For those who may not be aware, Tar River Veterinary Hospital is under new ownership. Our pets have…read morebeen patients there for nearly five years, but that relationship has now come to an end. About 10 days ago, our daughter brought her beloved cat to Tar River Veterinary Hospital for a flea issue. A veterinary technician applied a topical flea treatment during that visit. Yesterday, after continuing to see fleas, our daughter called the office to ask whether a second treatment was necessary. She was told yes and instructed to bring the cat in. When she arrived, a second dose of the same medication was applied. Only after administering the treatment did the technician review the chart and realize the cat had already received the identical medication just nine days earlier--far too soon for another dose. At that point, they quickly washed the application area with Dawn dish soap and instructed her to take the cat home and monitor for signs of overdose, including drooling, seizures, or neurological symptoms. She was told that if any of these occurred, she should take the cat to an emergency veterinarian. There was no apology, no acknowledgment of the error, and no offer to keep the cat for observation--despite having just warned her of potentially serious side effects. She was simply sent home to monitor the situation on her own. The following day, my wife went to the clinic seeking an explanation and to express our concerns about how the situation was handled. One would expect the first question to be whether the cat was okay--but that was not the case. This entire experience was extremely stressful and deeply disappointing. It has left us with little confidence in the clinic's attention to detail or concern for patient safety. As a result, we will not be returning.

Like Gabriella, our dog was on contract with a chain vet, and the place in Brier Creek was a circus, always busy, and the ladies up front were constantly on the phone, so BCAH was the answer for us. Friendly and knowledgeable staff and vets, and able to schedule an appointment as quickly as needed, always a good sign. Our pup is old (16 years), kind of blind, definitely deaf, the usual arthritis in the hips, etc but healthy otherwise! Dr. G added another pill to his usual regimen, which has helped his mobility. He refuses to get sick! He has been there to get his nails trimmed recently, and the hospital is so convenient, and the vibe is welcoming. Definitely recommend Brier Creek Animal Hopsital!

It was $3k for the fence install and 2 collars. Okay, since other wireless containment was not good…read morefor our wooded property and we wanted the dogs to stop chasing the deer. About a month after the installation, I noticed that the electrical outlet in my pump house wasn't working. Called the electrician and they identified the problem was a cut line when the Invisible Fence installer had trenched to bury the wire.. Since we couldn't prove that the installer had done the damage (we seldom check the pump house unless there is a problem), Invisible Fence declined to pay for the repairs. $3k repair cost that wasn't covered by insurance. Ugh! And last week our 7-year-old grandson attached a collar to his remote control car and launched the collar into the woods. Spent hours looking for it to no avail. Called Invisible Fence for a replacement collar and the cost was $400! My jaw hit the floor. When I expressed my shock at the price, the person on the other end suggested that I take the trainer base out into the woods and see if I could hear the collar beeping in order to find it. I did ask her if she had lost her mind because an area that large, to hear a light beeping from the collar, I would have to be belly-crawling on the ground and get lucky that I ran across it because the beeping is so faint. So, if I had just called a fence company and had the same area fenced in with a chainlink fence, I would be out about the same amount of money. I did my due diligence when looking for dog containment options. Invisible Fence is NOT the ideal choice.

The Doctor who came to the house was gentle, kind and respectful. She arrived in a small car and on time. Very peaceful and nothing scary about her. My pet was euthanized with a peaceful injection by a doctor who made my pet feel comfortable and not afraid. Also relevant is the employee who scheduled the appointment was very helpful and provided much needed therapy for me as I phoned the business number to schedule an appointment. It was an emotional conversation for me and she was pleasant, professional and pleasing. I appreciate her too. I have other pets and I definitely will use Azure Holland service again when the time comes. I hope this helps somebody. It will not be fun. You and your family will feel better.
