I took my baby girl here on April 30th, she was extremely lethargic, very very shallow breathing,…read morenot eating, not drinking ( it had been 4 days since she had either) she had blood in her poop, drooling. We had took her in and told them EVERYTHING! She was very sick, they told us they'd start with X-rays to make she didn't have a blockage. 6 hours later, we went to go get her. All the told us was they gave her anti nausea medicine, sent her home with different food and said "there was no blockage she's okay." They also said they took her outside and she "perked right up." "She hasn't thrown up at all while here" our baby girl proceeded to gag as soon as we got in the car. Progressively got worse since the moment she left. 2 days later she died. We took her to a second vet the next day after cottonwood, where they proceed to check her right away and said she's EXTREMELY dehydrated, and couldn't believe cottonwood didn't give her an IV, AFTER KNOWING SHE HADN'T EATEN OR DRANK IN DAYS. Amigo vet gave her IVs, tested her for parvo (negative) amigo told us she was extremely sick. My baby bled out of her but. She was extremely sick going into cottonwood, and they neglected our baby girl. 2 days after her passing, I talked to her doctor in person Dr. Hoest. I had asked her why they didn't give piper an IV. She quite literally SHRUGGED her shoulders. Continued to tell us, they checked if she was dehydrated, said she was. Were we told that when picking her up from there. NO, I was not. We were told nothing else but that she didn't have a blockage, THEY SAID SHE WAS OKAY. Whatever you do, don't take your baby here. Take them somewhere people actually care, Dr. Hoest chooses which clients she would like to GENUINELY care for. Yea it's cheaper here, but is it really worth the risk? Dr. Hoest neglected my dog, didn't do her job they way she should have. do NOT bring your pets here!

On Presidents day Feb 16,2026 had an appt with vet to discuss my cat Sarah.She had been there 2…read moreweeks.Dr Terlou assured me he wasn't too busy and would provide a stress free place to help with her virus. The visit was very short as he said he had a surgery. If he would have taken the time I would have told him I'm taking the time to move her to ER place.AS DR disconnected her breathing machine. I noted he didn't have her on fluid therapy. After telling me she is not drinking. But no talk about follow up. I made sure to tell him I have money. He quickly leaves. Almost right away vet tech who wears dark glasses cuts in front of me and quickly grabs Sarah who quietly sat at back of cage and was mean to her to get her worked so that now I can't visit her without hissing and scratching.I did nothing because I was so shocked. I'm thinking Who does this? In front of me. I planned to get her a second opinion and to the ER place..Where is her boundaries? So unethical.She caused harm to my cat. The Dr knows I;m sure.Because soon after she arrived and was given eye drops for conjunctivitis he wasn't;t receptive to other ideas to help her. As time went on he never said take Sarah somewhere else.. No reason vet tech was so aggressive. This is considered an assault. None of this.I did look around corner and witnessed what she did.NEVER will forget it. She hurt my cat.....All the white this done in a hurry. This visit was not to do a euthanasia. But she was forceful...Not even any talk.I'm numb..NO COMPASSION.....It took a while to tame her when I found her as a stray and now by the vet tech;s actions I have to start over again. If these people care about cats why would they not let her get a second opinion? This behavior by them shocked a few others. They killed my 3 year calico cat. Who received a shot. And I;m charged $500. I can't give any more details as its too painful. They just wanted to kill my cat and not treat her.Or give me second opinion. I had to stop now.There is a little more.........

I called late, like 9pm last night from my cell in an RV park not too far away. They were willing to travel to me but I ended up going to the. They readily agreed to put my dog to sleep in my RV so he wasn't scared. They let me feed Cargo tons of treats and a raw steak before. She listened to his heart and confirmed it was failing again. And they let me hold him and talk to him as long as I wanted. We talked about the breed and how he was incredibly lucky to like 13 years as Weimaraner's tend to like roughly 11years. Although I don't remember the names, they were sisters and the tech gave me a big hug afterwards as I was uncontrollably sobbing. They were patient and kind and gracious to a stranger who was passing through taking her best friend on one last road trip. Although the outcome was not what I wanted, they treated us with dignity and i cannot ask for anything more
