    My friend recommended Dr. MICHELLE @CPC in Forest grove last year when my sweet 9 year old Golden…read moreRetriever, Belle, had an UTI that want responding to natural remedies. Prescribed an rx, suggested a great cherry supplement to promote UT health and some lightly medicated wipes. Bella was totally at ease and felt better within a couple of days. July 26, this year Bella was acting strange, the light went out of her eyes and she's just looked at me helplessly. Then I noticed her back legs were outstretched while she lay flat on her tummy. Then her front legs slipped out from her and remained out stretched as well. What is happening? I sat down in front of her asking what was wrong and tried to help her sit back up, but when I did she just started at me and they slid back down. Then her bladder and bowels expelled while she never made a move. I quick and got my neighbor who suggested we make a hammock out of a blanket to get her downstairs and into my car. She was 75 lbs...not fat ir overweight though. Anyway, I drove to CPC from Bethany where Alex (one of their technicians) met me and carried her quickly into the back room where Dr. Michelle was. After a few minutes(which seemed like eternity to me) Dr. Michelle came in and sat down beside me explaining that my Belle was non-responsive and believes she had a severe stroke. Me, being ignorant to this condition replied..'ok, what do we do next? How long will she be like this' Dr. Michelle took my hands and looked me in the eyes and said, Kathleen, Bella is unresponsive...' after a couple of seconds my mind caught up with her words and my heart broke. I kept asking if she was sure while crying my eyes out and trying to catch my breath. She quickly reached for a box of tissue for me. And hugged me. She said if it were her dog,(she has a golden) this is what she would do..as she was totally unresponsive. She asked if I would like them to bring my girl into the exam room where I was and of course I somehow communicated, yes. Alex brought my sweet girl in in a blanket and layed her down. I layed in the floor next to her just holding her...nose to nose, letting her, trying to see if her eyes would flinch or her ear twitch. This was the most tragic and unexpected thing in my life. Dr. Michelle told me to take my time and she would check on me soon. After a but she came in and explained about the first step. I just continued to lay next to my Belle talking to her softly. You know the rest of the story I'm sure. They helped me through every step and I cannot imagine a more compassionate group of people through all of this. Afterward she gave me some time to lay with her until I was ready to get up. So, writing this was a bit cathartic for me. My point is, even in this most difficult time, I'm so glad Companion Pet Clinic was there for us. A MILLION THANKS Dr. MICHELLE AND TEAM. #bella#bestfriendandfaithfulcompanion

    I've been with this office for a few years since moving to Oregon. The main vet, Michelle B, is…read morevery compassionate and thorough. She worked well with my very anxious dog. However, in my dog's greatest time of need, I have had no responses to the two urgent voicemails and was on hold for over 15 minutes trying to find out what the plan was going to be for my dogs care. I spoke with staff at my dog's last visit 4 days prior and they stressed to me to just let them know when it's Cheeto's time and they'll accommodate me/us. I ended up hanging up after the long hold and called a veterinarian down the street, who are able to get Cheeto in very quickly (I am grateful for that because my beloved dog is suffering.) Additionally, when I was a client here at Companion, any prescriptions that Cheeto needed were at least 3 times more expensive than anywhere else I looked. And they charge you a fee for the prescription to be sent out to another (cheaper) prescriber - and med was still cheaper elsewhere after the addition of their fee. In conclusion, I am very disappointed at their response (or lack of) when my dog is in such critical need.

    I only used Betsy's services for a week and a half while I rented her basement apartment. She…read morevisited my dog twice per day-my pup is shy and anxious and would not have anything to do with Betsy. To her credit, I did see that she was making progress with my pup, which is no easy feat. Betsy and I were discussing my dog attending her daycare because my dog does infinitely better in a group setting. In addition, it was convenient for me for obvious reasons. My dog has gone to daycare for the better part of the year that I've had her, and she thrives in that environment. Never once have I had a complaint or negative report about my pup's behavior at daycare. In this conversation, Betsy used a condescending tone to refer to my dog as "difficult ". I informed Betsy that we no longer had an interest in her services, as I don't want my dog to be cared for by someone who would speak about her in that way. However, that's not why I'm leaving this review. I'm leaving this review because of something I observed with regards to her dog daycare. What her dog daycare consists of is several dogs hanging out with Betsy's daughter, Amelia (my best guess is she's a teenager)in their living room/dining room/kitchen area all day. Betsy is typically gone all day (8-3:30) from what she told me. There is a narrow dog run, running along one side and the back of the house. The daycare dogs are let out briefly to do their business a few times a day. While I was a tenant there, I had to do my laundry on the third floor of the house, above the daycare. This required me to wade through the group of dogs each time I went up and down the stairs to switch loads from the washer to the dryer. Every single time I did laundry during the month + I lived there, I noticed that Amelia was never downstairs with the dogs during daycare time. She was always in her room with the door closed. I suppose it's possible that she went in her room each time she heard me coming, but sound carries very well in that house and I'm sure that I would have heard her moving. I would also have considered this discovery a coincidence had it not happened multiple times. My primary inspiration for making this review is the fact that the very last time it happened, while sitting on my couch reading, I heard a kerfuffle between the daycare dogs. It did not sound like a fight, just like the dogs getting rowdy. Eventually, things settled down. Shortly afterwards, I had to go upstairs and get my last load of laundry out of the dryer. While making my way through the sea of dogs, I noticed that one of them was now holding one of its front paws up and was wearing a plastic cone around its neck. I only observed the dog for a couple of minutes, but it was never once willing to be weight-bearing on that paw. I hope that the dog wasn't seriously injured. Even more so, I hope that this is the only time anything like that has ever happened to any dogs that have attended this daycare. And even more so than that, I still have hope that it all was a complete coincidence that the dogs were never being cared for when I made my trips up and down the stairs. To be transparent, Betsy and I did not have a positive dynamic as landlord-tenant. Interactions were never heated, but Betsy did tell me that she is a very sensitive person and perhaps her daughter is as well. She may have been encouraged/wanted to avoid me due to the tension between her mother and I, despite the fact that I was polite to Amelia each time I saw her and professional to her mother. Bowser's Best Buddy is far different from any dog daycare I have ever seen, and I've been taking my dogs to daycare for over fifteen years. It's basically akin to your dog being at home, hanging out with a group of friends, sometimes supervised and sometimes not, with a potty break or two sprinkled in. There are no cameras for pet parents to observe their pups. I've never considered taking my dog to a daycare that doesn't offer this and my observation here has cemented that requirement for any pet care provider we use.

    I have been a client of Betsy and Bowser's Best Buddy for about 9 years, starting when I had one…read morecat, then two, then a puppy, and finally a second puppy who is now an amazing 3.5-year-old dog. I know that Betsy is partially to thank for the wonderful companion Gromit has become. Betsy is conscientious and communicative, and she is very connected to the pets in her care. She spends time training them in addition to getting them out to stretch their legs and go potty, and she adjusts her training and walks to fit the dog's needs and personality. When my pup boarded with Betsy, he was treated like family. If Gromit could write a review, he would say he loves Betsy and Amelia as much as he loves me, and he wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bowser's Best Buddy to all of his furry friends!

    I was so excited to find a new groomer right by my house but I was so disappointed. Right when I…read moregot there the lady was so rude to me. I said I wanted him "cleaned up" and wanted his hair shorter but not quite shaved. I guess this wasn't enough for her because she insisted that I tell her exactly what I wanted and saying cleaned up means "nothing to her". I showed her a picture of the last time he was groomed and she said "that tells me nothing". Every groomer I've used in the past helps me figure out the best cut, but she was not interested in helping me out at all. Sorry I'm not in the industry and don't know exactly what to ask for. I just felt like such a bother to her. He did end up looking great and it only took them about an hour but I am just too disappointed with how I was treated to go back.

Heather was adamant, and so I respected her judgment, so when my beautiful old border collie was snapping at her and she didn't feel safe, I respected that. To this day, my beautifu,l cranky oldl boy was in my arms. Heather helped me to see that he needed my love instead of my help. He died only a few months later, but lived in comfort and without pain. Heather was right. I still bring my little pup to her, and this special dog-of-my-heart gets a beautiful bath and haircut, and peaceful nail trimming. She LOVES Pet Spa. Can't argue with a beloved dog about that.
