Thanks to Happily Ever After Rescue, we met a sweet pup named Margaret (a.k.a. Margarita ). But the…read moremoment we brought her home, she traded in her cocktail name for a crown and became our little princess, Gracie Mae. From the very start, Kristie was so kind, caring, and devoted to making sure their dogs find the perfect forever homes. You can tell how much love they pour into every one of these sweet pups. Amanda and Danielle, that both fostered her were so caring and helpful with all my extra questions too! Gracie Mae has already stolen our hearts -- she gives the best kisses, loves belly rubs, and always wants to be right in the middle of the family action. She's shaken, not stirred, and now officially ruling our castle. Thanks to Happily Ever After Rescue, Margaret a.k.a Margarita became Gracie Mae -- and we truly got our happily ever after.

Pre-Script: Search HEAR Long Island on Reddit. I wish had…read more Original Post: I'm a person living with a disability, seeking a non-service companion to join my family with my aging service dog. HEAR was aware of this via my detailed application and references. I reached out to HEAR via PetFinder very interested in a pup, Relish, who appeared to be a good match with my family. I entered the adoption process, got all of my references confirmed, completed a virtual home visit, set a meet time, and was sent additional pics and videos of Relish after the visit--all validating Relish as a potential match. It was a very hopeful and exciting moment. However, in the same text I was informed I was approved for adoption from HEAR, I was also informed Relish was just adopted, within 18 hours of my confirmed meetup. Prior to this, I was not informed I was competing for the match. Had I advance notice, I might've made other arrangements, but I wasn't offered the opportunity or the warning. I've volunteered for and dealt with more than a dozen rescue agencies in my region as an advocate and supporter, as well as several others throughout my childhood. None of the agencies I've worked with have been less transparent than HEAR. No one wants to be in the position of visualizing a potential family member in their lives, and planning for that hopeful first meeting, only to have them cancelled from the equation less than 18 hours before the meet--removed with no notice of other variables.Instead, they sent pics of other dogs. I've requested my adoption application with HEAR be closed, as I would never recommend anyone who wishes to ethically enter a relationship with a rescue rely on HEAR for the availability of the hopeful companion, or transparency in general. Reply to HEAR's response to this post: HEAR says there were delays. HEAR says I'd rather garden?? These are absolute falsehoods. The timeline below is clear. All communications and appointments were honored. May 11, Kristie confirmed my May 10 application and requested documentation of my landlord's permission to have a second dog. May 12, I submitted that documentation. May 14, Kristie apologizes for *her* delay, and informs me she'll be reaching out to my three references. All references responded the same day, after I let them know to check their "unknown numbers" folder. Friday, May 15, at 7:28pm, a virtual home visit is requested by Kristie. I was already on my farmstead for the weekend--I detailed the farmstead in my application. I let Kristie know I was upstate, and offered to FaceTime from there or when I got back home. She said she'd wait. I proposed a meet time, but Kristie said it could happen whenever, to just text her when I'm home, that she'd be "around." I texted Monday, May 18 to make arrangements. We set it for the next day, May 19. The virtual visit happened with her partner, Sam, because Kristie was unavailable when I texted. During that meeting, an appointment was made to specifically meet Relish on May 23 at the HEAR event. Prior to the arranged meet date, I inquired of its flexibility because planting became a factor--planting is absolutely critical and 100% dependent on weather and climate. Sam responded that probably wouldn't work. So, I CONFIRMED the original meet time. I very clearly confirmed my motivation and intent to meet and spend time with this specific sweet boy, Relish. Still, he was adopted out from under me. NOT ONCE was I informed there were other applicants for him. Not once were any other factors or obstacles to adopting Relish mentioned. And not once did I miss any appointments or communications. I've dealt with much more honest and ethical agencies. It's HEAR's opaque practices that might hurt their ability to adopt, not this honest review. Post-Script: Sam even mentioned she didn't want to leave Relish alone at night with her dogs, because "god forbid something happen." Apparently, that was a legitimate risk as per Reddit. It's absolutely shocking that injury to fosters is still a risk they take.

Great store! More than always helpful!…read more The store is fantastic. Usually has most things in stock even hard to find items that you can't find in chain stores like Petco etc. , and one thing they have that doesn't exist in a chain store ---EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE! Anything you need they're extremely helpful and happy to find or get. I had my dog training classes here, and that's how I started coming to this location; but I have to tell you the customer service from the store is unrivaled. If there's something you need, just call and check on it. They're happy to check in stock, They also have a website you can order through that too, 99.9% of the time what you're looking for is a stocked item,and on the rare occasion that it is not or you have an item as I did a special cat food recommended by the vet they did not have on the shelf they called another location, had it there for me the next day! I also have a bad back and I cannot carry large bags of dog food for my dog....put my back out once they had the food delivered to my house free of charge which is a service they offer as well; if I go to the store, they are happy to bring it to my car for me if needed. In short, go here, I highly recommend it.

I 100% recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, affordable place to take their pet! Prior to the appointment, the clinic followed up multiple times beforehand with reminders of the appointment time and date, as well as instructions for my dog for the night prior to surgery. The attention to detail is so appreciated here! Upon arriving for my appointment, I met with Dr. Berger and his staff to go over the procedures my dog was undertaking that day. The cleanliness of the office and the obvious experience the staff had with treating their patients was very reassuring for me. The staff also took note that I traveled a few hours to their clinic, and prioritized getting my dog's procedures wrapped up earlier than expected (I was expecting pickup to be around 5pm, but they were done around 2pm!) so that I could travel back home faster. This is so thoughtful and sincerely so appreciated. Upon looking at my dog's teeth, all the plaque and tartar have been removed; his teeth are sparkling white! His incision spot after neutering is also small and tidy. I am extremely grateful to LI S&N for such wonderful care and thoughtful treatment of their animal patients and human customers. I heartily recommend them.

My experience at Long Island Spay and Neuter began on a high note, characterized by exceptional…read morecare and attention for my pets. Dr. Burger, a traditional veterinarian, genuinely connected with his patients, providing compassionate and knowledgeable care. The practice's commitment to affordable spay and neuter services was a significant asset. However, over time, the focus seemed to shift towards profitability. The transition to a larger facility brought changes that negatively impacted the quality of service. The once-familiar voices answering the phone were replaced by unfamiliar staff, leading to frustrating delays in communication. The ability to see Dr. Burger diminished, resulting in a rotating roster of veterinarians that disrupted the continuity of care. Obtaining essential medication for my dogs, particularly their anti-seizure prescriptions, became a cumbersome process. I found myself needing to visit the office monthly or manage complicated interactions with online pharmacies, which added unnecessary stress. Ultimately, Long Island Spay and Neuter has transformed from a trusted veterinary practice into a business that prioritizes profit over patient care. This shift has compromised their integrity and has drawn unfortunate comparisons to less reputable practices in the area. I hope they can realign their focus on the well-being of their patients and restore the trust they once inspired.

Horrible experience…read more For some reason my wife still wanted to use her after last year she cancelled on us due to not having a car and not being sure if her dad could give her a ride to our home in Ronkonkoma. I prefers a streaming conversation on the phone when doing a transaction for the first time with someone. She refused to communicate on the phone while trying to plan trip. Would send generic emails directing me to website as though I was unemployed and had nothing better to do then browse all the pages of her website for information. Then we needed to cancel with 24 hours notice. Although she charged me for each visit separately during the whole week she kept 50 percent for all 20+ visits. Also used generic language referring to "our policy" and "we" to sound powerless to help us regarding her own policies when this is a local small business ran by one person, refusing to speak on the phone and referring me back to her website as she did prior to the cancellation.
