I believe the staff here truly cares about animals and helping within the community. I have seen…read moretheir facility and it is clean. The animals have appropriate accommodations and I recently was interested in adopting a cat or two and was able to meet several. Wish I could take them all. They also work with the Lawrence Humane Society which is another great place. I encourage the public to consider making online donations to help this place as they run on public funding. As a former volunteer and having worked in the animal care field for over 17 years, these jobs are hard work. Being able to provide vet care, food, bedding, etc for many animals in need isn't easy. The staff I dealt with in their adoption center were wonderful. Come here to find your next fur-ever friend.

This facility was the only facility that would see my dog on a Saturday morning for an urgent need…read more 05/23/26 my dog needed seen due to him being unable to walk on his back left leg. Patrick was very kind on the phone and asked if I could be there in 45mins. DONE! Dr. Kate Schoemann examined Pupper and without any x-rays she diagnosed Pupper with a blown knee and a torn meniscus. She explained the surgery process and the potential cost. I asked for some time to weigh things out. She sent Pupper home on pain meds; I did some research and decided against surgery due to the high cost. I tried reaching out via phone to Dr. Schoemann to discuss the pros / cons of a leg brace; I called 4 times between 05/26/26 - 06/05/26 with a stop into the hospital. There was a nice lady working the desk who scheduled a "Phone appt " with Dr. Schoemann to call me 06/03/26 at 2:40p; this call never took place. I am very disappointed for the lack of help I have received in the care of my dog plus pro-longing the potential of him utilizing a brace to assist in his walking. Do Better! My dog is my family; my best friend and I want him to have the best care.

How do you say goodbye to the best dog in the world? My daughter and I had the privilege of loving…read moreMickey for 12 of his 13 wonderful years, and my heart is still breaking. When the time came to let him go, West Ridge Animal Hospital was there for us with incredible compassion and care. They treated Mickey with the gentleness and respect he deserved, and they supported us through one of the hardest moments of our lives. We'll never forget the kindness they showed--not just to him, but to us as well. Mickey was so much more than a pet. He was family. He was joy, loyalty, comfort, and unconditional love. Thank you, West Ridge, for helping us say goodbye with dignity and for making sure Mickey was surrounded by love to the very end. We miss him more than words can say.

Rufus spent some time in Obedience Training with Devin Dultmeier at Great Plains Kennels. I…read morerecommend Devin a thousand times over! He trains dogs full-time, giving them a 6 day a week on hands training. Rain or shine, he is consistent. Even better, he is located conviently in Silver Lake. Every week he gave a report of Rufus's progress along with video updates seen on his Facebook page. Every 2 weeks, owners also got an on hands training in dog handling to better transition our home. If you met Rufus, you know he was a social and friendly puppy. He liked to jump on my daughter and walk under my feet causing tripping. This training has already changed our lives. Rufus is now kennel trained and mostly house broke. No more jumping on Josie, and now I can walk without falling. 2 months is the recommended time for his Obedience Training Program. He also offers training for hunting dogs . Give his page a like. Share his name with friends. And support local!

I called their office and made sure she was close enough to the phone so the man receptionist could hear. My pet was their patient from the time it was first adopted as a puppy. She was almost 4 years old. This was the second time there was an emergency with her, and the last time they tried to turn me away. Yes I always pay my bill in full at the time service is rendered. Again they said they could not work her in and to go else where. I went to an a veterinarian I had no experience with at Gage Animal Hospital. Their office was empty except for the people who worked there. Believe me that is a bad sign. The vet took the dog and sent me away, said to return in 2 hours. They would xray her and wanted to put her to sleep for the procedure. This dog was alert, standing without aid and breathing was slightly labored. An hour later they call and tell me she died. When they put tried to intubate her something went terribly wrong(i was not advised they would do this) and she bleed to death. I think I was dealing with an incompetent vet. Who intubates when there could be something in the throat. Rat poison was mentioned but why didn't they just put a breathing mask on her and test her blood first. I would think a more conservative approach would have been better. Neither office will see any pet of mine again.
