Beatline Oaks Veterinary Hospital

About Beatline Oaks Veterinary Hospital

Beatline Oaks Veterinary Hospital is a locally owned small animal veterinary practice on Beatline Road in Long Beach, Mississippi, founded by Dr. Joey Kaletsch in 2003. Dr. Kaletsch earned his Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Louisiana State University in 1999 and previously operated the Animal Hospital of Diamondhead before establishing Beatline Oaks. The hospital is built around individualized attention and a calm, comfortable clinic environment designed to reduce pet anxiety during every visit.

The Beatline Oaks team understands that a pet's final chapter can be one of the hardest things a family faces. The hospital offers in-office euthanasia with a private room where owners can hold and comfort their pet during those last moments, and provides a sedative families can administer before the appointment to ease their pet's anxiety during the car ride. After a pet has passed, Beatline Oaks can coordinate cremation services so families can choose to have their pet's ashes returned at a later date.

What to Expect

Families contacting Beatline Oaks about euthanasia are guided through the signs that may indicate it is time, including chronic pain, inability to eat or stand, and loss of enjoyment in daily activities. The hospital can provide a pre-appointment sedative to help pets remain calm during transport. Once at the clinic, the veterinarian will administer a sedative followed by the medication that allows the pet to pass peacefully in a private room. Families may stay throughout or step away, depending on their wishes. After the procedure, Beatline Oaks can help arrange for the pet to be transported to a cremation facility where families can later collect the ashes.
