I have 5
business days to provide the VDL with the information needed to submit the animal for individual cremation to the outside provider of my
choice or it will be mass cremated.
c. _____I understand that if I do not make a cremation decision today, the VDL will hold small animal remains (dog, cat and other small
species) for 5 business days. Large companion animal remains will not be held unless specific arrangements are made with VDL
personnel. If I do not provide specific instructions, the animal remains will be disposed of using MASS cremation (ashes will not be
returned to the owner/agent).
5. Rabies Testing:
a._____ This is NOT a rabies examination. I certify that to the best of my knowledge, the above animal(s) has/have
NOT bitten a person or another animal in the past 10 days and the animal(s) has/have NOT been exposed to rabies.
b. _____This is a rabies examination. I understand that if the animal is confirmed positive for rabies by Minnesota Department of Health,
INDIVIDUAL cremation will NOT be allowed due to risk of exposure. If the rabies status cannot be determined by testing due to an
unsatisfactory sample, release of remains for individual cremation will be decided on a case by case basis.
6. Fees: The costs of euthanasia and necropsy have been explained to me. I understand these costs will be added to my account, and by affixing
my signature, I accept responsibility for payment of my account in full.
