I felt that my dog Roxie has always received care from Idaho Humane Society in Boise that has been…read morea excellent experience. The vets Roxie has seen there were caring, gentle, compassionate, concerned and genuinely interested in my dogs health. Educated, experienced and qualified to provide exceptional care for my animal. They have given financial assistance to me for my dog in the past more than one time. I've been ever so grateful for! Idaho Humane Society staff is courteous, they communicate between staff great. Professional opinions on one occasion that the mass removed from my dog ( a different dog) was not cancerous and recommended it wasn't necessary to send of for further research to find out if the mass was cancerous. She was accurate! Sadly this particular vet that provided care for the mass left the Idaho Humane Society. I believe she relocated. All my experiences with IHS have been good except one time about 13 years ago. My dog at that time was very sick, the vet treated me like I was abusing my dog. My dog was terminal, I didn't realize how sick my dog was. I got him from a rescue and I believe when I got him he was already very ill. Which I later discovered after the exam at IHS. The vet recommended to euthinize. I was in shock. The vet refused to let me leave with my dog and said the dog had to go into the hospital or be immediately euthinized. I couldn't afford the hospital care and the dog was obviously at the end of it's life. I wanted to spend until the next morning with my dog before I had him put down. The vet treated me terrible and basically tried to keep us hostage at The IHS. When the vet left the exam room for a few minutes, I immediately left out a side door with my dog and went home. Later animal control showed up at my door wanting to view my dog and take possession of my animal because of that vet! I had beat them to the punch and already contacted Kuna Pet Care Clinic for an appointment to have the dog euthinized the next morning. Once I informed animal control officer that no she wasn't going to take the dog and that I had made arrangements, the officer verified it with Kuna Vet Pet Care Clinic. And then IHS vet and animal control officer couldn't take action any further. Kuna Vet Care Clinic was extremely compassionate and helpful with the services to end the dogs life. It was a horrible experience with IHS. But this was many years ago and I'm sure that vet is no longer with IHS. Also I believe a vet like that one was a very rare vet in terms of vets aren't typically lacking compassion, treating animal owners like they are animal abusers. Vets usually aren't demanding and controlling either. I think it was a isolated experience. I don't believe IHS would ever have another vet similar to that one. I definitely highly recommend IHS. More than I would other vets and vet hospitals such as West Vet. They have horrible reviews.

I explained my concerns about Meowgi's persistent cough and Doctor Patricia Pence was very thorough in her examination of him. The care and treatment that Meowgi received from Doctor Pence was nothing less than excellent. After the appointment, Doctor Pence contacted me twice to check on him and to give me an update on the results of his bloodwork and X-Rays that were completed. She suggested that we put Meowgi on a diet as he is a hefty boy and she explained to me that the medication that she was prescribing would very possibly cause him to gain extra weight, which may cause diabetes. Dr. Pence listened to me and I know that she took every word that I said to her seriously. I genuinely feel that she does care deeply about the animals that she treats. She also made me feel valued because she was not arrogant or pretentious in any way. If you are looking for a caring veterinarian that will do all that she can possibly do to take loving care of your animal, please make an appointment to go see her. Thank you Dr. Pence for your excellent care and for your love of our animals.
