My dog was in a medical crisis when I took her in. We saw a new veterinarian, a female, who I do not recall meeting before. It was getting close to the end of the day, and I felt we were being rushed out. We were told they couldn't treat her because nobody would be there overnight (which is a change from their previous practice.) I was referred to an emergency hospital in Lexington because she said my dog needed an oxygen chamber. This was one of the two hospitals the said "they always work with." She did offer to do exrays and a blood test and said she would send the results to the emergency hospital. I allowed her to do the tests, and I believe my dog may have been hurt more during that process. When she came back, her tongue was blue. We took my dog to the recommended place. My dog suffered for most of the way and passed away just as we arrived. They took her in anyway, I think to see if there was anything they could do, but it was too late. When we left the emergency hospital, I glanced at my phone and saw there was a message from Animal Medical Center saying the emergency hospital they had directed us to was out of oxygen. So even if we'd made it there, they wouldn't have been able to give her the treatment the Animal Medical Center doctor said we needed. It's been almost a year since this happened, and I thought long and hard about whether to post this review. I waited to have a clearer head because this loss has been extremely traumatic, and I feel horrible about the amount of time my dog suffered. I would not recommend relying on a practice that would operate in this manner. Perhaps it would have been different if Dr. Drew had been working that day. I don't know. I would not recommend using this practice.

Right now they have 48 horses available for adoption, with 4 more on the way, and a waitlist a mile long.

As a 501c3 nonprofit organization, part of their mission is to find the perfect home and purpose for every horse - whether as therapeutic companions, trail horses, or pasture ponies. On the tour - led by Susan Powers - we learned how KyEAC operates, met all the horses and heard their stories, and were treated to a short demonstration in the arena. I was floored. The staff and volunteers at KyEAC are doing amazing work advocating and caring for our most noble and precious symbols of the Bluegrass State. This tour felt much more impactful and important than the standard, showboat, multimillion dollar farms with active racehorses or breeding operations (which are fun, too, I've seen several!), and I would encourage anyone to book a tour (link below) with Horse Country and experience this wonderful place for themselves! https://visithorsecountry.com/book-your-tour/#id=kentucky-equine-humane-center-nicholasville
