I came to the Hoboken Animal Hospital after my chihuahua mix was bitten at the dog park. The amazing staff not only took incredible care of my little man, they were so sympathetic and gentle with me in a terrified, shocked state. Everyone there from the front desk to the nurses and vets were so compassionate with us. We are so lucky to have them in the neighborhood and thank them all so much for taking such good care of my little man in such a scary time. Read Less

I don't understand the negative reviews about this place.  Took my cat today and it was perfectly fine.It seems people are complaining about prices. My advice is to just ask ahead... they were completely transparent about pricing with me (literally gave me a printout) and you are not forced to do every treatment they have available for your pet's condition...1. I called ahead and they clearly explained to me prices in advance.2. There was no wait. I arrived on time for my appointment and went right in.3. The only mandatory fee is the office visit fee. Everything else, they ran all the prices by me and I chose which ones I wanted. Very transparent4. I was able to have a conversation with the doctor, exchanging questions about my pet, until all questions were answeredI will increase the rating if the medication the doctor prescribed for my cat ends up working.

My elderly cat's regular vet is in the Poconos where she was being treated for 3rd stage kidney failure.  While in town she began to crash - refusing to eat, moaning, weight had dropped to 6 lbs. and incontinent (for the first time in her life).  I called Hoboken Animal Hospital and they told me to bring her right in.  An examination and blood panel indicated liver involvement and an ultrasound  revealed liver cancer.  Hoboken Animal Hospital obtained the cat's records and consulted with the vet in the Poconos.  Ultimately my cat had to be put to sleep.  Dr Jimenez and her staff, particularly Lisa, Bonnie and Christine, were extremely supportive, sympathetic and professional.  They made a very difficult and upsetting day a little easier to bear.I highly recommend Hoboken Animal Hospital.  My visit didn't turnout as I'd hoped but I got to hold my cat while she passed and I said goodbye to a cherished pet.

Can I rate these mercenaries any lower rating?  A huge diagnostic testing bill is always the first proposition when you arrive with what appears to be a serious health situation . Like $1000 before even narrowing the diagnosis. They don't care about your dear pet; they don't care if you can afford the testing costs & possibly unjustified prescribed treatment of your pet; they only care about optimizing their profits any any cost. Took my Harry to Animal General in Edgewater for a "real" diagnosis after already being scammed for close to $400 . Walked out of Animal General with a clear pathway for diagnosis confirmation and a precise  treatment plan taking into account risks &  benefit at 50% price of the BS we got on Washington St.  Despite the convenience of a local vet, the well being of my babies at a fair price is most important. Hoboken Animal Hospital is not that place, for sure. Read Less

My cat got very ill after digesting something. I called 3 pet stores and they all turned me away because it was "too late" to walk in even after telling them it was an emergency. I called this place last and they told me not to worry to just rush the cat over. As soon as I walked in they took my cat and helped immediately. Dr. Doyle and his assistant were AMAZING. I asked them to give me a minute because my cat had pooped in the crate and all over the blanket and his assistant(wish I would have gotten his name) said not to worry he would clean everything for me and did so even the blanket, which was so nice. Everyone was so helpful and kind and attentive and I really appreciated it. Thank you. Read Less

‭Where is the ZERO stars button?? Anybody with a dog/cat please Stay FAR AWAY from this place!! They are the absolute WORST!! For months, they misdiagnosed my dog and were ultimately poisoning him with medication that was not for his condition and ultimately caused his condition to get worse than it already was. After thousands of dollars and no answers, Doctor Rich told me to put my dog down. (And handed me an additional $62 bill for his "expert" opinion). Completely distraught, I went to Oradell Animal Hospital and received a second opinion. He is now on medication for a manageable liver condition and is doing so much better. Thank god for the doctors there. It took them 20 minutes to figure out what Hoboken Animal Hospital couldn't in 4 months! We won't know the extent of the damage Hoboken did, but we're hoping for the best. Places like this should be shut down. Incompetent doctors who only care about the almighty dollar and not about the actual well being of your pet! Read Less

Last week I called the Hoboken Animal Hospital and they confirmed they are in the NJ Spay and Neuter Program. I confirmed with them that I have all required documents for the $20 surgery (NJ resident, Hoboken dog license, Adopted dog from registered NJ rescue). I reconfirmed this when they called me the night before the surgery. When I took my dog (Winston) in this morning they did all the paperwork, examined him, took him in the back, and then tried to tell me it will cost $390. They said it is because he is a brachycephalic dog (short nose). This felt like a bait and switch as they have even seen Winston before so they know what type of dog he is. I have now found a place in Hoboken that will do it for $20 (as will all of the other vets I now called). They wasted a lot of our time and they are advertising on the DoS website as a place to get the $20 surgery, which it seems they tried to get out of. On top of all of this, they charged me a $62 office visit for nothing. After talking to the NJ department of state they confirmed I need to be refunded. I had to go back in to get a refund! HUGE waste of time and energy. Avoid at all costs. Read Less

The morning started very frustrating taking in my puppy for a neuter not only were the staff very unfriendly they seem to have no compassion for animals. My husband brought my puppy and was greeted in a unprofessional matter by one of the clerks. They demanded for me as a registered owner to be present at the time of the surgery, I have simply asked if my husband can drop him off and I will follow an hour later to do paper work. As I went in, I was immediately greeted by a Nurse who first exclaimed to me that my HUSBAND was a "ladies man" again not only was this infuriating but it was out of conduct. She then babbled more about how nice my husband is and so on. WORD of advice, if you want to pick uo Men please do so at the bar or any other dating sites. UNPROFESSIONAL!

I have been going here for seven years , ever since adopting my rescue long haired mini Dachshund. I had an appointment yesterday and had googled to get the phone number when the YELP ratings popped up. I was so surprised that the rating wasn't at least a 4.5! The front desk staff are thorough and friendly. The staff and  techs and docs could not be more gentle to my boy, whether it's a wellness visit, grooming or teeth cleaning, etc. They are always patient and listen to whatever my concerns are, they always call the day after any shots or procedures to check on him. I could not be happier with Hoboken Animal Hospital and recommend them highly, especially Dr. Michelle Mills and Victoria the vet tech. Read Less

!!!STAY AWAY!!!! I brought my 3 year old perfectly healthy cat to get a microchip inserted and for a wellness visit to this vet. I am now down $600 and left with a sick cat. My cat can be feisty , I but have never had any issues with other vets in the past being able to handle him. They had no idea how to handle him and asked me if they can administer his chip/vaccines in the back and I agreed. As I was waiting I could hear him screaming from the waiting room. When they returned him to me in his crate he was shaking and sitting in his own feces. Whatever they did in the back caused him to poop himself. They told me that drowsiness and poor appetite could be a symptom of the vaccines for a day or two. I took him here on Monday. By Thursday my cat was still not eating, was vomiting, had diarrhea, was lethargic and not himself. I immediately took him to another vet in the area that concluded that he had developed pancreatitis which can be induced by extreme stress, or as a result of a traumatic experience. On top of all of this, they told me that the chip would cost $65 and then I would be charged for the wellness visit. My bill came to over $300. I will make it a point to make sure I spread the word about how terrible this vet is and to prevent any other pets from going to this vet. Read Less

If I could give them 10 stars, I would. I recently adopted a sweet senior tabby who is considered "special needs" due to a missing eye (she had to have removed prior due to an upper respiratory infection that was neglected at a previous shelter). When I noticed her other eye was red, teary, and she was sneezing, I brought her here for immediate attention. Mari (my cat) and I met with Dr. Mills. She was extremely thorough, patient, and answered any questions and concerns. She took the time to explain her test results and break down what her issues were. She prescribed eye drops and pills for Mari for two weeks. I was nervous about giving Mari her medication in pill form, and Dr. Mills offered to demonstrate as well as offer other options (liquid medication and she provided syringes). BEFORE doing any testing on Mari, the staff discussed cost options, etc., which I GREATLY appreciated because many vet offices just do various testing without explaining and discussing prior, and fork over a massive bill. The staff was very kind to both myself and my Mari. Excellent bedside manner and patience. Highly recommend. I plan on making Dr. Mills and the staff at Hoboken Animal Hospital Mari's permanent vet.

It almost feels wrong to write a review about the process of putting our sweet Mr. Lucky to sleep, but it feels right to give credit to the people who were there with us in a supportive manner until the very end--that being the staff and Dr. Jiminez, Vincent and Tamia.  Let me first begin by informing whomever is reading this, that our Min Pin suffered many ailments. At ages 5 and 7 he had cancer--both times it was removed by the doctors at Hoboken Animal Hospital. As a result, he was able to live a longer life and to our delight, we had more quality time with him. It was so blissful to have our puppy back, and healthy again.  It's the one thing that divides the good quality of life versus a not-so-good life. So, as a healthy dog again, we were able to move him out of our apartment to a house with outdoor space which was all his for roaming and prancing. He lived out the last couple of years at home (we hope he slept all day when we weren't around). He was such a good boy and waited for us all day while we worked in the city. He never had accidents until this past week. The elder years really crept up on us. And, for anyone who knows what I'm talking about, this was the stage of denial for us. We didn't want to see the grey under his chin, or his little leg shaking, or his eyes slowly changing to silver. We wanted to believe he was always going to be okay. But, we noticed lumps were starting to take over his little body. That was something we could not deny. He was constantly thirsty and cried at night because he couldn't get comfortable--he would shift and move from room to room hoping to find a comfy spot. One night this week, he was up all night whimpering (I gladly stayed up with him--he stayed up with us when we were out and about as a younger couple, so it's only right). This weekend, he was up again whimpering at 4:30am until around 8am. We alternated taking him out and giving him cookies, water and anything we thought might satiate him. But, he continued to cry and yelp in what we think was pain. The next few hours got worse, and that's when we called Hoboken Animal Hospital. My husband made the call in private, and then we gently hugged all three of us, and drove to Hoboken. It was not an easy ride. We were hysterical the whole way there, and each took turns holding our puppy and giving the last bit of love we could give.  The rest of the story I will spare the details, as this is where the moment is very private and unique to each individual.  I hope our experience helps you in your situation, and have faith that you can find the strength and courage to make a choice that is appropriate for you. We struggled with the decision, but the support and space we were given at Hoboken Animal Hospital is what I find comfort in. They were present throughout his life to also share the ups and downs of our sweet Mr. Lucky and I feel very fortunate to have had the pleasure to work with them in making the right choices for the quality of his life.

We took our cat for control after she was vomiting for a week. They did tests and told that she has no problems and we just need to change her food and give some medicine. They sold us expensive foods and 2 medicines. We paid almost $500. Literally 3 days later our cat collapsed in front of her litter box. We took her to hospital again immediately and they told us she have stomach cancer and needs to be put on sleep. While we were having our last moments with out cat they entered to room to ask another $500.Read Less

This place gets one star because this is where I adopted my cat, and I am grateful for that.BUT... Seems like they only care about how much money they're bringing in instead of taking care of your pet.For example, my husband and I needed somewhere our cat will be taken care of. We both thought the best place would be a vet. We were wrong!First. They locked her in a cage for 95% of the day. They claimed they let her out once... ONCE a day! (Which is very questionable)Secondly, I came back and I receive a medical bill, Why?! My cat is less then a year old, she's in perfect health and you're drugging her, without my consent! That was ridiculous!!!The doctors are extremely rough, they're in and out of the room. They don't even acknowledge the fact that you're a concerned parent for your pet. Nothing!Never again!

DANGER : would literally give them no stars if that was an option. took my puppy in for a small cut she got on the tip of her ear and they suggested that THEY CUT PART OF MY DOGS EAR OFF - rather than to just bandage it and give her medication. even after I asked that they bandage her so I can take her to her actual vet (this was an emergency and they were closest to home) they still pushed the surgery (which was $900 by the way) and told me that was my only option. I still made them just bandage it (which fell off in a matter of hours but according to them should have lasted 5 days) and took her to see her vet in the city who was flabbergasted that they even suggested such a thing. puppy got a proper bandage and medication that cures the ear issue and is doing great thankfully. this place was dirty (as I helped to wipe my puppy's blood off the floor and table, dust and dirt was coming off of everything) and the doctors are inadequate. will never take her here again. literally ever.Read Less

After bringing my puppy here for her check up / shots, and finding the establishment favorable, I decided to bring her back here for spaying.The operation was in early February and cost over $500. We were given meds and told to return in a few weeks to remove the outer sutures. The internal sutures we were told would dissolve after a few more weeks.She developed a hard lump around the bottom of her internal sutures which grew and became inflamed. We took her back and were given an anti-biotic which reduced the swelling and redness and were told it should go away within a month. In the back room, the technician could be overheard remarking at how unusually bad her lump looked.It has now been nearly 4 months since the operation and her lump has not decreased. In fact, it is now developing crusty scabs and her outer skin is now connected to her internal abdominal wall at this lump.Luckily it doesn't appear to bother her but I worry about possible future injuries, risks and infections. I'm also very frustrated as the dog came from a respectable breeder and overall has cost a lot of money and now has an unsightly red lump protruding from her belly.All of her internal sutures are clearly still present and can be felt under the skin. They have not even begun the dissolve as we were told they would. Online forums suggest the sutures should have dissolved within 3 weeks.Overall I am very dissatisfied with her surgery and subsequent follow up visits. The doctor has done nothing to belay my concerns and shows little regard for what is an unusual and concerning complication. Also, $84 for a follow up visit and ointment for a complication from a $500+ surgery is ridiculous. They should have comp'd the cost as it was their mistake in the first place.I will no longer take my dog to this vet. We'll be trying the Animal Infirmary of Hoboken next, as it has much higher reviews. Read Less

My advice is to just ask ahead... they were completely transparent about pricing with me (literally gave me a printout) and you are not forced to do every treatment they have available for your pet's condition...1. I called ahead and they clearly explained to me prices in advance.2. There was no wait. I arrived on time for my appointment and went right in.3. The only mandatory fee is the office visit fee. Everything else, they ran all the prices by me and I chose which ones I wanted. Very transparent4.

Can I rate these mercenaries any lower rating?  A huge diagnostic testing bill is always the first proposition when you arrive with what appears to be a serious health situation . Like $1000 before even narrowing the diagnosis.

Walked out of Animal General with a clear pathway for diagnosis confirmation and a precise  treatment plan taking into account risks &  benefit at 50% price of the BS we got on Washington St.  Despite the convenience of a local vet, the well being of my babies at a fair price is most important.

‭Where is the ZERO stars button?? Anybody with a dog/cat please Stay FAR AWAY from this place!! They are the absolute WORST!! For months, they misdiagnosed my dog and were ultimately poisoning him with medication that was not for his condition and ultimately caused his condition to get worse than it already was. After thousands of dollars and no answers, Doctor Rich told me to put my dog down. (And handed me an additional $62 bill for his "expert" opinion). Completely distraught, I went to Oradell Animal Hospital and received a second opinion. He is now on medication for a manageable liver condition and is doing so much better. Thank god for the doctors there. It took them 20 minutes to figure out what Hoboken Animal Hospital couldn't in 4 months! We won't know the extent of the damage Hoboken did, but we're hoping for the best. Places like this should be shut down. Incompetent doctors who only care about the almighty dollar and not about the actual well being of your pet! Read Less

Last week I called the Hoboken Animal Hospital and they confirmed they are in the NJ Spay and Neuter Program. I confirmed with them that I have all required documents for the $20 surgery (NJ resident, Hoboken dog license, Adopted dog from registered NJ rescue). I reconfirmed this when they called me the night before the surgery. When I took my dog (Winston) in this morning they did all the paperwork, examined him, took him in the back, and then tried to tell me it will cost $390. They said it is because he is a brachycephalic dog (short nose). This felt like a bait and switch as they have even seen Winston before so they know what type of dog he is. I have now found a place in Hoboken that will do it for $20 (as will all of the other vets I now called). They wasted a lot of our time and they are advertising on the DoS website as a place to get the $20 surgery, which it seems they tried to get out of. On top of all of this, they charged me a $62 office visit for nothing. After talking to the NJ department of state they confirmed I need to be refunded. I had to go back in to get a refund! HUGE waste of time and energy. Avoid at all costs. Read Less

The morning started very frustrating taking in my puppy for a neuter not only were the staff very unfriendly they seem to have no compassion for animals. My husband brought my puppy and was greeted in a unprofessional matter by one of the clerks. They demanded for me as a registered owner to be present at the time of the surgery, I have simply asked if my husband can drop him off and I will follow an hour later to do paper work. As I went in, I was immediately greeted by a Nurse who first exclaimed to me that my HUSBAND was a "ladies man" again not only was this infuriating but it was out of conduct.

!!!STAY AWAY!!!! I brought my 3 year old perfectly healthy cat to get a microchip inserted and for a wellness visit to this vet. I am now down $600 and left with a sick cat. My cat can be feisty , I but have never had any issues with other vets in the past being able to handle him. They had no idea how to handle him and asked me if they can administer his chip/vaccines in the back and I agreed. As I was waiting I could hear him screaming from the waiting room. When they returned him to me in his crate he was shaking and sitting in his own feces. Whatever they did in the back caused him to poop himself. They told me that drowsiness and poor appetite could be a symptom of the vaccines for a day or two. I took him here on Monday. By Thursday my cat was still not eating, was vomiting, had diarrhea, was lethargic and not himself. I immediately took him to another vet in the area that concluded that he had developed pancreatitis which can be induced by extreme stress, or as a result of a traumatic experience. On top of all of this, they told me that the chip would cost $65 and then I would be charged for the wellness visit. My bill came to over $300. I will make it a point to make sure I spread the word about how terrible this vet is and to prevent any other pets from going to this vet. Read Less

If I could give them 10 stars, I would. I recently adopted a sweet senior tabby who is considered "special needs" due to a missing eye (she had to have removed prior due to an upper respiratory infection that was neglected at a previous shelter). When I noticed her other eye was red, teary, and she was sneezing, I brought her here for immediate attention. Mari (my cat) and I met with Dr. Mills. She was extremely thorough, patient, and answered any questions and concerns. She took the time to explain her test results and break down what her issues were. She prescribed eye drops and pills for Mari for two weeks. I was nervous about giving Mari her medication in pill form, and Dr. Mills offered to demonstrate as well as offer other options (liquid medication and she provided syringes). BEFORE doing any testing on Mari, the staff discussed cost options, etc., which I GREATLY appreciated because many vet offices just do various testing without explaining and discussing prior, and fork over a massive bill. The staff was very kind to both myself and my Mari. Excellent bedside manner and patience. Highly recommend. I plan on making Dr. Mills and the staff at Hoboken Animal Hospital Mari's permanent vet.

It almost feels wrong to write a review about the process of putting our sweet Mr. Lucky to sleep, but it feels right to give credit to the people who were there with us in a supportive manner until the very end--that being the staff and Dr. Jiminez, Vincent and Tamia.  Let me first begin by informing whomever is reading this, that our Min Pin suffered many ailments. At ages 5 and 7 he had cancer--both times it was removed by the doctors at Hoboken Animal Hospital. As a result, he was able to live a longer life and to our delight, we had more quality time with him. It was so blissful to have our puppy back, and healthy again.  It's the one thing that divides the good quality of life versus a not-so-good life. So, as a healthy dog again, we were able to move him out of our apartment to a house with outdoor space which was all his for roaming and prancing. He lived out the last couple of years at home (we hope he slept all day when we weren't around). He was such a good boy and waited for us all day while we worked in the city. He never had accidents until this past week. The elder years really crept up on us. And, for anyone who knows what I'm talking about, this was the stage of denial for us. We didn't want to see the grey under his chin, or his little leg shaking, or his eyes slowly changing to silver. We wanted to believe he was always going to be okay. But, we noticed lumps were starting to take over his little body. That was something we could not deny. He was constantly thirsty and cried at night because he couldn't get comfortable--he would shift and move from room to room hoping to find a comfy spot. One night this week, he was up all night whimpering (I gladly stayed up with him--he stayed up with us when we were out and about as a younger couple, so it's only right). This weekend, he was up again whimpering at 4:30am until around 8am. We alternated taking him out and giving him cookies, water and anything we thought might satiate him. But, he continued to cry and yelp in what we think was pain. The next few hours got worse, and that's when we called Hoboken Animal Hospital. My husband made the call in private, and then we gently hugged all three of us, and drove to Hoboken. It was not an easy ride. We were hysterical the whole way there, and each took turns holding our puppy and giving the last bit of love we could give.  The rest of the story I will spare the details, as this is where the moment is very private and unique to each individual.  I hope our experience helps you in your situation, and have faith that you can find the strength and courage to make a choice that is appropriate for you. We struggled with the decision, but the support and space we were given at Hoboken Animal Hospital is what I find comfort in. They were present throughout his life to also share the ups and downs of our sweet Mr. Lucky and I feel very fortunate to have had the pleasure to work with them in making the right choices for the quality of his life.

DANGER : would literally give them no stars if that was an option. took my puppy in for a small cut she got on the tip of her ear and they suggested that THEY CUT PART OF MY DOGS EAR OFF - rather than to just bandage it and give her medication. even after I asked that they bandage her so I can take her to her actual vet (this was an emergency and they were closest to home) they still pushed the surgery (which was $900 by the way) and told me that was my only option. I still made them just bandage it (which fell off in a matter of hours but according to them should have lasted 5 days) and took her to see her vet in the city who was flabbergasted that they even suggested such a thing. puppy got a proper bandage and medication that cures the ear issue and is doing great thankfully. this place was dirty (as I helped to wipe my puppy's blood off the floor and table, dust and dirt was coming off of everything) and the doctors are inadequate. will never take her here again. literally ever.Read Less

I brought my beloved 21 year old cat Archimedes in this morning to put him to sleep.It was, of course, one of the hardest things I've ever had to do.I wanted to say that I saw Dr. Raum and vet tech Victoria (neither of whom I'd met before) who helped me through the process, and that they were wonderful and made the horrible thing I had to do so much easier.I've always had great experiences with the doctors and vet techs here. And your care, Dr. Raum and Victoria, will forever remain in my heart.Thank you for your kindness. Read Less

I simply cannot believe the reviews about Dr. Molly Raum. She and Dr. Sprague have taken such a amazing care of our dog after she was viciously attacked and suffered bite wounds all over her body and a virtual hole in her back leg. They have walked us through this process of healing for the last three months and have been informative and honest about everything. They even went so far as to not charge us for follow up exams as she had to come in almost once a week at one point. All the doctors, assistants and front desk staff have been wonderful to us....and we will continue to take our dog here. Read Less

After bringing my puppy here for her check up / shots, and finding the establishment favorable, I decided to bring her back here for spaying.The operation was in early February and cost over $500. We were given meds and told to return in a few weeks to remove the outer sutures. The internal sutures we were told would dissolve after a few more weeks.She developed a hard lump around the bottom of her internal sutures which grew and became inflamed. We took her back and were given an anti-biotic which reduced the swelling and redness and were told it should go away within a month. In the back room, the technician could be overheard remarking at how unusually bad her lump looked.It has now been nearly 4 months since the operation and her lump has not decreased. In fact, it is now developing crusty scabs and her outer skin is now connected to her internal abdominal wall at this lump.Luckily it doesn't appear to bother her but I worry about possible future injuries, risks and infections. I'm also very frustrated as the dog came from a respectable breeder and overall has cost a lot of money and now has an unsightly red lump protruding from her belly.All of her internal sutures are clearly still present and can be felt under the skin. They have not even begun the dissolve as we were told they would. Online forums suggest the sutures should have dissolved within 3 weeks.Overall I am very dissatisfied with her surgery and subsequent follow up visits. The doctor has done nothing to belay my concerns and shows little regard for what is an unusual and concerning complication. Also, $84 for a follow up visit and ointment for a complication from a $500+ surgery is ridiculous. They should have comp'd the cost as it was their mistake in the first place.I will no longer take my dog to this vet. We'll be trying the Animal Infirmary of Hoboken next, as it has much higher reviews. Read Less

My baby girl had a surgery at this hospital. The doctor was very trustworthy and genuine.The nurses were friendly and loving to my dog.The receptionist was so friendly and helpful! My dog went through a big surgery and was hospitalized, but when I picked her up from recovery, she was seemed happy, content, and well taken care of.I'm moving to Manhattan next week, but I plan to continue to visit this hospital.It's great! Highly recommend it. Read Less

They were great on my first visit with my cat Abbey. They were also good enough to allow me to foster a wonderful little cat named Misha. I was really impressed with the care they showed for both cats and how well they seemed to know Misha after having him for only a short time. My guess is that they will be my vet of choice for years to come. Read Less

Over the years, all my cats have been cared for here, and two of them actually came from the CAP organization in the building. It's a real "family doctor" kind of feeling.

this place is absolutely dispicable. they kill my dog!!!!!!!! do not ever go to this place ever. i took my dog in to get neutered and he died. they charged me close to $700 to kill my dog. then after they called telling me he was dying they still charged me for the procedure and refunded me for the medicine. they threw in the cremation for free...gee thanks you just killed my priceless bulldog. they said that the dog made it through the procedure and died in recovery however the dog was blue when they came to check on him and then tried cpr. how do you not notice a dog turning blue that is complete negligence. i am not only devastated by my loss but hope no one ever goes there again to have something similar happen to them. this place should not be allowed to be open it is appaling that it is. i am filing a formal complaint with the humane society to get this horrific place shut down. i will never be able to replace my dog but i hope by writing this i can save another dogs life Read Less

If you don't want something done they'll pressure you into doing it! Then in the end, cherry on top, all the paper work is screwed up and you're unsure exactly what they did to your poor animal but the bill is huge! Read Less
