We adopted Lucy, a redbone coonhound 5 years ago and she has and is the love of our lives. Scottsville Vet is wonderful giving rescue dogs a chance to live with loving forever homes... we are retired and had never had a dog before. Without a doubt, this has been a wonderful addition to our quiet life. Thank you, Scottsville Vet Hospital!!!

Sorry but I love this place. We have adopted three animals from here and no issues. So many complain about the vet, we rarely ever have seen him. We see the techs and they have been nothing but wonderful. The girls at the front desk are great . Seems that some have had problems, for that I'm sorry. No place is perfect, not even the mighty Lollypop. We had major issues with a dog we adopted from there. Them losing their status was purely political and ridiculous. The place isn't a mess and the people there truly care for these animals. It's always busy, so the naysayers really have no effect on their intent to bandwagon the hate for this place.

People need to remember, the animals come from HIGH KILL shelters. These kinds of shelters put several dogs/cats in the same kennel/cage. They, also, aren't going to test these animals, let alone treat them. Yes, some/most of the animals, who are rescued by Scottsville, come "perfect", but, some don't. I adopted a puppy from Scottsville who came up from Georgia. She came with kennel cough. I wasn't surprised, I expected her to have "something", considering where she came from. I took her back to Scottsville. They treated her and me with compassion and great care. They got down on the floor and had her all wiggly, during our visit. We went back for a follow up, and she was completely healthy. This was three years ago, in May. She has grown to be the youngest of my three very spoiled dogs. She is happy, healthy, and "spirited". I wouldn't want her any other way! My sister was so impressed by my Daisy (named Melody when I adopted her)and the experience I had, she adopted a puppy, two years ago, who came from Tennessee. She had the same experience and treatment as me. We both are VERY happy with our additions. As far as the bad comments of the condition of the shelter, no shelter is perfect. Take a walk through Lollipop. I have. They have, sometimes, two or three, as many as four dogs in the same kennels. There are dried feces on the floors. There are quarantined dogs... I never saw volunteers in the kennels playing with the puppies, like my sister and I saw, when we picked out her Jennie, at Scottsville. (Jennie was even one of the featured dogs in one of the contests) It goes without saying, I enjoyed my experiences with these people. I can't adopt any more animals because of where I live. If I could, I wouldn't hesitate to come back here. My sister may be back. She just lost her dog, adopted before we were aware Scottsville existed. When/if she's ready to adopt again. She said she will come back to Scottville.

I adopted my dog, Duncan from Scottsville in February of 2016. When we brought him home, he showed signs of kennel cough. We brought him back to the hospital and the care was excellent. My dog got the pills he needed, at no cost to us. After a few days he cleared up, and his personality began to shine. This lovable little boy soon needed an equally active dog sibling, so my family and I came back to Scottsville in search of our next companion. Coincidently, the dog we took home was in the same kennel as Duncan. Daisy (previously Jan) is the most wonderful addition to our family. Adoption staff took amazing care of us for both adoptions, leaving me nothing but joy with my two dogs. I'd recommend this rescue to anyone, including my brother who went and adopted a shepherd puppy not too long ago. Wonderful experiences with great people. Please remember that these dogs come from many situations, not always living happy or healthy lives. Rescue is always a risk, sick dogs, just like people, can go undetected in certain situations. Every animal should get the opportunity to live in a home where they are loved and spoiled. Thank you Scottsville for helping match my family with the best dogs!

Over the past several years my family has adopted three dogs from scottsville and have never had any issue. All three dogs were healthy and happy. One of which lived 18 years with NO health issues. What people need to understand is ANY animal can get sick. Any cold can turn into something worse. To blame a shelter that has only every wanted to save animals and give them a good life is ridiculous. They take in animals from high kill shelters to give them another chance at finding a loving home.. that sounds like a rescue to me. It's awful that this organization has gotten a bad rep over a few situation that can happen with any shelter. I used to volunteer there and the animals are constantly taken out of cages for walks and play times with other animals. I will continue to recommend scottsville to anyone looking to adopt a loving dog from an amazing place.

With regards to recent news, I really don't know what shenanigans can be played with the not-for-profit status (financials? avoidance of certain regulations/standards?) but we've got 2 great dogs from these folks as far back as 2004, and as recent as 2015. Had a concern with health of the latest initially and they saw us 2x with no cost to us. Turned out to be nothing. I hope they take care of all customers/pets as they did us. Always seemed clean whenever we were there. Passionate volunteers walking dogs etc. They put a lot of effort bringing pets from southern states...cant imagine its simply for profit...or ill will. Hoping its a very small percentage of bad experiences...they adopt out a lot of pets... I hope things get straightened out and they can continue to find homes for pets...thats what it should be about.

I adopted from here and have a great dog These dogs are rescued from high kill shelters and therefore you should expect the odd health issues. When I first got my dog his back legs wouldn't work from being in the crate for so long ,now he runs around the yard like Usain Bolt. They are doing a tough job. I will adopt from them again.

let me be clear I love the two kittens I adopted,.....but this place is such a scam. I paid $450 for adoption fees which say it includes spay/neutering, lol yeah right. i brought them in and was told I had to pay for pre-blood work and extra for anesthesia, which they needed for procedure, (should that not be included?). Also when I brought them for their 2 week check up, they got booster shots (another $50). which I had to pay for since they didn't give it to them when I initially adopted them ( which would have been included). when my little boy got his shot he jumped like it hurt him and 2 months later still has a small squishy lump where they injected him. oh, my story is not over. when I got the kittens I was told they had been medicated for ring worm because of the mother cat, but were cleared when I picked up.....well now my 9 yr old cat has ring worm. after paying 120 to find that out, (at a actually good vet place), guess what I have ring worm....

My boyfriend and I were very nervous to adapt a dog from scottsville after hearing soooo many bad things about them. However, we also had friends and family who loved their experience there. So we decided to go and look and fell in love with a dog. She actually had heartworm when she arrived at scottsville so we were even more nervous. Scottsville treated the heartworm for free, and now we have had her for a while and she is healthy and happy! We felt the staff there was very caring with the animals and the vet techs are so knowledgable! Nothing but a positive experience, people need to remember that these animals come from horrible conditions and that Scottsville does what they can. Unfortunately, it's impossible to save everyone.

My cat had not been eating or drinking for 4 days she would just lay on the floor. She seemed to be getting worse so I called my vet. Unfortunately they are closed on that day so I called this vet since they were closer to my home, they told me to bring her right in. After the vet checked my cat he determined that my cat had been hit in the hind quarters by he said a car because she was sore in that area. He could not go further with treatment unless I put $250 down, $500 down to do xrays and blood work.If I had $500 I would gladly have given it, I put $250 down thats all I could afford. He put her on an IV and medicine. She had to stay the night. I went to picked her up the next day and as the assistant was bringing her out she noticed a puncture wound on her neck. ( isn't this something the vet should have caught since he did examine her) The assistant told me just keep an eye on it and I brought her home. The nexted day I checked the wound and there was green fluid oozing from it. I called the vet and ask if I could put peroxide on it or an antibiotic on it and she said no. But for another $50 I could bring her in again. I called my vet. I explained what was happening and what Myself and cat went through and she told me to use peroxide twice and see if that helps. Five days later the wound was healing and my cat was eating and drinking. I brought my cat to my vet and she told me the wound was close to her jaw and that's why she was not eating or drinking. I understand that vets want their money up front but to misdiagnose something from their hind quarters have been hit to a puncture wound in the neck that his assistant caught makes me wonder the creditability of this vet.
