Berkshire Veterinary Hospital
Pittsfield, Massachusetts
General Info
Berkshire Veterinary Hospital in Pittsfield provides specialized veterinary advice based on pet aging and climate response to support Massachusetts families through all care stages. The initial phase of appointments involves collecting detailed lifestyle and behavior information including appetite levels, sleep patterns, social interactions, gait analysis, activity levels, and emotional responses. Examinations involve oral assessments weight monitoring joint rotations temperature sensitivity checks and cardiac evaluations. The tracking of spaying/neutering milestones alongside puberty and adult weight stability occurs simultaneously with the monitoring of senior onset and breed-specific or weather-related health issues. Berkshire Veterinary Hospital delivers an intricate array of services including diagnostic testing, core and elective vaccinations, dental care, pain evaluations, mobility coaching, nutritional advice, and parasite control. Services adjust their frequency and depth according to age mobility and local climate factors including spring allergy response summer heat precautions and winter inflammation reviews. The planning process might encompass specialized schedules designed for teenage development stages, adult health maintenance, or initial treatments for aging pets. Owners obtain detailed care logs alongside follow-up objectives and behavior-based pacing information. Families might monitor weight limits while modifying recheck intervals in colder seasons and utilizing stress monitoring applications for older pets. Busy homes alongside senior pets and multi-pet households managing staggered timelines can access flexible scheduling and remote follow-up services. Pet owners throughout Pittsfield and wider Massachusetts receive reliable wellness planning from Berkshire Veterinary Hospital which personalizes care according to their pets' age, activity levels, and seasonal needs.

Made an appointment to have my dog put to sleep - huge mistake. This place is in humane. I watched my dog die in front of my gaging on his own vomit while we tried to get someone to help. When the vet came back she grabbed the crate he was in and threw it from the room into the hallway. We waited in the room and no one returned. I paid my bill $160 to kill the dog by drowning him in his own vomit because they overdosed him on a sedative. 15 minutes later I got a call that I could come back to see him. WTF?! Called but they are too busy to discuss - I felt this was a good way to warn people of the absolute lack of regard for life.

Horrible experience there. Been 3 times all 3 times was treated so rudely.. and it wasn’t just me. Bought my pup in to be neutered and was told I could get him the next day ! I’ve never heard of this ecspecially since I dropped him for 8 am... when I voiced my concerns the women totally disregard them and tried to bring my pup in .. I’ve owned many animals and I’ve never heard of this!! And they never mentioned when I had him there two weeks prior ! Needless to say... my pup wasn’t neutered today... I wouldn’t recommend them.

Called when our own vets office was closed being a Friday night and my sweet baby Pooka had her 2nd seizure in 24 hrs. The woman that answered the phone was compassionate and very helpful and got us in to see a dr without any problem. The women in the front were friendly and pleasant to deal with as was Dr. Makuc, the vet, we saw that day. The fact that they took us in and treated Pooka as though she's been a patient means the world to me as my dog is my heart. Thank you Dr.Makuc and staff

When my dog got very sick when we were visiting in the Berkshires we needed a veterinarian in a hurry. We brought him in as an emergency at the facility that was closest, and were told that they couldn't see him. We then found Berkshire Veterinary Hospital, and they fit him right in. Unfortunately he needed to be hospitalized for 5 days. During that time we spoke to several of the doctors on call. Each one took time to answer all of our questions and concerns. Our dog received wonderful care the entire time that he was in the hospital, and through his recuperation after he was released. We are grateful for their care, not only of our dog, but of us!

Berkshire Veterinary Hospital is excellent! We took our dog there from another Vet Clinic in the area for a second opinion on a double tooth extraction. Not only did they get him in quickly, they were very thorough and in the end stated he did not, in fact, need those 2 teeth removed at this time, and may not ever need them removed. They removed a small "slab" of tooth instead, saving our dog anesthetic, an overnight stay and the pain of extraction, as well as saving us over $850.00. Thank you Dr. Makuc, Cathy Hall and the staff of Berkshire Veterinary Hospital, our new Vet!

My experience is they charge high rates and select the most expensive procedural care options and/or drugs when administering animal care. In addition, their estimates for cost of care do not match the final costs when bills are presented.This establishment places the highest priority on generating revenue while providing animal care in a county setting for your pet. It is a veterinary practice that I do not recommend.

To Bob413--Yes, Berkshire Vets can be pricey, no doubt. I have been bringing my dogs to them since 1998, and believe me, you get what you pay for. I have never experienced anything but kindness, concern, and tender care for my pets. They have gotten me through cancers, and other emergencies. They call me with concerned well being checks, and being open 24/7, if I have a dog spending the night there I can call at 3 AM if I want to, and see how my fur baby is doing.My main doc, Dr. John Makuc, is simply incredible. I've had dogs since 1972, and no one else compares to him for concern, knowledge, and compassion. There will be no one else for me and my dogs--ever!!!

I have been to Berkshire Veterinary Hospital since 2002 and they have always provided our pets with the best of care. This year they have stood by ourside through our pet Puddims surgery and diagnosis of cancer, available 24/7 when we needed to order her pain medication and when we called for her to be seen whenever there was a change. October 1 God decided she needed to go to kitty heaven and we received the support to make that final decision. Little did we know within less than a month we would again need to make the same decision for our cat Big Eyes when he needed to be seen on a emergency basis late at night and needed to join Puddim in kitty heaven. There was no doubt in our mind that the stray we took in our home yesterday would go to Berkshire Veterinary Hospital for her check up and shots. Their office was accomodating to our schedule even though today is Sunday. I highly recommend them to anyone that has pets because they not only treat our pets who are our children, but also are there to provide the education and support to us when we need it the most.

I have been bringing my pets to Berkshire Veterinary Hospital for many years. One in particular had a very rare condition that would have ended her life early and might have escaped detection had it not been for the vigilance of her doctor. From those working in the reception area to each and every vet there I have nothing but the highest regard. Each and every visit, for whatever reason, with whichever animal was managed thoroughly, caringly & professionally. Through the care provided to keep my pets well, to the care they needed when they were not,we received received focused and clear information about their condition and what all our options were in their treatment. Sometimes I pushed the envelope, wanting & needing to do everything possible. But when it was time to let go, we were given every consideration when bringing in a dear one for the last time. As a nurse I have often reflected upon the need for similar caring and concern from physicians caring for us humans. And sure the cost of veterinary care is not cheap. However, consider this. All of the training, time, technology & much of the medicine involved in veterinary care is identical to that used in our care. Yet it is a fraction of the cost of human medical care which sadly is often delivered with far less of the compassion I have come to expect at Berkshire Veterinary Hospital.

I highly recommend them to anyone that has pets because they not only treat our pets who are our children, but also are there to provide the education and support to us when we need it the most.

I have been bringing my pets to Berkshire Veterinary Hospital for many years. One in particular had a very rare condition that would have ended her life early and might have escaped detection had it not been for the vigilance of her doctor. From those working in the reception area to each and every vet there I have nothing but the highest regard. Each and every visit, for whatever reason, with whichever animal was managed thoroughly, caringly & professionally. Through the care provided to keep my pets well, to the care they needed when they were not,we received received focused and clear information about their condition and what all our options were in their treatment. Sometimes I pushed the envelope, wanting & needing to do everything possible. But when it was time to let go, we were given every consideration when bringing in a dear one for the last time. As a nurse I have often reflected upon the need for similar caring and concern from physicians caring for us humans. And sure the cost of veterinary care is not cheap. However, consider this. All of the training, time, technology & much of the medicine involved in veterinary care is identical to that used in our care. Yet it is a fraction of the cost of human medical care which sadly is often delivered with far less of the compassion I have come to expect at Berkshire Veterinary Hospital.
