I love this vet. My cat has had a growth on her side for a few months. The two vets I took her to…read morebefore felt like they weren't communicating with me or were looking for a "quick fix" or drugs to throw at her in hopes the problem would be solved. Dr. Nancy Irvine is wonderful. She went over my cat's vet and health history with me very thoroughly before taking a blood sample and some skin scrapings for testing. She talked to me like I'm an intelligent adult and shared with me her line of thinking every step of the way. She answered my emails in a timely manner and always felt like she was presenting me with every option available. The diagnostic tests were kind of expensive as well as treatments and further testing, but my cat is my baby and I'd do anything to help her feel better. The facility is nice and clean with a big reception area and exam rooms. All of the staff I encountered are very nice and helpful. They even called me the day after my cat's growth removal to make sure that she was responding well to the medications she was given. I very much recommend them.

How can I give anything less than 5 stars to the rescue that likely saved our pup's life and then…read morewent on to introduce us to her? Two years ago, we decided to expand our family and since our cat hates all other felines...a pup it was. Our search began at petfinder.com which is how we found both our dog and Ladybugz K9 rescue. The family run rescue was very helpful, making sure to provide us with directions since their location seems to trick GPS. They work to get rescues from Amish puppy mills and from what I can tell, they do a fantastic job socializing the animals. In fact, when we walked into the area where the pups were, ours was excited to see us and standing on her two hind legs waving. Some of the other puppies were timid and it was explained that they had just been brought to the rescue the day before and they give them about 24 hours to get used to their surroundings and then they begin "hug therapy." In the two years since, we have been able to enjoy a happy, healthy, loveable dog...what could be better!

For years I refused to adopt a dog because i knew how much work went into them. Its just like having children. Long story short the time came to adopt a pup and I couldn't be happier! Roxie (rescue name Fiona) has been a blessing in my life. She just turned 3 in May and I can't imagine what life would be like without her. This rescue gave me a healthy active loving little girl on the fourth of July 2010 and to this day my little firecracker pup is spoiled rotten! I was told she was a pomeranian maltese - and it turned out she is pomeranian papillon which makes her even more fun!Thank you so much Ladybug K9 Rescue! I couldn't be happier

If you're looking for a veterinary staff that truly cares about your animal(s), this is the place…read moreto go! Dr. Sally has been our vet for years. She is so kind and personable. She explains things in great detail, which helps you understand your animal's current condition. Her staff is very accommodating and caring! You receive a "follow-up" sheet when you leave the office. This tells you about the animal's condition, any take-home medications and a run-through of what was done for the day. They always call the following day to check in on your pet- this is what sets them apart! You don't find that at other offices; their thoughtfulness sets them apart! The office has easily accessible parking and a beautiful storefront! I would highly recommend trusting your animal's health with Dr. Sally and her staff!

So I thought ok ill take care of and maybe he'll live even though that night he still wouldn't eat his formula.So next morning he was lying. there dying and was letting out this agonizing meow about every half hour which was breaking my heart.So I called them and asked if the tiny guy could be put to sleep,but all they cared about was charging me 50 some more dollars for that if I take home with me and bury myself but I didn't have 50 more to spend so I've had to listen to his dying yelps for almost a day now and they didn't even bother calling back at all .Talk about uncaring.

Took him in was not even home yet and my phone rings told me he had matted hair and would need to be cut closer no problem. I just want him to be groomed. The next call was about aggression and she couldn't finish him because he snapped at the blow dryer. The next phone call was come and get him. When I picked him up the bill was 45.00 higher then quoted for a dog my size. His hair cut is a mess. Uneven he looks sad. before I left she gave me a phone number to another groomer that does grooming to sedated animals You must be nuts to think that I would use anyone you recommend I was also told your dog is not a fit for our salon AKA Don't come back !

Patience with anxious dogs and following directions given by owners. My American Eskimo Australian…read moreShepherd mix is a rescue with acute anxiety issues. I explained that she needed constant reassurance and responded well to talking and petting, but she didn't respond well to be rushed or ganged up on like some salons do. She said they would do their best and kinda quit listening while worked with something on the desk. In about 2 hours received a text saying my dog done and we could pick her up, As soon as we were at the desk paying the girl stated our dog who I had told them was anxious tried to bite the groomer. I guess despite telling them that she had acute anxiety and needed lots of reassurance they overlooked that! My dog's cut was ok at first but, upon closer looks her cut was irregular. The left was cut and it was nice, but the right side was only washed and brushed. It wasn't trimmed like the other side. The girl suggested that the next time she has to get her hair trimmed, give her CPDs! My dog is NOT a biter and is not aggressive if given verbal reassurance and talked to by a confident person. So if you have a dog that has anxiety issues or fear, I unfortunately can't recommend The Barker Shop!

I set up an appointment online, but received a phone call because the appointment slot I made was not for a large dog. They got her in even sooner for a bath and brush only. We have never trimmed our Bernese Mountain dog ever because we enjoy her long hair and it's winter. We dropped her off and went shopping. Surprisingly they called early and said she was ready to pick up. She is always so excited when we pick her up so we didn't notice anything, but when we got home we noticed she had been fully trimmed. We were very disappointed that our long haired girl received a full trim for the very first time. Even her five inch long belly hair was shaved to a stubble and all of her long hair on her feet was gone. So I called to let the owner/manager know. She was apologetic and offered some money back but we didn't pay for a full haircut so I just wanted to let her know that we didn't receive what we had initially requested. The trim looked good, it's just not what we wanted. We will take our furry baby back there, but will make sure next time it's clearly understood what is wanted.
