Almost 2 months ago we lost the best dog we have ever had, George. Our story began when George became ill with an autoimmune disease when he was 8 years old. But, thanks to Dr. Fuller, Dr LeBlanc and all of the great staff at Hope we had 4 additional years that we didn't think we would get with our sweet boy. The good people at Hope have been there with us through every sickness, surgery, and emergency. Several times on this journey we thought George might not pull through but, the staff at Hope never gave up on him. They knew how much we loved George and I believe they came to love him too!! Over the past year George's body obviously was breaking down more and more, he took more medicine than we did and treatments weren't as effective. However, inside his broken body was still our George who loved cuddles, belly/hip/ear rubs, kisses, barking at the FedEx trucks and laying in the kitchen watching me cook spaghetti (yes, he did get a plate, it was his favorite!). George turned 12 on July 13th and the next day he became very sick. My husband and son rushed him to Hope and it became evident that this time he wouldn't be coming back home with us as he had so many times before. Dr. LeBlanc and his staff were there and took care of him until the end. Words can't express how much we appreciate everything that they did for our George over the years. George was sick but, he lived a great life and we wouldn't have trusted his care to anyone else. We could never replace George but, when the time is right we will open our hearts to another pup that needs us just as much as we need him/her. So, Hope Animal Clinic....we will be back!!Read Less
