Above all, I do give credit to good staff, however, my expectations were below par. They required my social, and driver's license #, which made me super uncomfortable. As well as the whole process felt rushed as quickly as the exam was done, as well as the lack of information provided when I was told he had a parasite. They could've avoided my 10 week old puppies meltdown by giving food to my puppy or offering him a lick mat instead of restraining him for vaccines. I'm 100% for restraining dogs, however this in the long run is why dogs have vets, so if the staff reads this please learn to take your time or learn up to date fear free tactics. (I understand fear can never be avoided 100% but this could have been avoided if the vets spent more than 10 minutes with the dogs to get them in and out) as well as the receptionist came out to play with my puppy, which is fine but she took his bone away from him stating "if you are mean to them now, they will be less mean later" (which is good desensitization) however teaching owners to take bones away from dogs is the second main reason for resource guarding and is a CAUSATION for dogs to become possessive. I would have traded the dog for his bone instead of this old style of training. I will not be returning, however I hope this place reflects to help more dogs out in the long run!!! No disrespect to anyone there, but improvement needs to be made. Thank you! read more

While RVing out at Lake Barkley (5 hrs from home) one of our dogs started showing signs of a pneumonia recurrence that he had just finished his meds for and had a pretty high fever. We were in a panic and the closest 24 hour vet was quite a while away so we stayed up with him until we could find a vet to check him out the next day and possibly get him back on antibiotics. We had called several vets that basically told us to take him to the ER vet about and hour away. We were beyond blessed that Little River Vet Clinic was able to squeeze us in! Not only were they the kindest of people, but Dr Joanna Freeman did a wonderful job checking our big guy out (Great Dane) and not doing expensive imaging unnecessarily after listening to his chest. What would have most likely been a $800-$1k ER bill turned into a $60 vet check with a prescription for antibiotics. Even though we were squeezed into their schedule for a same day apt. we didn't feel squeezed in with treatment and care. While we were in the waiting room there was a very nice couple with a cute 4 mo old beagle and they mentioned they drive over 60 miles from Tennessee just to use this vet. I can definitely see why!!!! We plan to come back out to this lake and are so thrilled to know this wonderful vet is close by. read more
