When we moved back here with our little princess, Jasmine, I hated to leave our vet. We took her to a vet closer to our house for her shots and they were okay. Okay just isn't good enough when it comes to our baby. When it came time to board her for a weekend trip, we called Greenbrook. I was impressed from the minute we walked in the door! The place is tastefully decorated and very clean. It doesn't smell like wet dogs. Ms Kay, one of the vet techs, came out to pet her and kissed on her, and Jasmine warmed right up to her. They gave her time to get comfortable with her surroundings, and get to know her, before taking her back. They let us walk her back and see where she would be staying. We felt very comfortable leaving her there. We returned again when little Houndini broke her crate and tore a ligament in her hind leg and cut her belly up in the process of her great escape. Again, they were absolutely wonderful with her, and took the time to explain her injuries, care, and healing to me. Dr. McCain took the time to explain that some adopted pets never get over their abandonment, and suggested things that could help her. After she won the battle of the crate, and I gave up on trying to keep her in it, I called them in a panic after I came home to a chewed up bar, shredded sofa, pillows and trash all over the den. They recommended a Thunder Shirt to calm her, and also called another patient for recommendations on a pet sitter. The Thunder Shirt didn't work at all. A few days later, Kay called to follow up with us. Although I sincerely appreciate that, it's not feasible to take her to daycare every time I need to go to the grocery store or out to dinner. Their refusal to treat the anxiety with medication makes me wonder how many of their patients have wound up in shelters because parents can't deal with the destruction, and I can't bear the thought of how she must feel every time we leave her. I'm holding out a star based on that. We just returned again for shots. Ms. Kay still loved on her, and Kevin was great with her as well. I can tell Jazzy really likes Dr. McCain by the way her little tail starts wagging as soon as he walks in the room. Shots were very reasonable at $93. They are super friendly and it's obvious that they really love animals. They're not just showing up to get paid. I think for a normal dog, this place would be a wonderful vet's office to use. Unfortunately, with the severity of Jazzy's separation anxiety, which only seems to be getting worse, we're going to have to find a new vet who is willing to treat it. Read Less
