We finally had to have one of our dogs put down - our sweet precious English Bulldog went to sleep due to a large cancerous tumor. The staff was sensitive and loving in every way, and helped us through some difficult decisions. No matter how big or how small the issue, Hardwick Pond Clinic has been there for us. And they never gouge or inflate the price - it's all totally reasonable. We HIGHLY recommend Dr. Van DerVelden and his clinic, and we just hope and pray he doesn't retire!

I have spoke to my family members afterward and it brings me to tears when I explain just how calm and understanding of a human being Dr. Sidorsky is. Previously I had set up an appointment for my younger sisters cat and she also reported an amazing experience. I also referred my aunt after hearing about my sisters experience. She also had a great experience. I will definitely be contacting him again when the time comes for my other kitty and I will definitely continue to refer him to friends and family. I wish more vets were as compassionate. Thank you Dr. Sidorsky.

Mixed review--- My kitten suddenly went limp while playing with my family and I rushed him here…read morebecause they're 5 mins away. Kitten was a healthy normal kitten that had seen my regular vet etc. They X-ray'd his chest to find fluid around his heart, the there vet said he most likely had a congenital heart defect that caused this, it's something that happens. Positive note -- they did not charge me for the X-rays being that they did it for teaching purposes, nor did they charge me for the items used to try to resuscitate him. (He was a DOA sadly) so I only paid the Exam Fee and Cremation Fee. The staff members I met were all lovely, helpful, and kind throughout this whole process and I still think kindly of them thinking about this whole experience. Negative/Confusing part- A week later I get a phone call saying I have been reported to the MSPCA officer saying he needs to come to the house to examine the other pets because there were "injuries seen upon further examination that seem to be from foul play or possible strangulation" Here I am devastated and grieving my baby... now add confused, and just taken aback. I understand that they are mandatory reporters in any sort of suspicious circumstances but I'm still confused at why they wouldn't tell me beforehand that they sensed foul play? I'm glad the whole situation is over with and I have my cremated baby back but it all just rubbed me the wrong way.... (My dog is healthy and happy btw, MSPCA officer came out to see him and talk about the situation.)

I recently had to put my dog down for medical issues. The staff were horrible and treated me like I was at an interrogation! It is the owners decision and it broke my heart but what I felt was best for my dog. The staff treated me terribly! Don't they teach compassion in school for this very daunting task of euthanasia?? I would not recommend this practice at all! Go somewhere else! I hope the vet (who is very young) sees this and that her treatment of me follows her to the end of her career! I will never get over the added trauma she and her staff have caused me. I still have nightmares!

Our vet told us we made a good choice with this breed. Leah has been very responsive before and after both purchases of our pups when I have sent updated photos to her.

We ended up at American Goldendoodle after watching a co-workers goldendoodles and falling in love with them. My sister-in-law also has a goldendoodle from American Goldendoodle and we thought that she got lucky with a one-in-million pup. Once we figured out that her pup was also from American Goldendoodle--we knew it was NOT a coincidence that all of pups we knew from Denise/American Goldendoodle had one-in-a-million personalities. It was then we knew we had to go there & I called Denise. These pups are just truly the happiest pups, eager to learn, eager to please and ready to LOVE endlessly. Denise makes the entire process easy and stress-FREE with flexible availability & plenty of options for pups. If you want a pup that will love you endlessly & a positive, memorable dog buying experience--you have to go to American Goldendoodle. I promise, you won't regret it. Thank you so much, Denise! Once little Scout is fully trained, we will be back to get her a sibling! :)

She is healthy, playful, and full of personality -- affectionate when we need comfort and silly when we need a laugh. Her temperament is everything we hoped for: gentle, smart, and easy to train. The whole experience with Denise was wonderful. Communication was clear and supportive throughout the process, and it was obvious how much love and care goes into raising these puppies. Penny is so well-socialized and confident -- you can tell she was raised in a nurturing environment. We couldn't be happier with Penny and feel so grateful to American Goldendoodlefor giving us such a special addition to our family!"

I recently moved back to my hometown of Westfield and looking through my first Pennysaver, I saw…read morethe advertisement for this business. I was excited since I needed a groomer for my two Furr-babies. They are brothers but one takes after their dad who happens to be a Maine Coon, so needing a local place to cut their claws and shave Louie, the Maine coon of the two, was essential. I called and spoke to the owner, Nicole, who was such a pleasure and made sure to ask me the right questions as to what I needed and wanted for Louie so she could book enough time for the appointment. I also learned that she only has one animal at a time in the grooming room so as to not stress the animals out anymore than necessary, which I LOVED! When my appointment day came, they were very sensitive to the fact that my boys DO NOT like going into their carriers so they ride free in the car. I bring the carriers in with me because they are extremely willing to go into the carriers knowing they will be going home in them. Nicole was very understanding and since all Huey Hefner needed done was his claws, he was brought in first. By the time I went back out to the car to get Louie Dewey, Huey was all set and in his carrier! So she immediately got down to business with Louie and made quick work of him. I was so impressed with how fast she was because she came out to help other customers along with telling me how well he was doing. I will recommend Nicole, and of course her mom, (which I'm soooo embarrassed to admit I don't remember her name....and SHE even gave Louie a smiley face sticker because of how well he did!), to anyone and everyone! Nicole's pricing is UNBEATABLE also! Tipping her 20% on top of the cost was STILL under what I was paying elsewhere. THANK YOU Nicole for taking care of my boys!

I'm very happy with K-9 & Felines, knowing Leah will always be in good hands and home quickly!

My wife and I dropped our dogs off for a weekend of boarding and grooming. We left instructions for…read morethe groomer to groom our boy and do a practice grooming of our girl. We were also told that the grooming would be recorded so that we could watch the session if anything weird happens. When we picked up our dogs, it became clear that the boy's grooming was incomplete. He had little knots on his head and a large knot on his tail, as well as a new bald spot on his chest. When we spoke to the groomer about it, she said that he was difficult and wouldn't sit still so that she couldn't complete it, and she said that the bald spot was a cowlick. This didn't *seem* right, because he gets groomed 4 times a year and in the previous place they never had any issues with him at all, and we pet his chest all the time and would've noticed a bald cowlick spot before. She was also not told that the girl was supposed to get a pretend grooming session at all, so that never happened. Since the boy has never been an issue before, we wanted to see the video that we were told we could see if we requested it (we wanted to know what might've set him off), but then we were told that we couldn't because the video system has been down for weeks. The manager I spoke with didn't care and just told me that the groomers rent out the rooms so they aren't responsible for what they do. We contacted the owner but she hasn't responded and instead blocked us on the company Facebook page. Best case, this place has terrible communication amongst the staff and the groomer, poor customer service, and a broken video system. I wouldn't trust my dogs there.

Our 3.5 year old Yorkie, Loki, was so full of…read moreanxiety that he would literally run around the house terrified for four hours straight barking and "screaming" as we called it (like the screaming goat) as late as midnight. It wasn't his fault, but we had to do something. He was taking medication recommended by our vet at the time. Christina's first visit was spent talking to us through Loki's barking and crying from his crate literally right next to us. She could see that in this state, he needed help before he needed training. She recommended we talk to our vet about a different medication, as she suspected the one he was taking was actually making his anxiety worse. She also recommended a change in his diet from store bought (high end) to homemade. We agreed to do these things and meet again in two weeks. When she came back, Loki was a different dog. He still needed training and still had anxiety, but we could now learn how to desensitize him to the things he was afraid of. (Doorbell, packages, strangers on walks, other dogs) Christina taught us the skills to train Lokie on these issues. Desensitizing will take time and commitment on our end and we are doing our best. :) We were not looking to teach our dog tricks, he does know the basics now though. We were looking for peace for Loki and our family. We are able to sit with him and take him places once again. THANK YOU CHRISTINA!!
