I first have to thank the people that left reviews. I recently rescued a pup and wasn't happy with…read morerecent reviews my original vet has been receiving. I knew at the time of rescuing my pup he was going to need some special attention due to some issues I noticed. Plenty of people recommended plenty of vets but upon reading those reviews none were anywhere I wanted to take my new best friend. Brick Town Vet not only had plenty of reviews to read, they were mostly all positive and thorough. Now, on to the vet. Renee answered the phone with a positive attitude and let me run on about how great this pup was that just came into my life. She was patient, answered all my question and worked with me on making an appointment that fit in my schedule. Even when asking what his colors were she got excited to meet him once I explained what he looked like. When I got to the office the staff went above and beyond to make myself and my pup feel welcome. Everyone during his exam (Sorry, I forget everyones names) was informative and knowledgeable, if they didn't have an answer they found someone who did. He has since returned for surgery and I couldn't be happier. This was the first time I would be leaving him somewhere since i brought him home. The Dr. took time to meet with me and explain everything that was going to happen during his surgery. They informed me I could call every half hour if I wanted to check on him. I didn't feel the need to call until they reached out with an update as I felt he was in very good hands. I picked him up from surgery and everything went smooth with no complications and the price for what he had done was more than fair. They thoroughly explained what care I needed to provide during his recovery and again made sure that I knew I could call 100 times a day if needed. Bottom line, not happy with your vet or looking for a new one, Brick Town Veterinary is my pups new forever vet!

The care was great, and always professional, it was family and personalization. Fast forward to today, Dr. Steve Wurst passed away and his son Dr. Andy has taken the reins.

For all the changes and additions, the care, the expertise, the compassion, and the personalization has never changed, Dr. Andy Wurst and his dedicated staff have seen to that. And that my friends are why Barnegat Animal Clinic has constantly received 4-5 stars for customer service and reliability.

This last holiday season, I was away on an overseas trip and my now 12-year-old sometimes fussy/moody dog was once again a guest at Pampered Pet. She was not feeling well and they tried to reach me by phone but was unable to. They contacted me via email and we discussed the proper course of action in taking care of her. They brought her to their vet and provided her with medicine and me with daily updates until I got home. I was particularly impressed that they were able to keep such a close eye on my dog despite the number of "guests" they had for the holidays. If you ask them, they will tell you how your furry loved one behaved during their stay instead of saying "everything was great!" Great business. They treat your family like family. Thanks again for taking care of my fussy old gal.

I have been meaning to write this for a while now but after our family vacation last week with our…read morelittle "angel" Prissy, I knew I had to make it my priority. I got Prissy from NorthShore in January as a puppy and was told she would be no more than 50 pounds full grown; seven months later she's already 64 pounds and I don't think she's done growing yet, but she's precious and healthy so it's all good. I've always had dogs but like most in my generation, you just had them; we never thought about training. Well, at 52 years old, I knew if I didn't start a good training program with Priss right away, I would regret it. I visited the local franchise pet stores but I didn't feel very confident in their abilities. As soon as I met Helen I knew she was the "one". We began with a Basic class and I immediately saw the possibilities. When Prissy started to actually do what I was telling her to do, it blew me away; what blew me away even more was that I was learning more than she was at a time when I thought my "learnin" days were over (the nest had just become empty and I guess I was feeling it more than I let on). Helen made me look at almost everything in a new way which in turn helped Prissy. She is all about confidence and praise which really, really works. Don't get me wrong, Prissy is most definitely a bull in a china shop but when I tell her to sit or lie down or leave it (just to name a few), she does it (she really does it)! Which brings me to the vacation. We drove to Lake George and stayed at a beautiful rental home for the week before dropping my wonderful son off at college. I was sure I would never see that security deposit again but I was not going to let that hold me back. However, Prissy was so well behaved and listened and didn't jump and walked beautifully on leash and didn't ruin the house... thanks to Helen! Granted I was the one caring for and training and "monitoring" Priss, but without the confidence Helen instilled in me, it would not have been possible. What you need to know most of all is that every bit of the information and training Helen gave me was all done almost without me even knowing it; she's never boastful or condescending or any of the bad things you might associate with learning. I don't know how she does it, but she does it. We often talk about the need for a class for just the owners because we really are the ones being trained; something I didn't believe before I started. I'm sorry this was sooooo long, but I am always blown away when I realize I'm in command of this big, loving, precious, doofy animal and it's always done with love and compassion, again, thanks to Helen's guidance. If you just brought a new angel into your home or if you've had an angel with you for a while, you owe it to yourself to at the very least meet with Helen; I'm sure you will see what I saw. It's never too early or too late to be the pack leader... you just need to learn from the best leader in town. Thank you Helen; for everything. Oh yeah, you will have so much fun with Helen you will not believe you're learning anything at all, BUT YOU ARE!

I cannot say enough good thing about Helen; she is an extremely capable dog trainer and a genuine person, I highly recommend her.

My experience couldn't have went any better thanks to the people working 9/17/26. Ask for Michael Schindewolf if you're not sure is the best advice I can give. Ps Sofia is doing much better!

She almost caused me to poison 1 when she told me to put a full can of pumpkin in each meal. Luckily a friend is a Vet but lives in VA. When I mentioned it's 1 tsp per 10lbs she struggled with why we were there is we had a vet already. Explained a few times she lives states away. Then she accused my fiancé brought a different woman when she first began with our mate brothers, but it was always me as I found them! Very unprofessional. Always need to ask for answers, whether it's an anal gland expression or a serious ear infection. We wanted everyone to be made aware that she is wrong giving advice and can be very sarcastic if you ask a question! Save yourself the nightmare as I did not want to return after her refusing fiancé to hold his dog while being put down. We did see her when we got our rescues and my fiancé witnessed her disrespect and rude responses, trying hard to shame ya if you ask a question! If your pet is considered a family member like ours are, look for a caring and trusting vet elsewhere as we have many we wish we went with first!
