I bought a service dog for my son with autism. 2 years ago. He was 20 and struggling to live on…read morehis own. We set up several systems including a house close to ours, a live in resident assistant, multiple roommates, but still he was sleeping in late, missing meals, missing school, forgetting his meds. This service dog solved many problems. The dog follows my son around and reminds him to get up, take a walk, eat. She carries his meds in her service vest and stops him from pacing or raging, alerting him to stop and then he remembers to take meds. She rides the bus with him and sits calmly while he works and studies. He is more confident going out and going to school because people can tell he has special needs when they see the dog. I'd say the dog has taken over a good 15 hours of work off my plate in caring for my son and costs less than a nanny for sure. And having the dog has eliminated the seasonal affective disorder. My son is happy and goes for walks regardless of the weather now. Waking up to a beautiful happy golden retriever cuddling you is an antidepressant.

It looks like I was scammed $5000 by David Baron DBA Superdog. He promised me a small female in…read moreJuly 2025, but only offered other dogs since then that were either never picked up or returned. Those dogs were big. According to the contract he would be selecting a female puppy. In August he had a medical and personal issues which put him out for at least 2 solid months. Apparently his wife was taking care of some of the 6 or 7 dogs but not training them. No updates unless I asked. His contract does NOT say the deposit is non-refundable but he apparently already spent my money without ever selecting a dog. I found this out when I emailed him in Dec 22,2025 to let him know I had to just get a smaller dog due to my landlady's wishes. That is when he turned ugly via text. Please heed the reviews and be very very careful with him. I was floored by how brutally mean (and misleading) he actually is. I will go to the CA State consumer affairs dept as well as BBB.

My dog overdosed on his med in the middle of the night (yes, it was my fault ). Took him to the…read moreEmergency service within 30 minutes and the really nice night vet had his stomach empty in no time. He's doing great and the experience was really smooth. And pretty affordable, all things considered. I have one complaint, though. I called twice to the front desk to ask a couple questions about a prescription for my dog. The woman on the phone was not very helpful at all. She couldn't answer my questions and kept referring me to their website, not knowing where on the website I could find what I was looking for.

For close to 40 years I had taken my pets to Berkeley Dog and Cat. I noticed it was going downhill…read moreafter they were bought by Private Equity but continued to take my pets there because of the emergency service they provided. It appears that was not profitable and they closed it. I found a veterinary practice in private hands and am now very happy with the service they provide. The private equity company just ruined a long-established and trusted veterinary practice. Such a shame.

And the older one I adopted has mold and poop covering his cage and the stringy straw items in his enclosure. Last time I was here these animals were not like this. I don't know what happened to Courtney. She was always super helpful and managed the animals well. I have been coming here for years and the animals and enclosures have never looked so bad.
