This will be a bit long. Here's the short version: Six Forks Animal Hospital is too busy. They are…read moreso busy that I believe the level of care they can provide is negatively affected. If you want the best level of care for your pet, go elsewhere. Now for the long version: I had been bringing one of my dogs to Six Forks Animal Hospital for years after having a bad experience at Banfield. My negative experiences started after my dog had an allergic reaction to some fleas he got from a new puppy member of the family. We were prescribed corticosteroids and the sores from the allergic reaction cleared; all was well. Unfortunately the skin sores came back months later and again we were given corticosteroids alongside antibiotics to treat a possible skin infection. Skin cleared up and months later the sores returned. Our dog had bouts of skin sores for years that we continued to battle with the same treatment that didn't seem to be working. Eventually I did some research into corticosteroids and I learned about how terrible the side effects can be; Particularly for long term treatment of illness. I LEARNED THAT CORTICOSTEROIDS CAN MAKE YOUR DOG MORE PRONE TO COMMON BACTERIAL INFECTIONS! After learning this I began to refuse all steroids from Six Forks Animal Hospital. It took years for my dog's hormones to recover but eventually the skin infections stopped. I learned about alternative treatment methods for his skin that worked much better and were much less harmful. Keep in mind that a vet's job is to offer the best level of care possible. I had to spend my own time to learn of a more optimal treatment plan for my dog. Had I not done that, my dog may have continued to deteriorate as corticosteroids can cause a wide range of chronic health conditions such as diabetes (his blood sugar began to rise!), osteoarthritis (he began having trouble using stairs), hearing problems (he eventually went deaf)! The final straw for me was when I brought my young boxer in for some feet allergies. I very clearly and bluntly told the staff that I did not want any kind of steroids to be used for his treatment. During COVID I am not allowed to be present while the vet is providing care to my dog. The front desk called me and told me that I will be billed for a Cytopoint shot (yes, this is what I wanted) AND A KENELOG INJECTION (Kenelog is another corticosteroid!!). I was furious. The staff are obviously not communicating and the vet is obviously not reading my dog's chart fully. I will not be bringing any of my pets to Six Forks Animal Hospital again and I will share my opinions with my friends and family when they are making decisions for their pets. Be careful out there folks. Care for your furry friends and never trust a vet to do their best.

We got scheduled and I Brought my " little bit" in He was very excited, per usual. He may be an older man but he's got big pup energy. Everyone was very sweet and we got signed in. We were seen right away. My pup waa a little too why to get what I needed done but we found options that I feel comfortable with to get him a little more calm down and we scheduled his next visit when he's feeling less excited. The rooms are large and they allow you to go back in the tom with your pup, which is important to me. He did get his nails trimmed, which is nice because a boy his needs his pedicures to keep those talons under control. Lol. I loved the energy and positive feeling from everyone here. They don't feel pushy, let you express what you feel comfortable with, give great options, amd communicate exactly what anything could be or is. Even if nothing is wrong just talk about normal preventative and healthy upkeep. I love how Dr Evans was aligned with my beliefs and what I've learned for having giant breeds. It makes me feel very comfortable and that my baby is in good hands with experienced guidance treat I can trust!! As I mentioned already scheduled our next visit back. Highly recommend!!

I appreciated that there were three separate areas, one for big dogs, one for medium dogs, and a quiet area for small dogs. They also returned leftover food.

We have never had a problem and feel completely comfortable leaving our 'kids' there. Joan sends us a short video of our pups each day so that we can see they are having A BALL while we are missing them from far away. Joan does a great job watching after the dogs. She is a friendly and wonderful person. I can't imagine being more comfortable leaving my dogs with anyone else. And the property is beautiful! Joan only takes in a limited number of dogs at any one time (I think the number is 6 or 8) so each dog gets plenty of attention. The sleeping quarters are clean and each dog has a large area to relax in. Outside there is a HUGE fenced in area that used to be used for horses that the dogs now use to run and play with each other. It's tough to judge a dog camp the first time you see it. Everything may look great and you may have read a review or have been referred by a friend, but you never really know. Its only on the second visit that you get a real indication as to how well the a dog camp treats its guests and you get that indication FROM YOUR DOG. Nowadays we can't get within a half mile of Buzzy's before our dog starts jumping around and singing excitedly in the back of our truck. In short, our dog LOVES to visit Buzzy's Bark-n-Run! Then at the end of the visit I think our pup is actually disappointed to see us when we show up to pick her up! The bottom line is that dogs don't want to leave Buzzy's! This may be the easiest Five Star Review I've ever written for Yelp.

We and our dog had a wonderful experience with Buzzy's Bark-N-Run Dog Camp. The owner, Joan, is…read moreknowledgeable and very caring about all the animals at the farm. Her understanding of dogs is amazing--she was able to correctly assess the personality of our Roxie within two minutes of meeting her--and when Roxie seemed stressed at night, Joan was able to find a solution that calmed her and made her a happier camper. Joan also helped to reduce our stress by giving us text updates and sending us videos of Roxie romping with other campers. After looking at other boarding places with metal crates on concrete floors in giant warehouses, seeing Buzzy's immediately felt like coming home, with fields of green grass for Roxie to run on, and chickens and donkeys for her to watch and bark at. (So, I guess Roxie did fulfill both parts of the "bark" and "run" promise of the camp.) Joan is no-nonsense, the way you want in someone caring for your loved pet...but she is also obviously in love with all the creatures on her farm. Roxie came home happy, healthy, and worn-out. We are thrilled to have found Buzzy's, and we will definitely be boarding Roxie here again.

And while my pet care needs were not for the typical reason of vacation travel, but rather due to my surgical procedure and post-op recovery at home, my experience offers an especially accurate assessment of this professional's level of expertise, since I was present during all of her visits! Moreover, having two adult Salukis not at ease with unknown humans and requiring considerably more daily exercise than the average family pet, I had ruled out several perspective pet-sitting companies before interviewing Lynn, who was the only candidate who understood that if a sighthound manages to get loose, chances are slim that it will survive automobile traffic, due to its athletic speed and desire to chase small wildlife. Her rapport with my two aloof girls was miraculous, and there was never any doubt that they were safe in her care. It is no exaggeration to say that I would have cancelled my surgery if not for Lynn's Compassionate Care!

One of our dogs gets very anxious and aggressive around new people. It takes a long time for him to recognize new people as being safe. One of the caregivers came over for a temperament test and it didn't go well at all. I had high hopes that they could work with him but I quickly realized that they couldn't, and she agreed. The issue is the there is no guarantee that the same sitter will come to your home to watch your pets. I contacted them several months in advance and they still could not work with me to have one person watch my dogs. I understand that this is how they run their business and respect it. That said, I would only recommend them if your dogs are not anxious like mine and are okay with different people coming over to watch them.
