I highly recommend Mel's Kennels for doggie daycare and boarding. The owner is AMAZING! She is…read moreprofessional, kind, and passionate about her job; she will treat your pet as if it were her own. Excellent facilities - kennels are clean and secure and there are fenced, grassy play areas (one for big dogs and one for little dogs). Prices are great. Location is very convenient (right outside North Fort gate). You will not find a better place for your pet - in Leesville or elsewhere for that matter. Mel's is in a class all to it's own. I am a very protective pet owner, and I never have to worry when my dog is at Mel's. All the animals have a great time (pics are up on facebook to prove it) and are well loved during their stay. Make reservations early because she is in demand and gets booked up quickly.

My dog Sirius Black absolutely loved being here. Every time I picked him up he was super excited…read moreand happy to see me and when I would drop him off I always left knowing he was in good hands. Mel exudes love and passion for her kennel so it helped me feel comfortable knowing Sirius was going to be with a good pack and good pack leader. Her kennel is awesome! Its a kennel where the dogs can feel like dogs. It is safe and has plenty of play space for them to run and feel free. I would recommend this kennel to anyone at Fort Polk just make sure to request really early because her kennel fills up pretty quick.

In short they are a business before being a vet. The veterinarian is too busy to actually take time…read moreto speak to you, they give medication before testing to see if it's even needed, they have extra fees everywhere, they want to to agree to payment of services before being told what they will be, and are not punctual at all. I called and asked before scheduling if they had the 12 month heart worm injection before making an appointment. I was told they did and we scheduled an appointment a week later. When we arrived our appointment was at 0900 but were not seen until after 0900. I was also asked upfront to sign an agreement to pay for service rendered before even being told what that service would be. While she tried to say that it was for future service that is not how it reads. After being there for about 45 minutes I was told we would have to come back if I wanted the 12 month heart worm as they now did not have it. Giving the benefit of the doubt we came back two days later. This time we were taken to a room right away. We sat in the room for a while until they told me the actual veterinarian was too busy to come examine the dog in the room an needed to take her to the back. I was told to wait up front. They then brought her back and, more waiting. Later the technicians came in to giver her the normal medication your dog receives once a year. However, they gave her a de worming medication WITHOUT testing for worms. After I asked why you would give be a de worming medication before testing they then decided to test. She was negative as expected. At the end I did finally have the actual veterinarian doctor come into the room. This was to give her the heart worm. Its interesting to note they did wait for results of the heart worm test before giving but did not for de worming. Posted in the room were notices that while you have a legal right to go elsewhere for medication they would charge you to provide a prescription. While yes you should pay for the visit I've never seen a vet charge for just writing the prescription. I'd recommend if you can to find another vet but the issue is you don't have many options. The vet next to the base I could not find a single person that recommended going there. I did here and I was disappointed. To be clear the staff is friendly but even a car salesman sells you a car with a smile. I also they were upset with me pointing out these concerns but they concern me. Often business right outside of the military bases have a habit in engaging in these type of practices because they know they can get away with it. I would not recommend this being your regular veterinarian. If you can it might be worth the hour travel time to find a vet in a bigger city or even a rule vet that's more vet focused than profit focused.

This is the only vet I use for my dawgs…read more They are gentle and very professional. You always feel like family. They do remember your pet and take great care of them. I have 3 boston terriers, a ole English sheepdog and Dr Beall is the only vet. Have to love small town businesses.

My experience was not a good one at all. The groomer that we normally used had quit and I was in…read moreneed of a new one so this was my very first experience with this business. I own a Shitzoh, and let me just say he definitely looked nothing like one when I arrived to pick him up. I explained not once but twice how I wanted my puppy cut and was assured that the owner could do this. My puppy's hair was completely shaved off all but his head, the hair on his head was supposed to be what is called a "teddy bear face" all the hair was uneven and stringy looking, nothing had been done whatsoever about the ears, let's just say if there were a way to post how bad he looked I would gladly do it. Now I am in the process of getting another groomer go back and attempt to fix the "butcher job" this business did on my puppy. Fair warning to anyone who needs a new groomer don't go to this particular business. I did attempt to let the owner know that I was not happy with the haircut when I picked my dog up and again later that day when I realized he was missing some of his tags that were on his collar, her response was to scream loudly at me over the phone, I hung up.
