    Meet Porkchop!
    Kim K.

    I went to four shelters and a private rescue before making the drive to Brandywine Valley SPCA. Their website was great and convinced me to make the trip. They seem to be on top of keeping it updateThey had so many more dogs than everywhere else I had tried. The selection included every size, age and personality. We had lots of requirements regarding age, getting along with kids and other animals and they had several for us to chose from. The volunteers were amazing and helpful. The staff was great, although they were crazy busy the day we were there (a Sunday). Long story short, we found the sweetest dog. He has fit well into our crazy family and we love him dearly. Keep up the good work! Need a puppy, dog, cat or kitten? Go here.

    Many kind animal lovers helping make matches - did NOT appreciate the pet insurance hard sell before they would finalize our match!

    I've been bringing my pets here for about 2 years. They helped me to treat and ultimately put to…read morerest my 16 year old dog Ody, 15 year old cat Oscar, and my 16 year old cat Oliver last year within a few months of each other. It was fucking brutal. They were my family and my responsibility and I work from home so I was there for every moment of their decline. They helped me identify when was the right time with each of them. I can't express how valuable that certainty is after being burnt out from waking up in the middle of the night constantly to clean up vomit and struggling to get them to eat all day. I reflect on it constantly when my mind wanders but I feel reassurance instead of guilt/shame. The process was beautiful compared to previous experiences with colder, less competent vets. My only regrets are that I didn't get them on pet insurance to help better accomodate their end of life discomfort and off set the cost of their testings sooner. They reminded me about the value of pet insurance and helped me get all of my current pets onto policies through my wifes workplace benefits. The policies already saved me about a thousand already and literally the next week my dog Mochi ate something that nearly obstructed her bowels and cost us 200 instead of 800. I got a new puppy Spaetzle and they treat him like a king. The front desk folks make me feel like a celebrity when I bring him in because he's so damn cute and sweet. They even try to pronounce his name correctly despite its germanic difficulty. They even send automatic "Happy Birthday" emails for your pets. It inspired me to put them in my calendar and celebrate them. Infact its Mochis birthday today, that's why I'm writing this because I plan to try to celebrate their birthdays moving forward so I can feel less remorse and more pride in the quality of life I'm able to provide. That's the kind of change they helped me make.

    We used to love this vet. However I guess things have changed since selling the practice.

Also, if you need an appointment same day for an issue they usually will not be able to accommodate and will refer you to a referral hospital which costs $500 just to walk through door. I need a vets office who is able to see us if needed for my pets.

We took the 6 class behavior training 1 for puppies ( our dog was 5 months old when we started) and when we finished we got an email asking us to repeat the class. Two classes after we got another email asking us not to come back. They also suggested that there was something wrong psychologically with our dog and asked us to look into medicating him. At that time we were devastated with the news and we were really concerned with the situation we were in. We thought our dog was a lost cause and felt hopeless. That was a few months ago, we since started training with a new trainer and our dog is amazing. We made more progress in two classes with a trainer that had experience with the breed than in all the months we had at the DTCCC. We had to work really hard to get him to "un learn" the bad habits he had picked up at the Dog Training Center of Chester county. We never had to medicate him, and there's nothing wrong with our dog. Before signing up with them I had e-mailed them asking if they had any experience with the breed and they said that they had. I sincerely doubt that after seeing the way they dealt with my dog. There are some other reviews that say that they're not good trainers for working breeds and I agree with that. If you have sociable breeds that are easy to train I'm sure that the DTCCC will do a fine job, but if you have a working breed that needs a strong hand and firm leadership you'll do better looking for it somewhere else. With all of that said I want to make a note that our trainer, Scott, was amazing. He was extremely helpful and never made us feel un-welcomed. We could tell that he was making an honest effort to train our dog within the limitations of the class. After we got kicked out he continued to reach out to us and offered help. We never got a refund for the classes that we didn't take after they kicked us out.
