We will definitely choose paw patch if we return to the area!

Traveling with a new dog who was experiencing GI upset & not getting better, I was able to get an…read moreimmediate appointment for the following day - - Saturday when many practices are closed. Dr Ireland saw Zuni, took some labs & came back with a reasonable diagnosis. She eliminated Giardia & bacteria issues & started her on Metronidazole, probiotics & an ID diet. After a few days of this protocol, Zuni is doing much better. Dr Ireland was very instructive, patient, and thorough. I will follow up with my vet when I reach my home, but appreciate Dr Ireland immensely with her diagnosis & help. I would recommend this practice, as staff & vet were kind & professional. Practice was extremely clean & organized.

I love Dakota Hills. Dr. Shipman has been amazing with my senior dogs and now I have a senior cat I…read morewill be taking to him. When my senior female dog crossed the rainbow bridge, Dakota Hills was so compassionate and understanding. I anticipate expense when it comes to good veterinary care, so honestly, the cost doesn't bother me. I had a vet tech once who was very intimidated by my German Shepherd and actually said it outloud that she didn't trust German shepherds. That was the only somewhat negative experience I've had there. Otherwise, it's always been great!

I called two weeks ago to inquire about boarding my dogs and we agreed on times and I made the…read morereservation for the 3rd through the 10th. I was told we were all good that we just needed my vet records from MT. I provided my records, called and verified that they were all good and was told they were. I get a call today telling me one of my dogs was past due on one of his shots and was told not a big deal they can give it to him when he gets there. Keep in mind I got the call today and was supposed to drop dogs off at 10 tomorrow. I get a call around 3 today telling me the lady who called me earlier was wrong and they cant watch the dogs under any circumstance. So 17 hours before my trip they cancel on me I understand the reasoning but had they done there job correctly I would of had 4-5 days to fix the situation instead of 17 hours. Definitely some incompetence somewhere at this place!

Thanks for your tender care. Highly recommend this veterinary clinic. Compassionate and helpful.read more

I was with my previous vet for several years and grew increasingly tired of feeling like they were…read morescheduling multiple appointments for things that could be done at once and constantly trying to sell me on their Paw Plans. I did try a Paw Plan with one of my pets, and felt like I wasn't saving money and was instead losing it. When I rescued a cat and decided to foster it instead of taking it to the Humane Society, I called my vet to ask about the cost of vaccinations, neutering, and the office visit. She spent several minutes trying to sell me on a Paw Plan and was resistant to just simply naming a price. I felt so frustrated! I decided to call West Winds and the receptionist who answered was incredibly friendly and forthright. She named a neutering price that was $200 less than my previous vet. She didn't try to sell me on any plans. She also booked my appointment more quickly. When I got there, I just felt there was a real warmth to their environment and I loved the kitty greeters in the waiting area! My foster kitty (who became my adoptive kitty) was treated incredibly well and he healed quickly. I'll never switch to another vet. It's so nice to find people who clearly care so much about animals. Very, very happy to have this vet in town!

Greg is an all-star dog trainer! I was having issues with my 5-month old puppy after taking her…read morehome from the shelter. She was beginning to start her "adolescent" years soon and it really showed. She went from being a cute puppy who napped all day to a dog who bit everything, became passively disobedient, and didn't know how to utilize her new found energy. I didn't know what to do so I began looking up dog trainers in my area. Enter Greg. I spoke to him on the phone and he addressed all my concerns. He was very understanding and explained how all these tendencies were natural puppy behaviors. I was a bit hesitant to use his service at first but he offered to come to my house for a consultation. When he came, I saw how well he was able to communicate with Snickers and how much passion he had for dog training. He was very accommodating and offered to take her for board and train right away. Throughout the week, he provided me updates via photos and training videos. I saw how happy Snickers was with him and how much she progressed over the days. He was also very responsive when I asked him questions about her training. After her training was complete, I could hardly recognize her anymore cause she was so well behaved! I would highly recommend Greg if you are looking for a dog trainer who loves dogs as much as you do!

Me and my dog Brook met Greg for the first time at an evaluation. He explained the overall gist…read moreabout dog training, showed how obedience and play go together, and the Brook's good potential outcome. Brook liked him a lot! He wanted to go with him and be trained by him since day one. I was a bit amazed because Brook is usually a shy dog who takes time to meet new people and new dogs. Needless to say, I hired Greg for the series of the dog training right away. Week 1: Learned basic skills like "come," "heel," "wait," "leave it," etc. Greg also explained me a lot about the dog training overall and went over double the set time but didn't charge anything extra. He really goes far for you. Week 2: Learned more basic skills + trained longer durations to hold "stay"/"wait." Brook started showing a different attitude. His focus became so much better. Doing homework with Brook got easier. Week 3: Continued to work on the commands and focus. We also discussed how treat-driven training will have to eventually go away. Week 4: We set a goal, which is to pass the Canine Good Citizen test and worked on the list towards that goal. Each session went beyond the set time (Thank you, Greg, for your patience!), and I felt like the value we received was more than I paid for! Brook likes Greg a lot and looks forward to seeing him every time. The weekly training will go on for several more sessions. I'm also thinking of asking him to come around once in awhile after the weekly sessions so we can keep the standard for Brook. I appreciate his passion and generosity for being willing to get something done, no matter how long it takes. He is very patient working in any situation. It's really hard to find a dog trainer like him. Greg is the best!
