I took my boy in for a normal check up because of his bladder, I was appalled hearing a woman who was called Bree besmirching one of her coworkers in the public area, not only that but she then was very short with me about something I couldn’t understand that I had apparently done wrong, the man that she was talking to seemed to be under her and started hassling me as well, after all of this I will never return what a terrible experience, if you’re reading this please take your loved one somewhere else that has a safe and friendly environment.

Breeders beware, do not use this office for OFA’s. After repeatedly trying to resolve this matter with the office manager it seems that they do not care about the quality of care that they provided and are standing by poor and sloppy work with complete lack of attention to details. Proper positioning for OFA x-rays is the difference between a good rating and a borderline dysplastic. I signed sedation waivers, sent my dogs fasting with the expectation that if a good image could not be taken, they would sedate. Instead, I received images of my dogs hips tilted, knee caps not aligned, and torsos twisted. They were rushed, sloppy, and had absolutely no attention to detail. The argument that “the OFA will still accpet them” is asinine. A professor will still take an assignment that’s been rushed and directions not followed, but you’re going to earn a C or D grade. My dogs were at their clinic from 8 in the morning till after 4 in the afternoon. You’re telling me they couldn’t find the time to handle these with care? I’ve sent these images to a dozen other professionals and every single one came to the same conclusion without me giving my opinion prior. They have to be redone and they cost me over a thousand dollars. This office does not care about its clients and I have warned many local breeders and will continue to spread the word. The first picture I posted is a near perfect x-ray, exactly what it SHOULD look like. The spine is straight, the femurs are straight, the knee caps are pointing up. The rest of the images are ones that kennel care took and are standing behind, regardless of the obvious errors. You would have to be blind to tell me you can’t tell the difference. Read Less

I went to 4 different vets that told me that my dog's cough was everything but the issue I was saying. I told them my dog ran through a field of foxtails and was sneezing violently and then coughing for months. I was constantly dismissed. Finally I came home to Arizona and got to see the amazing people at Kennel Care and they truly listened. Not just to me but to my Ruby. Dr. Lind is incredibly compassionate and passionate about your baby and never dismisses your input and thoughts. She truly listens. She performed a test for a less invasive procedure and never once prescribed an antibiotic without a cause and I love this. She then performed an exam under anesthesia and uncovered a bacteria that was conclusive with our suspicions. She immediately scheduled a bronchoscopy with a very talented surgical internist (Dr. Greene) that extracted a horrific foxtail they allowed us to keep as proof of how terrifying foxtails can be to our beloved fur babies. Thanks to all of the incredible doctors, assistants, admins and support staff at Kennel Care my darling baby is breathing peacefully and sleeping at my feet mere hours after extracting the most horrific thing I have ever seen in my life. I have Cystic Fibrosis and the fact that these doctors really listened and understood my dedication to my companion's breathing has literally changed my life. Thank you so much to Dr. Lind, Dr Greene and Dr. Tuttle for giving my baby the first peace she has felt in months. All of the staff at Kennel Care is epic. I have no words for the compassion, kindness and love we felt today. Thank you ALL so much Read Less

I have waited to write this as I wanted to calm down. I had been going to Kennel care for years. I loved it. I loved Dr. Brandt and the front desk people and offc manager Nathan. Dr. Brandt moved out of state and Dr. Tutle joined the group. While I liked Dr. Tutle the front office changed. Never got the welcome feeling. While Nathan the office manager tried, the day came when one of my girls was sick and I needed help. I called as an emergency. I was flatly told sorry, they couldn't see her. This was during the week. I was told to take her elsewhere. I explained she needed to be seen, but the girl on the phone had no compassion. I got sooo angry I told her no problem I would be changing vets. The office changed after Dr. Brandt left. I did get a call from Nathan stating he was sorry for call and of course bring my girl in. I thought long and hard and in the end, worried what would happen if Nathan was off and something happened. I am sorry that we had to change vet's but as with any doctor office your front offc staff and make you or kill you. I have heard from many people who loved Kennel care they too are not happy.I have found a new vet and not only is vet great but the front office is warm, welcoming, and goes out of their way to make me and my girls feel welcome. I also asked in an emergency during open hours would they ever turn me away and the answer was absolutely not. Read Less

Our pet Schnauzer "Bear" was diagnosed Lymphoma on 8/8/2016 by Dr. Hudman at Kennel Care in Chandler. He was prescribed Prednisone and I was told he had 30 to 60 days to live.  Hudman also recommended chemo therapy, which I declined. On 8/28 our pet started experiencing, what we thought was pain. On two evenings, my wife even slept with him on the floor to help comfort him. When I initially talked to Dr. Hudman he indicated dogs didn't experience pain with Lymphoma, if anything it would be like humans have the flu bug. On 8/29 I called his office 1st thing in the morning and left a message for Hudman to call me. At 4pm and not hearing back, I called again only to talk to a girl that got a little testy me saying he returns his calls after 5pm. I never heard back so 2 days later on 8/31 I called again and because of the tone in my voice, I was immediately transferred to the office manager Nick. By the time the call ended Nick understood how upset I was about not receiving a call back but more so how concerned I was about Bear. After another 2 days I never heard from their office at which point a friend of mine referred me to another animal hospital. I contacted them, set up an appointment and requested that they have the medical records on both of my dogs transferred from Hudman's office. Lord and behold within 20 minutes of the request, I then received a call from Dr. Hudman. How convenient. Even though his apology sounded sincere, his justifications didn't make sense.  I no longer trusted him or his staff to entrust the lives and welfare of my pets. There was no excuse for their lack of professionalism and sincere concerns for my pet's welfare. Perhaps they are disorganized, perhaps they were upset they weren't earning thousands of dollars for chemo therapy or perhaps they really lack a sincere interest in the welfare of my pets. Whatever the excuse or rationality, they will never attend to any of my pets and I will never recommend their medical services to any pet owner.My appointment was today at the Alma School Animal Hospital and I visited with Dr. Christian. After examining my dog and asking me a lot of questions she prescribe a slight pain killer for Bear which will help him feel more comfortable for what remaining days he has left. Hudman never prescribed any pain killers! When it's time we will bring him in and have him euthanized by them. In conclusion, Hudman and Kennel Care for whatever rational, cause undue stress to both me and my wife and God knows how much pain Bear had to live through for a few days by not returning my calls and attending to his needs. After what we just experienced with them, I know they didn't have any sincere interest for Bear's welfare. I wouldn't recommend Dr. Hudman or Kennel Care to anyone for any reason.Regretfully,George Abernathy Read Less

Deserves a zero star rating.  I have gone to Kennel Care for 16 years.  I lost count of the pets that they have seen of mine.  I have lost count of the people I referred to them.  I will never step foot in this clinic again.  The care they gave my dog is unthinkable and they should be ashamed.  i adopted two dogs from Serbia that I rescued from the side of the freeway May 16.  After paying all of their vet bill in Serbia, their air transportation, they arrived July 22.  Mother and puppy (3 month old).   The next day I took both dogs into KC and Dr. Hudman said they were fine just underweight.  No tests were performed at this time.   I reported two days later that Norman, the puppy, was sneezing and eyes watering.  Hudman said just a something from the flights.   I worried about Norman so took him in on Thursday, 6 days after arriving.  They had me leave Norman at 9 am.  I called at 11:30 AM and was told no one had seen him.  I was not told this was just a drop off appointment.  I spoke with Dr Hudman later and he told me to come in at 5:30...it was evident to me that Norman had clearly not been worked up until I arrived so this already traumatized puppy sat in a cage for a long day.  I was told he had parasites and a few other things.   That was the last KC saw Norman.  He was at the emergency clinic 3 times.  I called KC the following Monday and Dr. Lind, who had never seen Norman, called me saying she felt this could be rabies.   I called to clarify a few days later about the rabies because this is a serious diagnosis.  The office manager called back, not a physician saying this was a strong possibility.   I asked if I could bring Norman in and was told "no".  Ultimately Norman died.....I found a new wonderful veterinarian who was his champion at the very end.  Norman did not have rabies but distemper.  If your vet will not be there for you through the rough times with a sick dog then what is the point?  Tests should have been ran on day one.   Norman survived on the side of the freeway for his first few weeks of his life, in a Serbian veterinary cage for a month and at a Serbian rescue with 300 dogs for a month.  Norman survived AZ 13 days.   Unforgivable!!!

Can I give less than one star? I was house sitting who uses kennel care. We needed the vet in an emergency. During regular business hours they told us they were closing in 40 minutes and to take the dog to an emergency clinic. At the emergency clinic not associated with kennel care at all the vet who took us in made mention on being on her way out the door when we walked in. She stayed with the hurt dog from about 5:45 until 9:30 that night. To be honest I would have expected that from Kennel Care as that is supposed to be the dogs home vet. However, after looking at other comments I am not the first customer to be told to go somewhere else in an emergency. Honestly it is vet clinics like this that give all vets a bad name. Thankful that not all businesses are run this way, and some vets will stay late to help a hurt animal. Read Less

Our pets have been patients of Kennel care for over 13 years. They have seen us through a restorative surgery after our little Buddy had been attacked. He suffered from what we thought was allergies or sinus infection or worse a tumor. He was very tired,  wasn't eating, we really thought he was on his way to the other side. After weighing options we had Dr. Lind perform a procedure that truly gave us back our Buddy! They have boarded our dogs for us on several occasions and they have always taken excellent care of them.  They groom our Buddy each time needed, as always excellent service! Most recently they spade our little Miss Kyra. I had my fears as she is a bit older, once again Excellent care! They called the next day to check on her, and me too :) I realized after watching her sleep they took the time to trim her nails (a task we struggle with) without me asking them.

I am new to the area and went to Kennel Care with my dog for the first time in November. They were highly recommended. The well visit went fine no complaints. Yesterday morning my dog was very sick. He had been up all night retching and had blood in his stool. I called Kennel Care to get him in to be seen at 9:30 in the morning. They said that although he definitely needed to be seen they were too busy to squeeze him in. They suggested I go to emergency which I did. I will never go back to them. If a vet can't see your pet in an emergency during normal business  hours I have no use for them. That is completely unprofessional. Perhaps those that gave the excellent reviews were never in  my situation. Read Less

A few yrs ago one of our dogs was really sick. We were going to another vet in Ahwatukee who just kept running test after test. Our vet bill was almost $1,000 that yr., and still no explanation as to what was going on. Family members were telling us that it might be time to put our precious little girl down.... Instead a friend of  mine suggested we take her to see Dr. Hudman  at Kennel Care. I researched him on the internet and decided to take her in for a visit. One visit later and an Rx, my little girl got a 2nd chance at life. His diagnosis and his prescription for her, saved her. I only wish I had taken her there sooner. This is why I recommend Kennel Care. Read Less

My one year old German Shepherd had a limp in his back leg for close to three weeks.  When he stopped eating and just laid in his bed all day, I brought him in. First visitMet with Carol Lind.  She seemed very friendly, and was very thorough with her exam.  Took X-Rays which she said looked fine, ruling out hip dysplasia (which later turned out to be false because I took him to another two different vets which diagnosed him with minor hip dysplasia.  However, I understand symptoms can arise later on in life, so that might not have been her fault).  She said it was likely that he pulled a muscle, or tweaked something.  But just to be on the safe side, she said it was possible that he had Aspergillus.  In order to test for it, we had to pay $90 for the test, and $70 for overnight shipping.  Given no other choice, and since when I asked her if there were any other possibilities and she said no, I went ahead with the test.$78 for the first X-Ray, $61 for the second X-Ray, $46.50 for the consultation, and $11.50 for the meds, grand total came out to be $357Most places waive the initial consultation fee, and most places charge X-Rays for as little as $40.  The insane prices should have been a red flag, but I was oblivious.Well, the test came back negative, and my dog was getting worse so she told me to bring him back in.  Second visitThis time, I was told that it had to be valley fever.  Total cost for the titer and shipping came out to be $181.  Once again, I had no choice but to agree since my dog already lost 8 pounds, and I was desperate to get him better.  And again, test came back negative.I guess they finally felt bad, because they called me and offered a free consultation.  I was busy, so my mom brought him.  I told her that if she was offered another blood test on my dog, tell the person to shove it up their butt. Third visitAnother X-Ray was taken (no charge), and this time Dr. Hudman looked at it and immediately diagnosed it as Panosteitis.  He prescribed some Rimadyl, and my dog got better within a week.  Keep in mind, XRays were taken SEVERAL times, and no one else was able to diagnose it.  Given that Panosteitis is extremely common in larger breed dogs, I am not sure if the other vets were incompetent or just trying to rack up charges on miscellaneous tests.  So, in case you missed it, I was and still am EXTREMELY unsatisfied with the vets that work here, with the possible exception of Dr. Hudman (since on my invoice, it showed that he signed off on shipping of the Aspergillus test.  But then again, he might not have looked at the X-Rays). I would avoid coming here at all costs.  But if you do, request Dr. Hudman, as the other vets are useless. Read Less

We have boarded our English Bulldog at Kennel care for a few years, he has a few medical needs and they have been very attentive to him.  When he got a case of "the poops" while boarded they called to let us know, did an exam and made sure he was OK and prescribed him medicine to clear up his situation.  We were only charged for the boarding & medicine, not for the exam.  This was more than we expected and made us feel very reassured when we needed to leave him there while we were out of the country.Dr Brandt has been very caring with our little basset hound, while doing a surgery a vet tech actually felt a lump that they removed on her thyroid that ended up being cancer.  If it had not been found it could have spread quickly throughout her body.    Pudge thanks you!

We have taken our pets to Kennel Care since the day we moved here from Baltimore in 1992. Our pets have always received understanding and loving care from Dr. Hudman and his entire staff. Dr. Hudman is the most dedicated and caring veterinarian we have ever known. We have, sadly, experienced the grief of losing 4 of our beloved pets to old age, cancer or some incurable illness and Dr. Hudman has handled each of those sad events with professionalism, empathy and caring, even to somehow finding time in his busy schedule to send us sincere handwritten notes of condolence in each case. We would not consider seeing someone else in the care of our pets. From the front office staff to the kennel staff to Dr. Hudman and Dr. Lind, Kennel Care is head and shoulders above any other veterinary clinic in our experience. In an emergency, we would drive by 20 vet clinics to get our pets to Kennel Care for treatment. Read Less

Obviously not. When we picked her up her left leg was injured and they ""just didn't know what happened"". When a dog is being looked after appropriately injuries do not occure.

I have been a ""patient"" of Dr. Hudman and Dr. Lind since 1998. Since that time I moved 1st to North Scottsdale and now reside in Queen Creek and though it would have been easier to find a vet in the immediate area, I chose to remain with Dr. Hudman, Dr. Lind and their team. The genuine care and concern made it a no brainer. Sadly, I lost my baby ""Ben"" this week after a 4 month battle. He was only 8. Dr. Hudman and his team did everything they could and then some to save him, they cared about Ben as if he were their own. I'm here to tell you that this is the vet you want on your side if it comes down to the wire. Dr. Hudman fought for Ben as if it were to save his own life, I took Ben there practically every day to be checked and though Ben lost his battle, he knew he was loved by everyone there, they showed him that each time they saw him, and that meant the world to me and to him. I have 3 more babies at home, they will all continue to be patients at Kennel Care. I came on this site to write an email to Dr. Hudman and his team to thank them for all they have done for us through this, these dogs are my children, the loss is beyond painful, so picking up the phone has been out of the question. But instead of an email address I found this and what better way to say thank you than to tell everyone what an incredible office this is. I'd drive my babies hours if necessary to make sure they were in the best hands and the best hands and the kindest hearts are at Kennel Care. I can personally guarantee this. Read Less

Breeders beware, do not use this office for OFA’s. After repeatedly trying to resolve this matter with the office manager it seems that they do not care about the quality of care that they provided and are standing by poor and sloppy work with complete lack of attention to details. Proper positioning for OFA x-rays is the difference between a good rating and a borderline dysplastic. I signed sedation waivers, sent my dogs fasting with the expectation that if a good image could not be taken, they would sedate. Instead, I received images of my dogs hips tilted, knee caps not aligned, and torsos twisted. They were rushed, sloppy, and had absolutely no attention to detail. The argument that “the OFA will still accpet them” is asinine. A professor will still take an assignment that’s been rushed and directions not followed, but you’re going to earn a C or D grade. My dogs were at their clinic from 8 in the morning till after 4 in the afternoon. You’re telling me they couldn’t find the time to handle these with care? I’ve sent these images to a dozen other professionals and every single one came to the same conclusion without me giving my opinion prior. They have to be redone and they cost me over a thousand dollars. This office does not care about its clients and I have warned many local breeders and will continue to spread the word. The first picture I posted is a near perfect x-ray, exactly what it SHOULD look like. The spine is straight, the femurs are straight, the knee caps are pointing up. The rest of the images are ones that kennel care took and are standing behind, regardless of the obvious errors. You would have to be blind to tell me you can’t tell the difference. Read Less

I went to 4 different vets that told me that my dog's cough was everything but the issue I was saying. I told them my dog ran through a field of foxtails and was sneezing violently and then coughing for months. I was constantly dismissed. Finally I came home to Arizona and got to see the amazing people at Kennel Care and they truly listened. Not just to me but to my Ruby. Dr. Lind is incredibly compassionate and passionate about your baby and never dismisses your input and thoughts. She truly listens. She performed a test for a less invasive procedure and never once prescribed an antibiotic without a cause and I love this. She then performed an exam under anesthesia and uncovered a bacteria that was conclusive with our suspicions. She immediately scheduled a bronchoscopy with a very talented surgical internist (Dr. Greene) that extracted a horrific foxtail they allowed us to keep as proof of how terrifying foxtails can be to our beloved fur babies. Thanks to all of the incredible doctors, assistants, admins and support staff at Kennel Care my darling baby is breathing peacefully and sleeping at my feet mere hours after extracting the most horrific thing I have ever seen in my life. I have Cystic Fibrosis and the fact that these doctors really listened and understood my dedication to my companion's breathing has literally changed my life. Thank you so much to Dr. Lind, Dr Greene and Dr. Tuttle for giving my baby the first peace she has felt in months. All of the staff at Kennel Care is epic. I have no words for the compassion, kindness and love we felt today. Thank you ALL so much Read Less

I have waited to write this as I wanted to calm down. I had been going to Kennel care for years. I loved it. I loved Dr. Brandt and the front desk people and offc manager Nathan. Dr. Brandt moved out of state and Dr. Tutle joined the group. While I liked Dr. Tutle the front office changed. Never got the welcome feeling. While Nathan the office manager tried, the day came when one of my girls was sick and I needed help. I called as an emergency. I was flatly told sorry, they couldn't see her. This was during the week. I was told to take her elsewhere. I explained she needed to be seen, but the girl on the phone had no compassion. I got sooo angry I told her no problem I would be changing vets. The office changed after Dr. Brandt left. I did get a call from Nathan stating he was sorry for call and of course bring my girl in. I thought long and hard and in the end, worried what would happen if Nathan was off and something happened. I am sorry that we had to change vet's but as with any doctor office your front offc staff and make you or kill you. I have heard from many people who loved Kennel care they too are not happy.I have found a new vet and not only is vet great but the front office is warm, welcoming, and goes out of their way to make me and my girls feel welcome. I also asked in an emergency during open hours would they ever turn me away and the answer was absolutely not. Read Less

Our pet Schnauzer "Bear" was diagnosed Lymphoma on 8/8/2016 by Dr. Hudman at Kennel Care in Chandler. He was prescribed Prednisone and I was told he had 30 to 60 days to live.  Hudman also recommended chemo therapy, which I declined. On 8/28 our pet started experiencing, what we thought was pain. On two evenings, my wife even slept with him on the floor to help comfort him. When I initially talked to Dr. Hudman he indicated dogs didn't experience pain with Lymphoma, if anything it would be like humans have the flu bug. On 8/29 I called his office 1st thing in the morning and left a message for Hudman to call me. At 4pm and not hearing back, I called again only to talk to a girl that got a little testy me saying he returns his calls after 5pm. I never heard back so 2 days later on 8/31 I called again and because of the tone in my voice, I was immediately transferred to the office manager Nick. By the time the call ended Nick understood how upset I was about not receiving a call back but more so how concerned I was about Bear. After another 2 days I never heard from their office at which point a friend of mine referred me to another animal hospital. I contacted them, set up an appointment and requested that they have the medical records on both of my dogs transferred from Hudman's office. Lord and behold within 20 minutes of the request, I then received a call from Dr. Hudman. How convenient. Even though his apology sounded sincere, his justifications didn't make sense.  I no longer trusted him or his staff to entrust the lives and welfare of my pets. There was no excuse for their lack of professionalism and sincere concerns for my pet's welfare. Perhaps they are disorganized, perhaps they were upset they weren't earning thousands of dollars for chemo therapy or perhaps they really lack a sincere interest in the welfare of my pets. Whatever the excuse or rationality, they will never attend to any of my pets and I will never recommend their medical services to any pet owner.My appointment was today at the Alma School Animal Hospital and I visited with Dr. Christian. After examining my dog and asking me a lot of questions she prescribe a slight pain killer for Bear which will help him feel more comfortable for what remaining days he has left. Hudman never prescribed any pain killers! When it's time we will bring him in and have him euthanized by them. In conclusion, Hudman and Kennel Care for whatever rational, cause undue stress to both me and my wife and God knows how much pain Bear had to live through for a few days by not returning my calls and attending to his needs. After what we just experienced with them, I know they didn't have any sincere interest for Bear's welfare. I wouldn't recommend Dr. Hudman or Kennel Care to anyone for any reason.Regretfully,George Abernathy Read Less

Deserves a zero star rating.  I have gone to Kennel Care for 16 years.  I lost count of the pets that they have seen of mine.  I have lost count of the people I referred to them.  I will never step foot in this clinic again.  The care they gave my dog is unthinkable and they should be ashamed.  i adopted two dogs from Serbia that I rescued from the side of the freeway May 16.  After paying all of their vet bill in Serbia, their air transportation, they arrived July 22.  Mother and puppy (3 month old).   The next day I took both dogs into KC and Dr. Hudman said they were fine just underweight.  No tests were performed at this time.   I reported two days later that Norman, the puppy, was sneezing and eyes watering.  Hudman said just a something from the flights.   I worried about Norman so took him in on Thursday, 6 days after arriving.  They had me leave Norman at 9 am.  I called at 11:30 AM and was told no one had seen him.  I was not told this was just a drop off appointment.  I spoke with Dr Hudman later and he told me to come in at 5:30...it was evident to me that Norman had clearly not been worked up until I arrived so this already traumatized puppy sat in a cage for a long day.  I was told he had parasites and a few other things.   That was the last KC saw Norman.  He was at the emergency clinic 3 times.  I called KC the following Monday and Dr. Lind, who had never seen Norman, called me saying she felt this could be rabies.   I called to clarify a few days later about the rabies because this is a serious diagnosis.  The office manager called back, not a physician saying this was a strong possibility.   I asked if I could bring Norman in and was told "no".  Ultimately Norman died.....I found a new wonderful veterinarian who was his champion at the very end.  Norman did not have rabies but distemper.  If your vet will not be there for you through the rough times with a sick dog then what is the point?  Tests should have been ran on day one.   Norman survived on the side of the freeway for his first few weeks of his life, in a Serbian veterinary cage for a month and at a Serbian rescue with 300 dogs for a month.  Norman survived AZ 13 days.   Unforgivable!!!

Can I give less than one star? I was house sitting who uses kennel care. We needed the vet in an emergency. During regular business hours they told us they were closing in 40 minutes and to take the dog to an emergency clinic. At the emergency clinic not associated with kennel care at all the vet who took us in made mention on being on her way out the door when we walked in. She stayed with the hurt dog from about 5:45 until 9:30 that night. To be honest I would have expected that from Kennel Care as that is supposed to be the dogs home vet. However, after looking at other comments I am not the first customer to be told to go somewhere else in an emergency. Honestly it is vet clinics like this that give all vets a bad name. Thankful that not all businesses are run this way, and some vets will stay late to help a hurt animal. Read Less

Our pets have been patients of Kennel care for over 13 years. They have seen us through a restorative surgery after our little Buddy had been attacked. He suffered from what we thought was allergies or sinus infection or worse a tumor. He was very tired,  wasn't eating, we really thought he was on his way to the other side. After weighing options we had Dr. Lind perform a procedure that truly gave us back our Buddy! They have boarded our dogs for us on several occasions and they have always taken excellent care of them.  They groom our Buddy each time needed, as always excellent service! Most recently they spade our little Miss Kyra. I had my fears as she is a bit older, once again Excellent care!

My one year old German Shepherd had a limp in his back leg for close to three weeks.  When he stopped eating and just laid in his bed all day, I brought him in. First visitMet with Carol Lind.  She seemed very friendly, and was very thorough with her exam.  Took X-Rays which she said looked fine, ruling out hip dysplasia (which later turned out to be false because I took him to another two different vets which diagnosed him with minor hip dysplasia.  However, I understand symptoms can arise later on in life, so that might not have been her fault).  She said it was likely that he pulled a muscle, or tweaked something.  But just to be on the safe side, she said it was possible that he had Aspergillus.  In order to test for it, we had to pay $90 for the test, and $70 for overnight shipping.  Given no other choice, and since when I asked her if there were any other possibilities and she said no, I went ahead with the test.$78 for the first X-Ray, $61 for the second X-Ray, $46.50 for the consultation, and $11.50 for the meds, grand total came out to be $357Most places waive the initial consultation fee, and most places charge X-Rays for as little as $40.  The insane prices should have been a red flag, but I was oblivious.Well, the test came back negative, and my dog was getting worse so she told me to bring him back in.  Second visitThis time, I was told that it had to be valley fever.  Total cost for the titer and shipping came out to be $181.  Once again, I had no choice but to agree since my dog already lost 8 pounds, and I was desperate to get him better.  And again, test came back negative.I guess they finally felt bad, because they called me and offered a free consultation.  I was busy, so my mom brought him.  I told her that if she was offered another blood test on my dog, tell the person to shove it up their butt. Third visitAnother X-Ray was taken (no charge), and this time Dr. Hudman looked at it and immediately diagnosed it as Panosteitis.  He prescribed some Rimadyl, and my dog got better within a week.  Keep in mind, XRays were taken SEVERAL times, and no one else was able to diagnose it.  Given that Panosteitis is extremely common in larger breed dogs, I am not sure if the other vets were incompetent or just trying to rack up charges on miscellaneous tests.  So, in case you missed it, I was and still am EXTREMELY unsatisfied with the vets that work here, with the possible exception of Dr. Hudman (since on my invoice, it showed that he signed off on shipping of the Aspergillus test.  But then again, he might not have looked at the X-Rays). I would avoid coming here at all costs.  But if you do, request Dr. Hudman, as the other vets are useless. Read Less

I just had my dog spayed by Dr. Brandt yesterday, and I literally can barely see an incision mark (and it's only been one day). It's either my dog is a miracle dog, or the work she did was fantastic... probably the latter. Bottom line is, whatever these guys do, they do it well and they truly are the best of the best.

Dr. Hudman saved my dogs life on 2006! After 4 different vets, several diagnosis, 3 procedures, and thousands of $$$, Dr. Hudman, took the time to listen to me, as well as research her history. He called each previous vet to find out what they had to say other than what was in her file. Lilly had a type of allergy! With the right meds and care, Lilly was back to normal. Dr Hudman is by far the best vet I have ever been to in all my 20 years of owning pets. His staff is (stable-bonus) very friendly, and they always call the next day to see how we are doing. I LOVE his groomers too! I have two new dogs now and Dr. Hudman is still as gentle, caring, and genuinely concerned as he was the first day I met him in 2006. Thank you Dr. Hudman! Read Less

We have been taking our French Bulldogs to Dr. Hudman at Kennel Care for 10 years.  Dr. Hudman came highly recommended from several breeders and we couldn't be happier.  From general checkups, to phone calls at 2 am and early morning emergency c-sections, Dr. Hudman's knowledge, compassion and humility is the best I've ever experienced.  The rest of the staff is amazing too.  They treat their human and animal customers with care and respect.  Our dogs lover going to the vet!  5 stars is not enough.

We have taken our pets to Kennel Care since the day we moved here from Baltimore in 1992. Our pets have always received understanding and loving care from Dr. Hudman and his entire staff. Dr. Hudman is the most dedicated and caring veterinarian we have ever known. We have, sadly, experienced the grief of losing 4 of our beloved pets to old age, cancer or some incurable illness and Dr. Hudman has handled each of those sad events with professionalism, empathy and caring, even to somehow finding time in his busy schedule to send us sincere handwritten notes of condolence in each case. We would not consider seeing someone else in the care of our pets. From the front office staff to the kennel staff to Dr. Hudman and Dr. Lind, Kennel Care is head and shoulders above any other veterinary clinic in our experience. In an emergency, we would drive by 20 vet clinics to get our pets to Kennel Care for treatment. Read Less

I used to like them. I have 9 animals and visit often. They tried to charge a consultation fee 30 days after a consultation. I was never told of this fee originally. They are losing my business over $75. They pick and choose who they charge for services. I know for a fact, they don't charge the customer that referred me. Instead they make up charges for me. NO LONGER! Moving on to bigger and more reasonable. Read Less

Dr. Lynn is our vet and she is so caring and understanding to both our needs and our pets. I always know if I have a concern when it comes to any of our pets that Kennel Care  will get us in asap.

I have taken my pets to Kennel Care Vet Hospital for the last 18 years and have not had any issues with them. Dr Lind and her staff are very professional and have excellend bed side manner. Our oldest dog who was 18 years old was not eating anymore, could not see or hear and we had come to the point where we had to let him go. It was a very emotional time for us and they handled the situation with great ease and care. I would not see anyone else for our vet care. They have always informed me of the cost of all services and have reasonable rates compared to other Vet Hospitals. Excellent front desk staff and very knowledgeable doctors. Keep up the good customer service and care. It's obvious that they love what they do..!!! Read Less

We have been going to Kennel Care for over 11 years and we have never been disappointed with the service that we receive or the prices of the services. They work with you when you let them know that you are on a budget and they will try to keep the costs as low as they can without endangering your animals. They love kids and really enjoy it when the kids are involved in the care of their animals. I love Dr. Hudson, he is so caring and kind. I don't know why anyone would have a cause to write a bad review about this office. Read Less

I'm awestruck by the previous reviews... if you don't see the signs posted in EVERY room at Kennel Care requesting that you discuss fees beforehand if you have any questions .... well, I don't know what to tell you. Jeez. We don't love paying our vet bills either, but this is one of the responsibilities of a pet owner, just like picking up the poop. Kennel Care understands that you may not have the budget for every test and procedure; ASK FIRST, they're not psychics, they're vets. We've been going to this vet for years. We are always treated with the utmost respect, and so are our family pets. We recommend them to family and friends. Read Less

Took my dog in for debris in his hear. They took a swab and diagnosed the problem. Then the vet picked up my dog, said ""I'm going to go clean out his ear really quick, I'll be right back"", and left the room. She never asked if I wanted that service.. I wasn't given a choice.. She said she was leaving to do it an promptly left. Guess what was on the bill? a $15 charge for an ear cleaning that I was never given a choice about. This was my first time in with a new dog.. I'll be looking elsewhere for a permanent vet. A $105 bill for an ear yeast infection is ridiculous. Read Less

On my last visit my puppy made puddles everywhere, I tried to clean it up, but they were so nice about it and they took care of it. They have always been nice when we walk through the door, I would recommend this vet. office to anyone . I too can't believe the 1 neg. response (makes me think something was wrong with the dog). My other dog had to have surgery and they took such great care of him, there is no question that I would go back for anything. Dr. Carol Lind is the best, she has such a sweet heart - you know that this is what she should be doing with her life.

Our two Great Danes have been seeing Dr. Hudman since they were 6 weeks old. Our Danes are brother and sister and they are the rulers of our house, we are guests. Our male has had a couple of issues while he was growing up and had to go visit the amazing folks and Kennel Care. They have always treated our dogs and us with nothing but love and respect. I know when if I have to leave either Zoey or Brigadier there they will always get nothing but the best attention. They love the treats the front office staff give them and how they are loved. We drive 45 minutes just to see Dr. Hudman and his staff. If you are looking for a vet that will care for your animal and treat your animal as if it were there own, than this is the place. Read Less

I took my dog to Kennel Care based off of a recomendation and wish that I hadn't. I trusted the staff to follow the directions that I had left and also care for my dog using common sense. They over medicated my dog when I had verbally given directions and there were directions on the medication bottle. I assumed that since this is also a veterinary clinic that they would know better. Obviously not. When we picked her up her left leg was injured and they ""just didn't know what happened"". When a dog is being looked after appropriately injuries do not occure. Especially when they are in a kennel. I would not recommend taking any animal to this kennel. Unless you want your animal not look after and injured. Read Less

I have been a ""patient"" of Dr. Hudman and Dr. Lind since 1998. Since that time I moved 1st to North Scottsdale and now reside in Queen Creek and though it would have been easier to find a vet in the immediate area, I chose to remain with Dr. Hudman, Dr. Lind and their team. The genuine care and concern made it a no brainer. Sadly, I lost my baby ""Ben"" this week after a 4 month battle. He was only 8. Dr. Hudman and his team did everything they could and then some to save him, they cared about Ben as if he were their own. I'm here to tell you that this is the vet you want on your side if it comes down to the wire. Dr. Hudman fought for Ben as if it were to save his own life, I took Ben there practically every day to be checked and though Ben lost his battle, he knew he was loved by everyone there, they showed him that each time they saw him, and that meant the world to me and to him. I have 3 more babies at home, they will all continue to be patients at Kennel Care. I came on this site to write an email to Dr. Hudman and his team to thank them for all they have done for us through this, these dogs are my children, the loss is beyond painful, so picking up the phone has been out of the question. But instead of an email address I found this and what better way to say thank you than to tell everyone what an incredible office this is. I'd drive my babies hours if necessary to make sure they were in the best hands and the best hands and the kindest hearts are at Kennel Care. I can personally guarantee this. Read Less
