I tried a new doggy daycare for my puppy Lucy yesterday, and I can confidently say she really…read moreenjoyed it. One feature I especially appreciated was that they offer both indoor and outdoor play areas, which is very important to me given our hot summers and the fact that I have a brachycephalic dog. She was completely worn out when she got home, which is always a great sign. I highly recommend this daycare -- the entire staff was friendly, accommodating, and made me feel confident that they genuinely care about both the dogs and their owners. Overall, it was a 10/10 experience.

She trained here as a puppy and goes to daycare (or "school") a few times a week. I've boarded her here a couple times, too.

She wants to come here and see Meredith and Kaley and all her doggo friends she's known since she was a pup. What a relief to have somewhere reliable, with people who care about you and your dog.

My new puppy, Shiner, was not interested in being the ideal dog. She was full of energy and had difficulty in paying attention. I tried everything I could possibly think of to help motivate her into a functioning member of my household. I spent 10 minutes on the phone with Meridith Caver of The Polished Pooch and knew she would be able to help. Meridith Caver is amazing. After the first session, Shiner was able to sit. Meridith is great at explaining what Shiner worked on during the day and what we should do at home to help further her training. We have learned how to make Shiner a part of the family, not the master of the house. We still have work to do, and we know Meridith will be there to help us alone the way. Shiner is a different dog since she started puppy school with Meridith. In the mornings when Shiner has puppy school/day camp, she is excited and knows where she is going. When she sees Meridith and Debra, she gets so excited to go and play. I feel very comfortable allowing my Shiner to go to puppy school/day camp w/ The Polished Pooch. The staff cares about your baby, just like you do!

Dr. Briggs is the best vet we've ever visited, hands down. Throughout the last few years, we ended…read moreup being a sort of hospice-care house when we had a cat diagnosed with lymphoma. She referred us to a local oncologist, who was (understandably) pricey. One of the many things our sweet cat needed was near-daily subcutaneous fluids, which are difficult to do. They allowed us to bring in our cat and his fluids bag, and they set up his drip for us free of charge. When we eventually lost him, they were incredibly supportive and kind. A couple years later, we ended up with a cat diagnosed with cancer (squamous-cell carcinoma) this time, and another who was FeLV-positive (from birth). Dr. Briggs was supportive of our decision to continue end-of-life compassion care for as long as their quality of life was maintained, and was more than willing to provide the appropriate prescriptions to manage their pain and other symptoms. She worked with the local compounding pharmacy to ensure we could get easily-administered liquid medications, so we wouldn't have to stress out our little ones with pills. When the time eventually came to say goodbye to each of those cats, Dr. Briggs made the time to be with us and compassionately administer the euthanasia drugs. She administers a sedative first, which allows for a more humane, restful passing. She and the staff at Southwind have been nearly as heartbroken as we were each time we lost a pet. Our other pets also love Southwind! We have one cat who has been incredibly healthy her whole life and only goes to the vet for her checkups, but because they are a Cat-Friendly practice, they understand how to manage her anxiety about the vet. Our dog LOVES going to the vet, and she always gets TONS of hugs, pets, and cuddles from Dr. Briggs and the technicians. We've seen Dr. Cooper and Dr. Mosely on occasion when Dr. Briggs has been unavailable, and we've had similar experiences with both of them. If you're looking for a vet in southeast Memphis, go to Southwind!!

Like Lisa, I recommend going elsewhere. This was our second visit in a few months. The vet was nice…read moreand thorough, and they are convenient. I thought they were a little expensive on the first visit, but this 2nd visit was very problematic. I took my dog for grooming. They originally said $45 for a puppy cut. So I scheduled. (For context, my regular groomer that came to my house was about $80.) Last night, they texted me asking for my rabies vax, which was done in another state. During my 1st vet visit, I had asked them to transfer the records, but I guess this wasn't done. Without the rabies vax, they wouldn't groom. So, I asked them to request records again, but if she wasn't up to date, I asked them to give her the vax. They wouldn't do a vax without a complete physical. I dropped my dog off and came home. As I was about to pull into my neighborhood, they called and said I needed to come back to sign a paper. So, I went back to sign. Then, they texted me an estimate for $248 (you can see from photo) for physical, bloodwork, all vaxes, and grooming. I said I didn't need blood work. So, they reduced the price to $205 (you can see from photo-but may need to click on it to see it fully). They later called and said my dog needed to be sedated to be groomed (never happened in the 3 years I've had her--she is tiny and has no teeth), and that they could only do a bath today. I went to pick her up, and they said that she was already up to date on rabies vax(!!) but gave me a TN tag. They first charged me $160. Then, when I asked about not needing the rabies and only getting a bath, she told me $210. I was stunned. How is it possible that I had to pay more for a bath with no rabies vax than a grooming with a rabies vax? And I had to pay for a physical when she already had her rabies vax, which they should have known from our first visit? So, basically, I woke up this morning thinking my dog would get a grooming for $45, but I left paying $205 for a bath, wasted time, and stress.
