I lost my soul dog of 14.5 years 2 days before Christmas, lasting paws staff really honored my…read moregirl. I am here to express my unending gratitude for every single employee at the centennial location as well as the Henderson location(where her body was originally transported) for making the worst moment of my life a bit more bearable. From the employees I spoke with that suggested the viewing service while I was hysterically trying to secure peace of mind to Louis who took care of and prepared my baby girl for her final walk home, the compassion shown was nothing short of incredible. With her passing being during the holiday season(12/23) I was not able to have the service until 1/6, exactly 2 weeks after her passing and I was very nervous about how she would look, feel and overall be presented to me. As soon as they opened the door to the bereavement room that was prepared for us an instant cry of relief, she looked just as she did while she was sleeping, so peaceful. I've seen a lot of reviews commenting negatively on prices for this service(and pricing in general) so it's important to me to share just how incredible lasting paws staff made the worst moment of my life. Honestly the cost was such a small price to pay for the experience of being able to touch, kiss, hug my baby girl one last time. So while some may think this is a "money grab on grieving pet parents" I could see(and feel) just how much love and care went into her viewing service by the staff. They bathed her, brushed her and had her prepared on a table with soft blankets and a pillow for her head. Louis did a very thorough job of explaining everything about the cremation process and communicated with me through every step. I brought supplies to make more nose/paw prints but forgot scissors so that I could clip more of her fur, without question the sweet front desk staff provided a pair of scissors and a small plastic bag to keep the clippings in. I had used a euthabag(instead of standard issued plastic bags) that I had sent to all of her loved ones to write sweet final goodbye messages. One of the many reasons I did this was so that whoever was handling her could tell how loved and special she was...Louis made a point to comment on this stating that him and the staff really enjoyed reading the messages on her bag and could feel how loved and special she was. That small seemingly insignificant exchange truly helped my grieving heart so much, just to know she was seen in death the same way as when she was here, so very loved. I had 30 mins with her but of course was offered more time if I felt as though I need it, in fact when Louis came back in to check on us and I had said I was ready, after explaining everything he even confirmed again that I did not need more time. I was given the option to leave and come back when everything was done OR stay in the room dedicated for us while she was being cremated. I opted to stay with her throughout the entire process because I promised her I would be with her until the very end. Once Louis took her to the back I was still able to watch via a tv with a live feed in the bereavement room and Louis even came back in the room to let me know when it was finished and he was going to be opening the door to begin brushing her ashes out so that I may look away if I needed to. I was there from 9am-2:30pm and was able to go home with her and all of her prints and clay paws. I guess I'm leaving this review to sing the highest of praises for lasting paws employees and their viewing service option but also to let any grieving pet parents know: if you're on the fence on whether or not the viewing services is "worth the money" ....it 100% is-being able to kiss her sweet nose one last time was priceless and truly has helped so much with my grieving process. Also I hope Louis sees this and knows how much of a positive impact he made during the worst time of my life and how grateful I am for the care he showed my girl after her passing-He made this whole experience a bit more bearable and really honored my girl.

I called multiple times on Friday and Saturday to get an update on the status of my dog, often more than once per day, but received no response. The only communication I received was a text message on Sunday stating that my dog was ready for pickup. The message stated: "Pickup may be made weekdays 3 p.m.-6 p.m. or Sat/Sun before 3 p.m. or by appointment." Based on that information, I arrived at approximately 3:30 p.m. on Sunday. The employee was already leaving but did return to assist us. Unfortunately, the pickup felt rushed, and I was not given the opportunity to look at or purchase an urn before leaving. Losing a pet is an incredibly difficult experience, and I would have appreciated more consistent communication and a less rushed pickup process during such an emotional time.

My family is disappointed with our experience here, especially after being referred to this…read morehospital by multiple other emergency veterinarians. We left feeling like our fear for our dog's condition and our love for her were being leveraged to encourage increasingly expensive treatments, despite there not being a clear diagnosis or certainty that those treatments were actually the right course of action. When we arrived, our dog was taken from us before we had the opportunity to fully explain what had been happening, including what medications she had already received. It was approximately 40 minutes before we were able to provide that information, and we did not see her again for nearly three hours. This was incredibly difficult for us as her owners. We had no way of knowing how she was doing, whether she was acting differently, or what was happening with her. When we finally saw her after completing the discharge paperwork, she was COMPLETELY different from when we brought her in. She was extremely out of it when we got there but in the car she had her personality back. This change was never clearly communicated to us by the staff, and we obviously could not have communicated it ourselves because we were not allowed to see her for hours. We were also told after having to ask during discharge if anything had been done or administered, which they said no to, that would have explained such a significant change in her behavior. They did however give an IV that they did not administer anything in or use at all. Our dog was initially acting out of it, had some weakness in her hind legs, and showed discomfort when her stomach was touched. The veterinary team seemed to quickly lean toward this being a typical IVDD case. We were told an ultrasound had been performed and that there was nothing abnormal that should be in her stomach. However, after calling her regualr vet we were told that if she had ingested some type of liquid from our garage, the ultrasound would not have identified it. This left us feeling slightly uncertain about what was actually causing her symptoms. We were strongly encouraged to pursue an MRI, which was verbally quoted to us at around $5,000, followed by surgery at another approximately $5,000. We were seriously considering spending that amount because, of course, we would do everything we reasonably could for our dog. However, when we were presented with the actual estimate, it was nearly $20,000. That was an enormous and unexpected difference from what had been verbally discussed and was extremely upsetting during an already terrifying situation. When we declined the estimate, the recommendation know was to do strict crate rest for six weeks, carrying her outside to use the bathroom, and medication. We were left wondering how such drastically different treatment plans could be presented without a clear diagnosis(MRI) or a transparent explanation of the options, risks, and costs. I also want other pet owners to know something we were not aware of: their neurologist is "on call" on weekends and, according to what we were told, would only come in if a dog was completely unable to walk. Our dog could still walk, although she was wobbly, slow, and having difficulty with her hind legs. We had specifically called beforehand to ask whether they had a neurologist and were not made aware of this limitation. We were told that if we wanted to pursue the MRI and potentially surgery, the neurologist could come in the following day, which we did appreciate as it was the weekend. However, we would've had to leave our dog hospitalized overnight at a cost of about $1,000 per day, when we would have rather put that money to treatment. To be clear, we understand that emergency veterinary care is expensive. This review is not simply about the cost, nor is it about being unwilling to spend money on our dog. We were prepared to consider spending thousands of dollars if we understood why it was necessary and felt confident in the plan. The biggest issue was the lack of trust created by the experience: feeling like there was inconsistent communication, not being allowed to see or adequately communicate about our dog for hours, significant uncertainty surrounding the diagnosis, pressure during an incredibly vulnerable moment, and a major lack of pricing transparency. I strongly feel that the hospital needs to reconsider how cost estimates are communicated to families. If a treatment could ultimately cost close to $20,000, that needs to be clearly communicated before a family is verbally led to believe they are looking at something 1/2 that cost. Families should not have to discover that difference while sitting in an emergency hospital, terrified about whether their pet is going to be okay. Unfortunately, due to the lack of trust it's hard to determine weather or not we would return or recommend them. Everyone wants what is best for their pet, but it felt like their main focus was our checkbook.

GoodRX pet vs office payout. I am an Army veteran, 100% disabled and live on my enlisted military pension, not getting rich, more on the poverty side. At the office each pack of 30 costs 50.00 and I have two dogs taking two pills daily, so I need them every two weeks costing me 200.00 a month just for this pills. Now at GoodRX pet these drugs are 25.00 for 30 tablets, meaning it would only cost 100.00 a month to order these drugs from GoodRx... let me tell you the rest of the story. So GoodRx says we can call the vet and have them approve this or they can give you a script and send it in, I chose have them call the Vet. Vet office tells them we no longer do this over the phone he must pick up a script.... No problem, called and said can you do the script, yes you can pick it up later. What does the script say, good for only 2 fills! Meaning every month I will have to get a new script from the office send it in and have possible delays in getting the med or pay the 200.00 cost, just making this inconvenient for myself. These times we are in, we all feel the crunch... now if you don't want me getting mail order drugs, then lower your price, GoodRX is still making a profit at 25.00 a pack, lower your price to 30.00 and I will pay that at your office. What I feel is by making me send a script in monthly to get my dogs meds, you are trying to penalize me for trying to save 100.00 a month, I am real confused. You can say, well the dog may not need the meds and that's why we limit you... yet I have to take my dogs in monthly for a blood test to make sure it's needed and not harmful to my pups or at the well check.... So if you tell me at the appointment the dog doesn't need the meds do you think I will still give it to them? Really confused. Maybe I am asking too much, a fair price to help me save money. I know folks think us military folks are not the brightest, I will agree I may not be as smart as someone with a degree... but something just doesn't seem right. I have no problem spending thousands a year on my pets health and wellbeing, I think this office treats my pets well... I am just lost why I need to pay 1200.00 extra a year for just one med.
