Mikha had just turned 17 two weeks prior. He went into renal failure quickly and I was helpless. We decided that transitioning Mikha at home was the most loving , peaceful thing to do for him.

As much as it hurt to let go, and the pain is still raw, they were compassionate caring and treated Mikha with care and Love.

During our initial contact while I was sobbing on the phone, they were extraordinarily patient in obtaining our information and setting up the appointment. Our assigned vet, Dr. Nellie, was amazingly gentle and took us step by step through the process. Being able to say good-bye to our beloved cat at home was so much easier on us than having to transport her in her cage to the vet's where she would be in a cold room and we would have to go back to an empty house. We were able to sit in her favorite chair and hold her while she looked out the window. While we waited for the medication to send her off, Dr. Nellie clip tufts of fur and took an impression of her pawprint for us to keep. When our sweet baby was gone, Dr. Nellie brought in a wicker basket covered in blankets and helped us transfer our sweet girl amid the blankets before taking her to be cremated. I can't say enough about this wonderful place. I know they also provide pet hospice services for animals who are terminally ill, but not at the end of life. I highly recommend them.

On one of life's standout hard days, having recently made one of life's hardest decisions. We are very thankful for the Lap of Love professionals--from the intake clerk who set up our appointment to the veterinarian who came to our home to put an end to our ailing girl's suffering. As far as Martha was concerned, a new friend came over to play. She was the center of attention, as was her preference, in middle of her domain, the only home she has ever known. Surrounded by her family, she went peacefully---which is first most positive thing I can say about this gut-wrenching experience.

Pre-pandemic I learned all about Holly Starr and what she is capable of doing with canines. In the…read morebeginning I had had some major surgery and Holly came to the house and walked to the dogs everyday. A lady in the neighborhood had explained to me how Holly's in our neighborhood walking dogs for folks and so I was exceptionally pleased that my dogs formed such a tight tight relationship with Holly and I was just blown away with her and her family and how I was treated and how they loved my dogs. It wasn't long after that when I learned that Holly was capable of working with my dogs to help me understand some situations that I thought we were experiencing. The energy sessions that Holly did honestly really use their chakras and really helped both dogs at the time improve their overall energy and I believe calm some pain related anxiety. In September of 22 I had to put down a 15-year-old female husky Shepherd. She was suffering with fluid on the brain and Alzheimer's and throughout her last couple of months it was extremely important for me to have Holly work with her so I knew that Heidi was ready to cross and what Heidi wanted me to do with Pete and what Heidi expected of me as she transitioned. Absolutely without a doubt everything that Holly was able to express as she worked with Heidi came true and was so accurate. When Heidi was ready to finally cross when she was experiencing her body just totally giving out Heidi made it so clear that she was ready. So that is how I knew specifically that it was the right time that particular day to have Heidi transition. Heidi was clear on what she wanted for her brother that she was leaving behind. Pete, was a 15-16 year old male Papillon Corgi and about 3 months after Heidi died Pete needed to go on some end of Life Care because of a mass with his trachea and that caused some congestive heart failure. When Pete died July 1 in bed in my arms Pete died exactly like Pete wanted to and pretty much exactly like Pete had told Holly that is what he and Heidi both wanted they wanted to make sure that I was okay and that we did everything as a family and we did. 2 weeks after Pete died there was no way that I would have found a 12-year-old purebred Siberian that needed to be rehomed without Pete and Heidi doing everything to make that a reality. So Jake being a 12-year-old purebred Siberian was rehomed and didn't know how to be a dog but it didn't take him long to start learning what it was like to be a dog and believe it or not some of his distinct characteristics and personality traits were 110% exactly like Heidi and Pete exhibited. 6 months after rehoming and bringing Jake into my home then a rescued Great Pyrenees mix was what Jake chose to make his sister.. I believe that I learned so much that was so accurate and so spot on through having Holly work with my canines, they are my fur babies, and I know that at least I believe that I am parenting them in a way that they appreciate and they can communicate what they need and how they're expressing themselves is accurate and true. I am forever grateful for the relationship that I have for the relationship that I have formed with Holly and her family but for me more importantly is the fact that I trust and believe and Holly's ability to work directly with my dogs in ways that I don't believe would occur otherwise.

Oliver came with a long list of issues both physical and emotional. He was afraid of everything and a challenge to train.

She has been influential in helping me make healthcare choices, she has calmed him with her treatments, she administers his meds, knows when he's in pain and needs to cut a walk short and has helped in countless other ways. More than anything I know Holly loves Oliver as much as i do. She clearly loves all those in her care and I am forever grateful she came into our lives.

We decided upon Animals R Special. Why? Let me tell you: We found this practice to be exactly what that particular puppy needed. Full service, exceptionally trained vets, who are also empathetic vets, exceptional support staff, and also a practice that is willing to titer vs push vaccines/unneeded procedures. We bring in Wanda. She was treated so well and the communication between vet and client so nice; when I got home I told my husband, "we are switching all of them to this practice" they are extraordinary. And that is exactly what I did today. Today we brought in our 12.5 yr old dog Mo. they knew he had anxiety so they prepped in advance for him. The entire exam was on the floor, with lots of love, cuddles, good boys, and peanut butter treats. He was like a completely different dog. Showed near zero anxiety. Thats the kind of vet I want. One that goes that extra step. They confirmed he was in fact super healthy, his teeth fine. The previous practice kept saying he had cancer and at one appt suggested amputating his leg due to cancer (which btw, he doesnt have, it was a lipoma. Aka fatty growth) and wanted teeth extracted (which I thought was odd as he had no problem eating kibble.). So glad we didnt listen to the former practice as Animals r Special confirmed he is completely healthy and needs none of that. Loki comes in next week. So: if you want an honest vet, that goes the extra mile for your animal and really knows what they are doing.... You have found the right practice. 100%. We have seen both vets at this practice and recommend both the doctors. You cant go wrong with any of the ppl here. Seriously, Animals R Special is the winning place to go to because at this practice the vets/staff here are more than special, they are extraordinary. And that is what we all want for our furry friends.... The best!
