Buckle up and please read through this one will be a long one…read more I brought my dog here, my baby, on September 28th 2026 after begin denied help from countless vets, animal hospitals, and animal emergency rooms. (I live an hour away) When Laurel heard what was going on with my Pinto she said bring him in, let's get him fixed and we will figure out the rest after. I brought him in and he ended up having to have emergency surgery for an obstruction that had ended up rupturing because I had spent days trying to find someone to help me with Pinto. However with the amazing work and quick action of Laurel and her entire team Pinto made it through his surgery. Pinto had stayed a few days and was released home on Saturday October 3rd 2026 in the evening and when we went back for his recheck on Monday he unfortunately had another rupture and went right back for another emergency surgery. It scared me so much that he was going back under after such a short period of time but staff reassured me they would do everything they could for Pinto. That is exactly what they did Pinto made it through surgery and is still in recovery but he is looking better then ever I know this through the video and photos that they have sent me. I have read many of the reviews as well before writing this and I wanted to address a few things. Firstly to everyone who has had the experience of needing to bring their fur baby in for an emergency I am truly sorry you have had to experience it is absolutely gut wrenching. However there are some things that I have found consistent with the bad reviews that need to be considered by any new patients looking at those reviews. 1. The staff being rude and or cold. When I first walked in the door I too had that first initial reaction that the staff were harsh with how they spoke. Once Pinto was out of the woods though I was able to reflect better without my emotions clouding me. Laurel and her team noticed and reacted to the fact that they could see Pinto was in very critical condition and I had been rambling explaining the situation. That supposed "coldness" lasted only while we were in the danger zone because they were worried about him. I have never had to leave him with anybody but this is a team I trust wholeheartedly with my pets. 2. The fact that it is low cost, some of the same surgeries that I was quoted at other places was about 10k and here it was about a quarter of that and although each situation is different which means different prices. All I know is that this was 100% my fault because I know how much vets cost and yet I didn't plan for an emergency for my baby and I have learned my lesson and will not only start putting money aside in case of anything and possibly even get pet insurance. All I know is that the staff at Kinder4Rescue saved my Pinto and they did not judge me for me messing up as a pet parent and they worked with me and my situation when 20+ other vets wouldn't give me the time of day. 3. My last point is going to be regarding updates on your pet during/after procedures and or care within the facility. I have had different people from the team reach out to me at different stages of Pintos stay including a photo of him the morning after his surgery. However, if I want an update anytime throughout the day I call and they have always been more than happy to tell me what has been going on with Pinto and how he has been doing. They are an extremely busy hospital and just like human hospitals they aren't going to update you every 1-2 hours (as much as we want that it's just not feasible) however as I stated above they were more than happy to answer any questions I had if I called. In conclusion, Kinder4Rescue is a place I would 1000% recommend for your fur babies. It is always nerve wrecking leaving them with someone especially when some situations are dire but take with a grain of salt the complaints you see here as they are coming from angry and emotional pet parents; and although they have a right to feel all of those things it is not okay that out of anger they could write a review that deters another pet parent from a place that actually cares about the animals.

My vet referred me to this place because she couldn't help my cat anymore since the mass on her…read moreback leg needed to be surgically removed. When you call, you'll get an answering machine that will give you a breakdown of services. You can go to their website to read about it too. I emailed the clinic Minnie's medical records on a Friday afternoon and requested intake forms to complete ahead of time. They replied within 1.5 hours and instructed to write in blue ink. On Monday, I brought my forms, arrived at 7:30am and parked on the street for two hours after 8am. There were three pet parents ahead of me. Also, you can park behind the building. There are three spaces that you can double park while the other two is reserved. Once they opened, they only allowed 1-2 pet parents at a time. I waited about 20 minutes and the vet assistant saw me immediately and took Minnie in the exam room. He said that they can remove the mass on her leg, but they have to do blood work first to make sure that her lungs and stomach were clear. The vet assistant took Minnie to the back room to do the test. After he took her to the back room, I had to complete more paperwork and paid via Zelle since they charge 3% if you use a card. They do have payment plans through Cherry but the clinic still charge 3% if you choose this option. The price is comprehensive which includes the lab test, xray, overnight stay, cone, medication, biopsy test and suture removal. They do the blood work, X-rays and exam in morning then surgery in the afternoon. This entire process took about 4 hours. They were very thorough with all the tests and evaluation. They gave me options to remove the mass or amputation. I had decided to remove the mass rather than amputate my 16 years old baby which would require her to learn new motor skills. That night, they called and texted me at 7:30pm. "Hi this is Kinder4Rescue letting know that Minnie is doing well and resting comfortably after the procedure. We will give you a call tomorrow afternoon after the doctor examines her and let you know what time she will be ready to go home." It's Tuesday and they called at 12:37pm that Minnie is ready for pickup and that she's doing well. They also texted that she's ready. I got there a little before 5pm and there was one patient ahead of me picking up their dog so we had to wait about 10 minutes. Crystal brought Minnie out then explained the medication schedule both verbal and written. Overall, we are very blessed for the vet to refer us to a surgical clinic that did an amazing job. Furthermore, they do non-anesthetic dental cleaning at a reasonable price so I will start going here. Honestly, I was a little nervous at first but I had faith in my vet and trusted her expertise. Anyway, I highly recommend this clinic and they have a customer for life.

From our very first conversation, months before Rocco was even born, to the present day, Brian has always been there with his knowledge, care, and support.

The socialization these puppies receive from interacting with the other dogs at Brian's home is amazing and has made such a difference. Rocco was a in the process of being potty trained when we brought him home, thanks to being accustomed to using pee pads. It's clear how much time, effort, and care Brian puts into raising his puppies and setting them up for success. All in all, I'd rate the entire experience an 11/10. We couldn't be happier with Rocco or have asked for a better dog. We're incredibly grateful to Brian and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a French Bulldog!

After landing on a Havanese (after some deep searching for the best breed for myself and my…read morefamily), I found Marti of Harris Havanese in Redondo Beach. Choosing Marti was easily the best choice I could have ever made and I am forever a client of Marti's. I will never look elsewhere when adopting my next Havanese (or a breed that isn't a Havanese, for that matter). I adopted Cookie, formally Cartier, from the "C" litter. From our first phone call in Fall 2024, Marti was attentive to the details of my life and what kind of puppy temperament would be best fit for my lifestyle. She is kind, SO communicative, and the most detail-oriented, loving, and caring person/breeder. Seeing how loved these puppies are far before they are even born was constant reassurance that I made the best choice. I would receive multiple texts/pictures/videos a day when Cookie was born. So anxious and excited to get my puppy, Marti answered all of my questions and was always so reassuring and kind. Cookie came to me loving her crate (this was a game changer), being exposed to so many sights and sounds (her groomer says she is better behaved than adult dogs she's been grooming for years ), and is the epitome of a perfect puppy and I truly owe it all to Marti because she set Cookie (and the rest of her litter) up for complete success. Everyone in my life is so surprised when they hear how young Cookie is because she is truly so well behaved, has a great sense of independence, and loves to just hang with our crew. Thank you to Marti and Gracie for loving these puppies with your whole heart. You both feel like family and I cannot express my gratitude for how you raised little Cookie.

I wanted a female and there was 1 male & 1 female left. All the other puppies from the litter were spoken for. I quickly fell in love with Roxie and gave my deposit that night. I had to wait another month until the puppies were old enough to go to their new homes. Marty updated me with photos of my puppy and she also provided me important paperwork to look review. The entire process was very easy. The home where the puppies were living was very clean and orderly. Marti truly has the puppies, best interest and was so sweet and caring and accommodating to me. I had asked if she could keep the puppy for one more week because of my busy work schedule, and she was more than happy to do that. I have never purchased a dog before, but this process was very easy. My puppy is absolutely precious and everybody that meets her is obsessed with her. She is an absolute delight, and very well-behaved. I might add. I highly recommend Harris Havenese if you are thinking about getting a Havanese puppy. Marti made it very clear that she's available for any questions or concerns that I might have. She is very well educated on this breed and I had full confidence in her from the moment I spoke to her on the phone.
