My daughter and her family were evacuated by helicopter from Denham Springs during the flood in 2016. Unfortunately the shelter was unable to house their little dog. I managed to get to the shelter and was stranded for several days due to continued flooding. To avoid trying to find a temporary shelter for their dog I decided to keep her with me in my car. We managed to endure the heat by occasionally running the ac in my car and parking under trees. We had plenty of food and water. The shelter volunteers were constantly checking on us. They contacted the vet here and told her about us. She immediately came over to check on our little dog (even offering any needed medical services) and urged, well, practically begged me to let her take Zelda (our dog) to her clinic. I refused, aware of the space available compared to the number of animals in need. After exhausting her attempts to change my mind she returned with food and other items for our dog. The kindness and compassion displayed by this vet are not only remarkable, but extremely rare. Zelda, my daughter and her family are all safe and sound thanks to the vet here and the shelter volunteers.Read Less
