This past Monday, I rescued Miss Pennywise (AKA Penny) from really crappy living conditions in a sewer at the 485 inner/74 exchange in Matthews. I took her to a local vet for a quick check-up, rabies vaccine and distemper shot. She was remarkably healthy but definitely needed to be spayed. The next available appointment wasn't for a few weeks so I was in the market for a local-to-me vet that didn't cost a fortune.
I was recommended to ARK by a fabulous local rescue group, Friends of Feral Felines (look them up!). I called on Wednesday and got an appointment for her spay very next day. FYI: They're running deals on spay/neuter on Tuesdays/Thursdays through the end of January (get in touch NOW!).
I'm so glad I made that call! When we visited this morning, we were greeted so warmly and I knew instantly that I was handing Penny over to very caring people. Spoiler: I'm pretty sure they'd keep her if I gave them a chance, LOL!
The spay went smoothly and they also took care of an umbilical hernia Penny had on her tum. When I went to pick her up tonight, they were gushing about how sweet she is (aside from one moment of hissing). I also got a tour of the facilities - it's so cutting edge! I knew right away that ARK is the perfect vet to care for my sweet girl.
We're going back to visit in a couple weeks for Penny's distemper booster. The staff is amazing - it's so obvious that they love their jobs and they definitely give every patient the very best care. Speaking of care, they care for all types of animals (ARK, get it?) - from cows and horses to bunnies and more!
The facility is brand new and has equipment and tech that I've only seen in movies. They have every service imaginable to keep your pets/herd/ferals healthy and happy. I cannot recommend ARK enough - they've made a very stressful situation so much better and I trust them completely with Penny's care.
If you're looking for a new vet, second opinion or a quote for services, please call ARK. They are an amazing practice with spectacular people! read more
