Title: A Stellar Experience at Badger Creek Veterinarian and Hunter Stallion Station Located in…read moreWilton Ca. Rating: (5/5 stars) As a dedicated pet owner and Equine owner, finding the best veterinarian clinic for my companions has always been a top priority. Fortunately, my quest led me to the exceptional Badger Creek Veterinarian and Hunter Stallion Station, and I can confidently say that it stands out as the best vet office I've ever encountered. From the moment I stepped through their doors, I was warmly greeted by their attentive and friendly staff. Dr. Robert Hunter, the heart and soul of the clinic, exudes a passion for animal care that is evident in every aspect of his practice. His expertise and gentle approach make him the ideal veterinarian for any pet. He took the time to listen to my concerns and answered all my questions, putting my mind at ease about my pet's health. The support team at Badger Creek is second to none. Alturo, Alturo, Felix, Amy, and Cheryl Bellew, among others, work seamlessly together to ensure the clinic runs smoothly. They are knowledgeable, compassionate, and truly love what they do, which shines through in their interactions with both pets and their owners. I felt reassured knowing that my pets were in the hands of such a dedicated and caring crew. The facilities at Badger Creek are immaculate and equipped with the latest technology, showcasing their commitment to providing top-notch medical care. They offer a wide range of services, from routine check-ups to complex surgeries, ensuring that each pet's unique needs are met with the utmost attention and expertise. One particular aspect that sets Badger Creek apart is their emphasis on educating pet owners. Dr. Hunter, Amy, and his team take the time to explain treatments, preventive measures, and proper pet care, empowering owners to be proactive in their pet's well-being. This personalized approach fosters a sense of trust and partnership, making the experience all the more rewarding. On several occasions, I've had to contact the clinic during emergencies, and the staff has always responded promptly and with genuine concern. They prioritize urgent cases and handle them with the highest level of professionalism and care. I cant thank Cheryl Bellew enough~ I am not the easiest customer to deal with as my animals mean more to me than people lol. I tend to panic and Cheryl knows how to calm me down and make me feel confident. In conclusion, Badger Creek Veterinarian and Hunter Stallion Station have exceeded all my expectations for a veterinary clinic.

My trainer Kristin is kind and…read moregreat at giving direction and teaching, and the lesson horse I rode - Soldier - is sweet and patient. He's an gentle soul! If he felt me leaning to far off from center or too far forward he'd stop so I wouldn't fall off. This made me feeling more comfortable with learning to post to trot. Looking forward to my next lesson!

**** Child Endangerment**** Gaslighting*** We are no longer…read moreattending. Brittney, the owner, attempted to scare a horse, by slapping it very hard and loudly, that my daughter was escorting out of the barn. My daughter, a beginner and a child, was holding the reins of the horse tightly. Brittney hit the horse from behind, out of sight of my daughter and the trainer. Luckily the horse did not take off running. My child, could have been seriously hurt. This is the first time that I had seen her violently hit a horse. If you have children, please be careful. There are humans that will try to hurt you or retaliate against you via your child. And there are people that will put your child in danger, not care, and attempt to twist the truth. I believe the owner targeted my child because of the Yelp review I did from April 2022. Most horseback riding accident victims are girls between the ages of 10 and 14. This is my daughter's age group. Children do not have the reaction capabilities that adults have. Safety for girls in this age group needs to be taken very seriously. I sent them an email expressing my concern for my child's safety. And instead of apologizing, they decided to lie and gaslight me... Examples of their gaslighting- (Twisting reality) I was told that I wasn't there when it happened and I heard about it from someone else... (The truth) I WAS there. I was THERE. I did not hear about the smack from anyone else. I heard the smack and I heard the trainer immediately ask Brittney, "Did you just smack Misty?" And Brittney said, "Yes, haha! I told you Misty wouldn't do anything." I HEARD that conversation, because I was THERE. Testing the horse's reaction to being loudly hit like that while a child is holding it is unprofessional, irresponsible and disgusting. (Reality) Everyone in the barn looked shocked and looked towards Brittney because the noise (of the hit) was so loud. I SAW that, because I was there. And I looked too. It sounded like a book being dropped. (Denial of reality) They denied that Brittney hit the horse and said it was a "pat." (Reality) It was a very loud smack/hit. (Minimization/confusion) They said I was the only one "expressing extreme concern about a horse being pat." My concern was/is/has been my daughter's safety and her holding a horse that was getting loudly hit. And they said I am at fault for not immediately expressing my concern to the trainer. And I did speak to Brittney after she was done teaching her student. If you bring up any concern to the owner she will yell at you OR flat out gaslight you. And the rider's safety is not always taken into consideration, depending on the student. Some students will be discriminated against. No, I do not recommend this business.
