Though I was (my pet was never seen) I think Zoe and the other members of the front desk are incredibly professional and welcoming. Of course what I thought was an emergency was not equivalent to what was ( surgery) I also later found out my pet was fine just being a teen. Like I said even though I never got to have any services because it was a holiday weekend and they were incredibly busy I would definitely go back. read more

They cannot be trusted to deliver proper care and antibiotics to an acute UTI in a cat. They charged me $2000 twice when my cat was in critical condition and only gave her antibiotics when I demanded them the first time which worked. The second time they only gave her a saline IV for 48 hours and her vet gave her the antibiotic which saved her life. I've spent about $6000 there over 3 visits in less than 2 years. It is criminal what they charge for minimal treatment and some of the nurses treat you like you are crazy. One nurse looked at me in a very threatening way. The other receptionists delayed her treatment and were so pedantic. condescending and neglectful. I will never go back there and wouldn't recommend this clinic to anyone who loves their pet. I spoke to a manager and she confirmed that they would not have given her an antibiotic for a UTI. They have no idea what they are doing and are robbing people of their money. It is sickening and they should lose their license to practice. read more

Easter Sunday I took my Cocker Lola to this Clinic. I wished I could remember her name. She was so compassionate. I knew my Lola had cancer but what I didn't know how advanced her cancer was. Lola was a much older dog. Its been less then 5 months when I lost my husband, now this. No other choice but to put my sweet baby to sleep. My Sweet Dr. I hope you will see this review. You showed me her exrays and explained everything so clearly. It's been heartbreaking for me but this Dr. Really went out of her way to comfort me and my Lola. Thank you!! Sherrie Gray read more

I'm heartbroken and furious about what happened to my 1-year-old German Shepherd, Athena, under the care of this hospital--and specifically, Dr. Cursio. Athena underwent a hip replacement here. While the surgery itself was successful, the aftermath was a nightmare. She developed a staph infection shortly after the procedure. Instead of digging deeper, Dr. Cursio continued to throw antibiotics at the issue without ever investigating the root cause. There was no sense of urgency, no proactive follow-up, and no accountability. Athena got worse. She became unable to walk, was in constant pain, and the infection eventually spread to her spine--completely deteriorating her spinal discs. I was told we might have to put her down. I had already spent nearly $20,000 at this clinic with no resolution--just more prescriptions and vague advice. To make matters worse, there was a lapse in her antibiotics due to their failure to follow up, which allowed the infection to advance even further. Had I not had the ability to pivot and seek care elsewhere, or the funds to do so, Athena would be dead. Thankfully, I got her to Ross Animal Hospital, where she received stem cell therapy, rehab, and compassionate, competent care. They saved her life. This hospital--while capable of surgery--completely failed at every other level of care. If you're considering bringing your pet here, please don't. I do not recommend this place to anyone. Athena deserved better. Every pet does. read more

Easter Sunday afternoon my sister Sherrie and myself took her sweet dog Lola to North GA Veterinary Specialist. The facility was clean and we found everyone friendly. Lola was clearly in distress and wasn't breathing well. After the vet saw her X-rays it was determined that Lola had fluid in her lungs due to tumors in and around her lung. Every single person we encounter at North GA was professional and kind. We decided that it was best for Lola to put her to sleep. When the time came we held Lola while the vet gave her the shots. I wish I could remember the vets name as she was so patient and sweet to us and Lola. I would highly recommend North GA Veterinary Specialist. read more

I discovered some ticks in my German Shepard ear during to him yelling when I pet him. there was some infection and he wouldn't let me extract the ticks . he was in a lot of pain and was fighting me so i needed to have him sedated and let the vet get it proper and clean. I told them over the phone , in the office I elaborated and even discussed it further w a tech. we were not there for an exam we were there requesting a procedure because we already knew the issue. they took my dog in the back for 20 minutes and I repeatedly heard him screaming , finally they come out and tell me he has ticks and needs to be sedated for $700...i couldn't believe it and refused they went ahead and still charged me $175 dollars to tell me my dog has ticks in his ear and he needs to be sedated. read more

On April 17, 2025, we brought our 2-year-old dog to this clinic because we knew something was wrong. We asked several times if lab work, x-rays, or further diagnostics were needed. We were told over and over by Dr. Kim that they weren't. The front desk girl (possibly named Claudia) was on her phone and completely disengaged. No urgency. No care. We trusted them. We even signed paperwork without reading it fully because we believed we were in capable hands. Less than 24 hours later, our dog was dead. Their negligence cost us everything. Please think twice before bringing your pet here. read more

I visited North Georgia Animal Hospital tonight, 2/24/2026, with my dog due to a leg injury that was causing him not to put any pressure on it. When we arrived, we were the only clients in the lobby. Shortly after, three other dogs came in and each of them was seen before my dog. After waiting approximately 40 minutes, another dog arrived. At that point, it became clear that we were not being tended to in the order of arrival. A technician eventually came out and said, "I know you all are next, but let me see about this little one and see what's going on." That was extremely frustrating and disappointing, especially given that my dog was clearly in pain. I understand that emergencies can arise, but there was no communication or explanation provided to us about any change in priority. As a pet owner, it's concerning to feel overlooked when your animal needs medical attention. Due to the lack of communication and long wait time despite arriving first, I chose to leave. I hope the hospital improves its customer service and communication practices so other pet owners do not have a similar experience. read more

"I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Surdyk and the entire team at North Georgia Veterinary Specialists Buford. From the moment we walked in, we were treated with kindness, compassion, and genuine care. Dr. Surdyk took the time to explain everything clearly, answer our questions, and make sure we felt comfortable with the treatment plan. What impressed me most was the level of expertise combined with such a gentle, caring approach toward my pet. It's obvious that Dr. Surdyk truly loves what she does and goes above and beyond to provide the best possible care. The staff was equally amazing--professional, attentive, and supportive throughout the entire process. Dr. Surdyk's technician, Brittany K., is the best!!! She treated us as if she was one of our family members. She follows up, she makes sure we understood and were good with the medication plan, Brittney is second to none. Thanks to Dr. Surdyk and NGVS, Nelli received top-notch care. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a veterinary specialist who treats both pets and their owners with respect, compassion, and excellence." Nelli has IMHA but is on her way to recovery, and we are so pleased with the results. Janie H. read more

Terrible service and pricing. I understand it's an emergency vet so things are gonna cost more but to be quoted 1,000-1,200 to have my dog's paw sowed up and for them to only clean it and put a cream on it and turn around and charge me 1,200 is insane. Not only that. I was told ya it'll be a couple of hours mind you this happens at around 6:00 pm for me to call every 2 hours up until 2 am the next day to find out they haven't even looked at my dog. I called again at 4 am and they said oh ya he's been done for a while we just forgot to call you. Is just insane. They do not care about your time at all. They just want ur money. And this isn't even the only instance that's been poor. I called after this to get a bandage change (I was told no need for an appointment if it's just a bandage just to call ahead) and they stated yep we are all clear come on in and we will get it taken care of real quick. This was a lie. I showed up and waited almost 2 and a half hours just for them to constantly come in and say ya we are about to start now and for them to say ya we didn't prescribe the correct antibiotics so we are gonna need to change them. I was flabbergasted at this. Then I had to come back not even 2 days later for a new bandage because the one they put on barely held. When I called for this appointment they stated ya come on in and we can do it real quick. This again was a lie. I drove 40 minutes for them to tell me oh ya it's actually going to be another 2-3 hours before we can even look at him. But our more than happy to wait. Aswell as all of this the doctors or surgeons or whatever you wanna call them stand their and bug you about a budget and will criticize everything you say and judge you to the point that you feel like a worthless dog parent. This place is a joke of an urgent care facility. Do not bring your animal here unless you want your time wasted and money gouged. read more

My beautiful Sadie Mae passed away and they were absolutely wonderful helping me with the arrangements. They were caring, thoughtful, and helped me throughout the incredibly sad experience. I had her cremated and I was so appreciative when I picked up her remains. It was absolutely beautiful and just to top it all off, I received a hand signed card from ALL of the employees with the nicest well wishes. WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

Dog got mauled by a coyote and this clinic could not have been nicer. We came in and it was a pretty long wait. there were a lot of dogs who needed care. That didn't bother me because that's usually the case at any ER. I found the vet to be very caring and thorough. I see a lot of negative reviews about cost. There is pet insurance. Please invest in it. There's no excuse not to and it certainly doesn't warrant the bad reviews about it. I found the cost of care to be extremely reasonable but I have insurance. If you love your pet, treat them as family. Try embrace pet insurance. Will return if I have another family emergency. Thank you read more

Was really disappointed with the experience. Took my cat in because he had tummy problems. Was vomiting, not eating/drinking etc. and I was worried. Well first thing they did was just take my cat when I walked in the door at 8 pm and I didn't see him until they brought him out at 11:30pm. Was expecting atleast to be in the room with him for initial check/exam. I could've told them he's a huge brat. Eventually I got to speak with the vet- the whole time hear my cat in the back crying and howling and hissing (he's very vocal) could tell They didn't know how he needs to be handled. Lil guy was freaking out. Pricing nearly made me throw up. Outrageous. They require a deposit of few hundred? when you leave your pet with them. The bill came out to in the thousand(s). They found nothing wrong with him.., They took hours longer than expected. First told me it should take an hour- I had to call them after 2 hours to find out "the vet is examining him now". After hours of waiting I Just showed up- I see the vet at the front desk. She walks away when I come in. I sat there for an another hour- hearing my cat scream the entire time. HERES THE KICKER; when the vet brings him out and tells me the details- she kept referring to my male cat as a SHE. Causing me to ask- "uhm what is my cat a girl?" SHE TELLS ME SHELL HAVE TO GO CHECK.. Yes- he's a boy, as indicated in his anatomy and his paperwork! And I'd honestly prefer/expect a vet that atleast knows my animals gender! Do not recommend read more

Always seem understaffed and this time I waited from 12:30 am til 6 am and still didn't leave til 8am. Hire more help or have someone on standard. The owners obviously do not want to pay for the necessary staffing yet charge dbl the regular vets for care and meds. I don't mind paying it for the convenience of emergency care after hours but at least provide worthy customer service. Sorry not recommending this place. read more

Dr Curcio has saved my dog 2 times now. I'm forever grateful to the wonderful doctors and techs. Thank y'all for what you do.

This was my first experience ever needing an emergency vet. My sweet little Lhasa Apso was having some vomiting and Diarrhea. I asked my friends where to go and they recommended North Georgia Veterinary Specialists. I took him there tonight to get an exam. Dr Neff seen and treated him. They are very compassionate in the care of your fur baby. Being a holiday weekend, they were quite busy. Prices were extremely reasonable for being an after hour emergency visit. Thank You so much Dr Neff and Staff for taking such great care is Gizmo. read more

We had to take our fur baby to the vet over the weekend he was very sick and as much as we hated to hear the bad news the doctor gave us all our options it was a sad day to say the least our baby was dying, and it was decided to put him to sleep instead of watching him hurt. The doctor that helped us was very compassionate and would have done whatever we had decided but we all agreed it was the best decision we could have made for our baby boy. all the staff were very friendly and compassionate. the facility was very clean and everyone there respected our privacy. Thank you to the staff and Doctor. read more

I went in a crying mess on a rainy day with my beloved Boxer. He was having trouble breathing but I knew it was "time". The doc confirmed but gave me meds to keep him comfortable until I could get my pup to his regular vet. She didn't have to, but it shows the level of compassion they have there. I hope I never need them, but if I do, that will be the place I go. read more

VERY thankful for this clinic! Last night our dog had diarrhea and vomiting--we were thinking the vomiting was probably from some household cleaner she had gotten into. Thankfully, there was no wait once we arrived. They are having customers call upon arrival and wait in the car, and they come out to you. Thankfully, Nikita (spelling?) assessed the situation, and asked a lot of really great questions. They took our dog back and then Dr. Dempsey came out to give us the diagnosis, which thankfully was not serious. I was super impressed with the efficiency, friendliness, and even the cost. Yes, I know these ER vets can be super expensive, but I felt their prices were very reasonable, and we were in and out in one hour. read more

My dog had been ill for a few weeks and my regular vet couldn't quite figure out what was going on. She deteriorated over the weekend and I brought her to this location. They did know what her symptoms and lab work indicated and tried to stabilize her overnight but we ended up having to put her down the next morning (not their fault, she just didn't respond the way we hoped). I appreciated the compassion of the office, the answers we received, and while vet care is expensive, I was expecting worse than what we had to pay and so I do think they were reasonable cost-wise. read more

Service: A++ Stellar Service, Great Staff and Wonderful Bedside Manner. I had to begin this review with Service. My toy pup went to North Georgia almost unresponsive. He had been treated for symptoms of a problem when I'd taken him to a veterinary earlier that day. That veterinary failed to provide adequate treatment for my puppy and he worsened. Dr. Hayes performed THOROUGH blood analyses, and monitoring. She and her staff pampered my pooch as they hydrated him, and kept him overnight. Dr. Hayes spoke delicately and kept me posted throughout the night. Dr. Hayes was empathetic and Genuinely concerned about little Harrington. She is the type of of veterinarian that loves animals and her job. I appreciate North Georgia for doing all they could to save his life. More importantly, for doing their jobs. An added bonus was that they gave him a bath before he came home. Ambience: A-The parking and external building aesthetic is modern and pet friendly. Cleanliness: A Location: A++ Located in a strip mall with loads of parking, a grooming salon, and a pet rehabilitation facility. Price: B they are comparable to other 24 hour emergency veterinary care centers Definitely Recommend. read more

Good in an emergency, but just be careful with your wallet. Only concern was my dog being recommended Hydrocodone for a cough. I was also asked what was my budget. Just got concerned that a budget dictates the level of service. read more

2 back-to-back miracles! In December, Dr. Oshin performed a delicate and complex surgery on our 8 yr old dog, Faith, to remove a cancerous adrenal gland and kidney. She recovered quickly and acts like a puppy again! At beginning of February, our 16 yr old cat ingested a toxic plant. Dr. Surdyk brought our sweet Melanie back from the brink of death. This is a TRUE ANIMAL HOSPITAL - with highly qualified doctors and technicians who treat pet patients like we humans expect to be treated! We cannot recommend this hospital enough! After decades of pet ownership, we are in awe of the life-saving skills at this facility! read more

DO NOT TAKE YOUR PET HERE. Our puppy was incorrectly diagnosed with a torn CCL when in reality she has an infection in her spine. She is currently in critical condition in the UGA Veterinary Teaching Hospital. This could have been completely avoided had NGVS truly looked at all the findings of the over $1200 in diagnostics I paid for. Our puppy does NOT have any torn CCLS. I cannot say enough about the poor treatment we received here, the disrespect shown to me when I questioned the findings that were seemingly accidentally shared with me in an email (that were previously undisclosed), and the lack of response to my pleas for help in finding her true diagnosis. Shame on you NGVS. My dog is permanently affected because of your malpractice. read more

Do not take your pet there if you can avoid it. I took my 5 month old puppy there last night because she was having trouble breathing and it seem as though she was joking on something that she couldn't get out. Doctor Mete Ender Tuncay, DVM (Dr. Pet Death) saw her and first it was "I looked at her but she looks good." When I explain why we were there he quoted pricing. Now I have already told the nurse and the tech what was happening. The Dr. basically came out to quote price before fully checking what was going on with my pup. I agreed to service, he then came back and was like " I don't have good news, she has a condition. Called MEGAESOPHAGUS and basically she will not be able to eat or digest food properly, it will be expensive to have to care for a puppy life long with this condition. My advise is to put her to sleep. Let's not forget his exact words " it's pretty much a slam dunk" we can take care of it now. As my heart is ripping out and filled with tears. I proceeded to tell him that we just brought Sofia for our 7 year old. He said "well I can give her back so you can take her home so he can say his good bye. Then you can bring her back tomorrow to euthanize her." This man was horrible, how is he a vet? He never ever offered and Alternative if we wanted to go that route. Didn't even offer to give her Meds to go home with. I had to ask for it. If it wasn't for another pet owner who was there and over heard his cut and dry diagnosis my Sofia would be lost. She was and angel sent at the right time. Comforted me and proceeded to educate me on our puppy's condition. Because her puppy has the same condition and is still alive today going on 3 years. I do not recommend this place at all or better yet not this vet. He needs to be in another line of work. He was only concerned about getting his fee. I will fight with our girl and love her even more. Definitely getting a second opinion for sure. So so heart broken and disappointed In this treatment. read more

I'm not going to lie, I am crazy. When it comes to my fur-baby I have high anxiety, just a total basket-case. I know this and I cannot stop myself. But the staff at North Georgia Vet Specialists really know how to put one at ease. Tentative staff, knowledgeable technicians, and a very impressive surgical team. My 7 year old pug needed to get his knee fixed. I have had it looked at numerous times, numerous xrays, and everyone kept telling me he had arthritis of his hips. He would be prescribed anti-inflammatory meds or pain meds, told me to get a good bed, and massage his legs. He started to not use the leg at all. My vet referred my to Dr. James and he immediately was able to diagnose my baby's malfunction, even without looking at the diagnostics, purely through assessment. Recommended surgery. I always get worried when it comes to having to put my short nosed pug under anesthesia. Dr. James took the time to answer all my questions. Provided me details of the OR. Helped me prepare for the recovery process, so that my nerves wouldn't get the best of me when it was time for baby to come home. Lucky is post-op day one. Resting well. Eating well. We organized the house so it is recovery friendly, as recommended, as so far it is going well. Thank you Dr. James and the surgical team for your amazing care!! Once again, I am going to reiterate that I am a little crazy when it comes to this baby of mine. I called almost every 2-3hrs after he got out of surgery. Dr. James was extremely busy that day, but I was always able to talk to someone who was directly providing care for Lucky, to get an update. Of course, sleep was not my friend, so I called throughout the evening to get updates. I always received a friendly voice on the other line, providing answers to my multiple questions, and helping put my nerves to ease. Christie who worked overnight, went above and beyond when it came to providing information of his recovery. She never rushed me off the phone, answered my questions, and even gave me a little play by play of what lucky was doing at 230am. Thank you Christie and the entire staff of NGVS for your compassion and dedication to patient-family centered care. I have had to visit NGVS in emergent situations as well. My other pup, Cookie, was attacked by a big dog, and in pretty bad shape. There was a time when I thought that she was not going to make it. Dr. Curcio saved her life. After I think 2 or 3 surgeries and 2 weeks in the ICU, we brought this frail girl home. She ultimately needed to be fed through a feeding tube for a while. But with the expert guidance of Dr. Curcio, her recovery went smoothly. She is 100% recovered after 6 months, and back to her wild self. Thank you Dr. Curcio for saving Cookie. Overall, I would highly recommend NGVS. Enjoy!! read more

My dog's liver enzymes were so high that it couldn't report accurate levels. They told us they were elevated. When we take her to our regular vet the next day, our vet said she was so sick they couldn't do anything. Why didn't North Georgia Veterinary tell how sick she was? Shame on North Georgia Veterinary for not telling us how sick she was. $1,000 later with NGV. Be warned it all about the money to NGV. read more

The staff is absolutely incredible and so compassionate. My girl has cancer and the way they comforted me and her was so amazing. I felt so comfortable leaving her over night there. I live over a hour away and would go back their in a heart beat if my girl needs them. I could go on forever with how much I loved them! Thank you so much read more

We waited with our pet for over an hour with no communication. The staff did not seem friendly at all. When what seemed to be a vet came out she just said "come on back"...none of us knew who she was talking to. She didn't even use the client's or pet's name. At the hour and a half mark, we knew we weren't going to be seen, so we left. read more

I've had some amazing experiences, but on the night of 7/5, there was a lady named Mira and a man talking about each owners' pets that came in out loud in the lobby and making jokes.

After my dog got into a bowl of grapes, we rushed her to NGVS and within minutes they were able to treat her and induce vomiting. The staff was super sweet and gentle and Dr. T was very reassuring. If we hadn't been able to be seen so quickly, I'm certain my dog wouldn't be here today. read more

DO NOT BRING YOUR PETS HERE. BEWARE. We brought our Presa Canario here on Sunday for an Emergency Visit. She was having difficulty breathing and she was coughing up blood. We were told a week prior that her condition was called "kennel cough" and we would have to wait for a Tech to come out to our car. We waited and waited, and finally I went inside to tell them my dog couldn't wait any longer. They finally took her inside, we then waited for 4 hours in the lobby (they wouldn't let us see her) to FINALLY met with the Vet... Dr. Ossin said our dog had developed "lung cancer" even though her blood work tests were PERFECT. NOTHING showed up in her blood work (She had no health issues prior to this) THEN he said it could be an "infectious disease" ??? Which one is it?? He didn't even know! We were told we had to leave her there overnight. They charged us $2,500... We came back the very next day to pick her up, that's when we received the call on the way over... THEY TOLD US OVER THE PHONE THAT OUR DOG HAD DIED!!! THEY DIDN'T EVEN BOTHER TO CALL US TO LET US KNOW OUR DOG WAS HAVING COMPLICATIONS. That is the part that hurt me the most. If they knew she wasn't doing well, why wouldn't they call and tell us to come in and have a final moment with our girl before she passed???? THEY ARE HEARTLESS AND WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY!!! The vet shrugged everything off and was not apologetic. He couldn't even tell me her cause of death, because quite frankly, he doesn't even know! DO NOT TAKE YOUR PETS HERE. UNLESS YOU WANT TO PICK THEM UP DEAD :'( BEWARE! read more

I brought my dog in after he was attacked by another dog. He was obviously scared and they take your pet back without you which only adds to the anxiety. The doctor told me he was too rambunctious for them to fix his 3" gash on his ear and CHARGED ME for the gauze to wrap it myself at home. His ear cut is still very very open and they won't pick up the call to the emergency vet line after 20 minutes of trying. Terrible place and I absolutely would never recommend this shit hole if you want actual help with your pet. read more

I wished i had read the reviews before bringing my dog here. It is not easy to find a good vet, but this place is the WORST. They could not even diagnosed the issue after spending $3500, thye kept guessing on what to do next...with no guarantees on anything they do. You speak to 10 different assistants, every time is a different one. Until I found the one with th biggest attitude, I whish I knew her name, but to describe her was a young black girl who bullied me to called the authorities bc I was not signing a form when picking up my dog...and my invoice was all paid for. PLEASE DONT TRUST THAT PLACE, THEY WILL JUST KEEP EATING YOUR MONEY. RIP for my sweet Camila, I will always.love you read more

I made one call just before midnight they offered first class service from the moment I parked. They made me feel very comfortable through out the entire process. We're missing our beloved dog but I know the right decision was made. read more

My dog suffered a head injury and needed immediate assistance. I called the hospital in advance and told them what was happening, they told me just to bring her in asap. When I arrived the person who answered the phone was trying to diagnose her over the phone, I told her that she hurt her head and was no able to control her. This person tell me to take her somewhere else if I didn't like it in a very condescending manner, I was at the edge of tears and he proceeds to tell me that is not his problem and hangs the phone on me. I came to bluecloud in lawrenceville and the tech took a quick look at her and told me she required immediate help. Needless to say I would not recommend this place at all if you have an emergency. read more

Will never use this vet. Had my friends listened to their instructions their dog would have been dead. They spent 600 dollars to be sent home with some medication that they said would help fix the issue, despite not even knowing what the issue was. Doctor couldn't look my friends in the eye and they went HOURS without acknowledgment from staff or any answers. Their pup was discharged after 6 hours of wasted time, and she crashed again not even a couple hours later. I would avoid this place at all costs. They are NOT here to help your pets, just out for money. They claim services were refused, but nothing was refused. They gave my friends options to either start with one step and move forward based on what the puppy needed or go outright and do everything (which would have cost 5,500). They chose to take the step by step option and after some blood work and fluids the dog was discharged. This vet made NO effort to actually help their dog and just make excuses. They did nothing the owners asked. Don't waste your money here. read more

DO NOT BRING YOUR DOG HERE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. Ours died. Read on: We brought our dog here with severe coughing and struggling to breathe on three separate visits within 2 days. They gave him several shots, ran all sorts of tests and drugged him up saying he had some sort of infection. They charged us $1,100. They never once called to check on him or see how he was doing (as all other vets do). We called them again to let them know he was doing very bad and they said the vet who could look at him was out on vacation the next couple of weeks. WHAT!? So we brought him to his regular vet since it was no longer the weekend and they were open. They diagnosed him right away with heart failure and let us know, honestly, that they didn't want to take our money and didn't want our dog to suffer any more as he had been due to this misdiagnosis and failure to see he clearly had a heart failure issue. He died this morning, just about a week after this horrific experience with this vet. They did not care about our dog at all, they took us for every penny they could get out of us and they will do the same to you. There are plenty of good vets, take them somewhere else for the sake of your pet. read more
