We've taken our pets to A Breed Apart for over 12 years. Even after we moved farther away we continue to take them because they are all so awesome! They are open and honest and don't suggest doing things that cost an arm and a leg for very little gain or life improvement for your pets. I appreciate the candid relationship we have had over the years. Read Less

I adore this veterinary! We switched from a well known veterinary clinic in town 5 years ago and immediately wished we had made the switch sooner! We are often able to get in quickly (today I got home from work and my pug wasn't moving well, and I called and was able to get in ONE HOUR LATER! They also bundled the visit with her annual visit since she was close to being due.) The exams are more thorough then any I've experienced, the waits are short, and the prices are incredibly reasonable. And the care is top notch--they seem to adore my dog almost as much as I do! I have recommended this place to others and everyone who has gone there has switched. Don't hesitate to try it! Read Less

We started going to A Breed Apart over 10 years ago based on a recommendation from a friend. Since that time we've gone here for numerous surgeries, impromptu appointments, and yearly checkups for our Bulldog and have come to know the entire staff as an extension of our family. A Breed Apart offers the best service and prices we've been able to find and if there is a service they cannot provide, they point you to the best specialists possible. We continue to recommended this vet to anyone looking because it's frankly the best Vet Clinic in town. Read Less

My cat is 16 years old, and recently went through a health trifecta... This is an extremely busy practice, so for regular checkups, appointments need to be made months in advance. However, they always find a way to squeeze necessary appointments in around the margins. The staff is talkative, very pleasant, and the vets are all careful and mindful of the needs of our animals and ourselves. This is the first practice I've ever been to where I am completely vet-agnostic. It's not because I don't care for my pet, but because I've had the opportunity to client with two of the three partners, and find that their level of care is equal. I trust everyone I've ever interacted with at this woman-owned business, and look forward to booking appointments a year in advance, if necessary. Read Less

Our oldest dog, Duncan, had a sudden acute case of "I don't feel good."  He was all hunched over, could barely move that morning and yelped (not the royal "Yelped"--no opposable thumbs, right?  I also cut off his internet access for his abuse of YouTube cat video privileges) when I gently touched his right side. A Breed Apart, who is our go-to doggy doctors, was able to get us in later that afternoon.  Our vet and her assistant promptly got us into an exam room at the appointed time and did their thing.  Perhaps it was the adrenaline of being in the exam room with other barking dogs and animals nearby or the rectal thermometer, but perking up and feeling better amazingly ensued.  (Duncan, that is. Although I did ease up when I reminded myself that the thermometer was likely not for me). Some additional poking and prodding (of Duncan) and a couple prescriptions - - including a refill for another one of our pampered pooches - - and we were out the door. We have always been very happy with ABA's doctors and staff.  They always do a thorough and caring exam and give good information and advice. Also, I believe their fees and medication costs are very reasonable. For Duncan's exam and the three medications, the bill was less than $75. I wish we could take our kids there. But alas, the dogs are better behaved. 5 bones (stars) for ABA!  Woof! Read Less

All three of the vets and the staff at A Breed Apart are wonderful! I've gone there for a few years so have visited for routine care, as well as a cancer surgery in one dog, congestive heart failure in another and very compassionate end of life care. Their fees are very reasonable. Love these folks! Read Less

I noticed that most of the reviews were dog reviews so as a cat (and turtle)owner I thought I would put my two cents in. I moved here eight years ago and brought my pets to a Breed Apart at the recommendation of my sister and my mom, (owners of five cats and a dog between them), because they highly recommended them. I have to say I haven't been disappointed. They were very caring and went out of their way to make special considerations for my mom who was very elderly. In those eight years one of my moms and one of my cats became very sick and had to be put down. In my moms case they came in on a Sunday on short notice when they were closed when my moms cat was suffering with seizures and dying. They were very compassionate as if we and the cat were a member of the family. In my cats case he was young and suddenly came down with lymphoma and got very sick quickly. They, as someone else said, laid out the situation and all of my options in a kind manner but without sugar coating them which made the bad situation easier to deal with. Currently I have a 21.5 year old cat and they are very good at weighing risk vs benefit as to whether to bring her in or spare her the stress of a visit. They trust my assessment of her (as I must be doing something right)and will take time to discuss things over the phone with me as I treat her at home with meds and subcutaneous IV fluids for her mild kidney failure and arthritis. I have dealt with all three doctors as I usually just ask for the next available appointment and I have  the utmost trust in all three of them as well as their staff. Oh, and the turtle. I only had to bring one in once because I suspected pneumonia. While not specialists the doctor I saw (I forget which one) had done her homework before my appointment by consulting a specialist at UW as well as the internet refreshing herself in the latest in assessment and treatment of turtles with pneumonia. I cant say anything bad about them. Read Less

I took my dog to another vet for 2 years when I first moved here. The experience was always fine. Nothing bad at all, but nothing to be too excited about. I didn't really ask around, but I started hearing more and more about A Breed Apart. A few of my coworkers who are surgeons had dogs with serious problems requiring surgery. The surgeries were performed at A Breed Apart, and they couldn't be happier. They also noted how reasonable the pricing was for their dog's care. They didn't feel like they were getting fleeced at all.So when it was time for Jackson's annual checkup, we established care at A Breed Apart. They took fantastic care of his and answered all of my detailed laundry list of questions without hesitation. I was very happy with the switch, especially because I feel happy establishing care with vets that I would feel comfortable taking my dog in the case of an emergency. Read Less

The staff and vets at A breed apart are so nice, patient and friendly. We are first time dog owners and they take the time to explain everything to us.  We have a sensitive, high energy boxer who absolutely loves going to the vet because they take such great care of her. I would highly recommend all three vets at a breed apart.  We've seen every one of the vets since our dog has had allergic reactions or swallowed bathroom items and A Breed apart quickly got her in for an appt and resolved the issues.  We've used them for checkups, shots, emergency and spay and every visit has been the best!

I've been taking my dog here since we got him, so he's been here for check-ups, shots, health issues, and to be neutered.  Every time I've been the vets were great.  I think we've seen all of them and they're all wonderful with my dog and know what they're doing. Read Less

My dog is my life.  As evidenced by the pics I have representing me.  Have I become one of those parents that live vicariously through their children (aka, dogs?)... I may have...But I digress.This should give you some indication of the love I have for this canine creature, and hence there's a PRESSING need for making sure that she gets THE BEST ABSOLUTE treatment ever.And this is where the fantastic team of "A Breed Apart" comes in.  Completely friendly staff always treats Sofia like their own pup, cheering her on, giving her treats when they do any procedure, and frankly everytime she's sick or has some kind of infection (damn rabbit turds that Sofia loves to eat) they're more than ready to treat it.  Also, they're the only vets that I feel comfortable calling at 1 am because my dog is limping, and they don't' give me the indication that they're pissed off because I just woke them up on a Saturday night.I highly recommend them!!!
