We had to wait Fri. and all weekend and he got very sick. Coleman was very nice and took very good care of him. He had to stay there all week. He has a wound that the bandages need to be changed 3 times a week for two weeks. Now we are 79 years old and this will not be easy for us. This clinic refused to change his bandages when he is their patient and we only went to Coleman because they told us to. I will not be using them anymore.

I have adopted two dogs and two cats from this shelter, all of whom are healthy and happy three…read moreyears later. PROS: The shelter itself is clean and modern, but very small compared to shelters in Austin and Dallas I have visited. You will not be overwhelmed. The staff is friendly and willing to offer plenty of advice and tips...unless you ask them about veterinary care. Anytime you ask a question about illness or disease symptoms and treatment, they say that they do not have a vet on staff (true) and might be sued if they give out veterinary advice (maybe true?). They have every kind of animal you could imagine, in every age, but they will not guarantee availability, temperament, health. They offer vouchers for spay/neuter for those who can't afford to pay the vet price, and offer pet food to those who are having an emergency. The adoption fee seems steep: $90 for a cat ($45 for fixed cat) or $150 for a dog ($75 for fixed dog), but it pays for the spay/neuter, microchip, rabies shot, booster shot, deflea, deworm. It is a good deal when you break it down. They accept unlimited volunteers, age 18 and up, and give volunteers a little class on how to do everything. Plus, they encourage volunteers to PLAY with the animals rather than CLEAN, which was super cool. Unlimited intake, no questions asked. Bring in your pet and sign a form. That's it. Canines, Cats, and Cabernet. 'Nuff said. CONS: My gripe with this shelter is that they are a kill shelter. However, they say that they are unlimited intake, have only five staff people, and take in five thousand animals each year. I'm going to assume that this is true, and if that's the case, they are doing very well for what they have, because they don't have a time limit on pets. Where I used to live, they kept animals for five days and then they were euthanized. Here, they say it's however long they can, depending on space and health. You can see how long an animal has been there on the paper cards on the cages, and I have seen some for one month, two, three. Hours are sparse. At the time of this writing, hours are Mon-Fri from one to five and Sat from one to four. A bit out of the way. Ten minutes from WalMart. 3016 Milam Drive, by Kohler. I kind of wish they would have some adoptions uptown some time. A guy can dream. No phone calls about the fate of the stray you brought in. They won't tell you if it's been euthanized or adopted. I kind of understand, and kind of don't. BOTTOM LINE: Website is http://www.ctsanimalcenter.org/, and they have all the animals' pictures there. I give them four of five stars.

I adopted my cat from this shelter and it was all good, but then i brought her back to get spayed…read moreand so they had took her all the way to dallas to get spayed and turns out she was already spayed and some how they forgot to document that she had already been spayed, so my poor cat was taken 2 hours away for no reason and then when we picked her up she had pissed on herself while she was at the shelter cause she was scared and they didn't bother to clean her up!! I don't like the fact that they just left her like that!! Do better and document your information. Please don't leave animals to sit in their own piss or shit!!!

We got our puppy Panda 3 years ago, he is the sweetest dog I ever had, I never had such a lovely…read morepuppy before, my baby Panda truly care about us, he is my love, if you are sad or feeling down he comes to you and loves to lick your face He is healthy, well trained, he always pee outside even without potting training him before, his coat is perfect and fluffy and he really is a companion dog, he loves to be close to us. I could not ask for a better dog, he is definitely different from other dogs, he will always be my forever baby!!! I'm truly thankful for Sacred Hearts Kennel to give my baby. He is 5.7 pounds and loves to eat and play with his brother. He is wonderful with kids, adults and other dogs. He is perfect, we love him so much!!!

Update: After spending $100 dollars on a DNA test because Debbie refused to send me pictures of my…read morepuppies parents we've found out he is a pure bred Pomeranian. This could've all been avoided if she just communicated, and was transparent. However, I still suspect She's a puppy broker. Hence why she never sends pictures of the sire and dam or allows you to visit their environment. Now she's selling mini schnauzers. It seems her breeds change often and she sells many types. RED FLAG. Getting the papers for this dog was a hassle. We drove 3 hours from LA to pick him and she did not have papers ready, I should've turned back around and went home as that was unprofessional. You do not make someone drive that far without everything being ready and prepared. For weeks I went back and forth with Debbie about the papers. As we did not receive them within the timeframe she promised. She was in the midst of moving to Texas. I paid to have the papers so I expected them whether she were busy moving or not. This is not how I do business. Fast forward we received paperwork, not even sure what it is. But we have to pay for our papers through CKC. Not what we were expecting to pay the fee. Everything should've been included. This is what happens when he was never registered and she scrambled for 2 months to get the paperwork. Never had to do this with my other dog. I believe she never had them, had no intentions on sending them and pretty much did re-filing and made us pay for it. She also mentioned well you're not breeding him so why do you need papers! Well because you said he comes with them and that's why we paid the hefty price tag! Fraud! Initial meeting - We met in a parking lot to exchange dog/payment. We were also not allowed to view the kennel. Where she kept the dogs, didn't get to meet the parents. I thought this was standard when purchasing a dog from a breeder! This is why we do it, to make sure a puppy mill isn't being ran and the pups are in great living conditions. Her excuse was germs and strangers. Huge mistake. Please request to see the kennel. So many bad unethical breeders these days. Do your RESEARCH and demand to see where the puppies live. Having a dog is a huge commitment. God forbid, these dogs have health issues down the line. You are now attached and will pay a pretty penny. This is not our first time owning a Pom, he looks completely different from our older dog, even bigger than her she is 7 pounds, and many ppl have asked me is he mixed. I'm sure he is, but Debbie will keep claiming he is pure bred. I love him regardless but I'm going to do a DNA test just to be sure. I'm tired of breeders ripping people off.

We have been using this pet sitting service for about five years. A woman named Leona runs it, and…read moreshe is a vet technician. The rates are very reasonable and our pets are always happy and healthy when we return (except one time, see below). The pet sitter brings treats for our pets and leaves whatever is left over, so when we're only gone a couple of days, we'll have a big bag of chicken jerky for the dogs and a bag of organic cat treats. Seriously, the pet sitter absolutely spoils our animals, and I don't feel guilty leaving for vacations now. The cats and dogs are groomed and played with, and then I get home and they're like, "Where's the pet sitter?" I recommend Peace of Mind Pet Sitting to all of my friends, and everybody raves about how great the service is. If you want to leave your animals at home while you are on vacation, I just can't say enough good things about this service. She also takes care of any medical care, so if our dog needs to take pills while we are gone, we can depend on her to administer them. Now, the ONE TIME we returned and our animals were not all healthy and happy: Our old-man dog used to climb our trees and then jump out of them, and we knew eventually he would hurt himself. Well, of course that happened while we were on vacation. He jumped out of the tree, caught himself on the fence, and broke his leg. The pet sitter immediately took the dog to the vet and paid for the x-ray and pain meds herself. She felt so guilty (because she didn't know our dog did this ALL THE TIME). She was very upfront about the accident and very apologetic, and even offered to pay the medical bills since it happened on her watch. As she is a vet tech, we instead just took her recommendations for a good vet surgeon who would fix our dog for a good price and do good work. She saved us about $3,000 on the surgery with her recommendation. Now, our dog is still doing awesome and still loves the pet sitter. He doesn't climb trees, though!
