Out of nowhere he just collapsed and was breathing heavily. His primary was closed so I took him to Blue Pearl. Honestly when I think of going to a pet ER all I can think of is how much is this going to cost ?? are they going to do unnecessary tests , tests, X-rays etc... I was so hesitant to go to the Emergency vet, but I'm so glad I did. They got us in immediately and started trying to figure out what was wrong. The staff made me very comfortable and a little less stressed about what was going on. They sat down and went over what they felt was going on and the best part was I did not feel like they had me in the room trying to up sale me on a bunch of tests and procedures. I was really impressed because I truly went there expecting the worse in regard to the cost. The doctor said this is what you can do and gave a few options. I was so relieved. If we ever need emergency service I definitely will bring my dog back to Blue Pearl.

-- Our experience with BluePearl: Please read before choosing an internist…read more I don't often write reviews, but I feel a responsibility to share what happened with my dog, Dresden, in hopes of helping other pet parents avoid the confusion, cost, and heartbreak we went through. We brought Dresden to BluePearl because we were concerned he might have Cushing's disease. We were prepared for diagnostics, answers, and a clear treatment plan. Instead, after 2 visits, thousands of dollars, and a long list of tests, we left with less clarity than when we started. Despite our concerns about Cushing's, Dresden was never actually tested for it. Dr. Ford told us she didn't think he had Cushing's--and even if he did, she likely wouldn't treat it. That was extremely confusing for us as owners trying to identify the cause of his symptoms and advocate for our dog's health. Over time, Dresden's symptoms worsened. Eventually, he ended up in the emergency hospital after what was likely a vascular event triggered by untreated Cushing's. Heartbroken and desperate for answers, we took him to Salt River--where he was finally tested, and officially diagnosed with Cushing's disease. I understand that medicine isn't always straightforward, and no internist can predict everything--but what we needed was someone who listened, took our concerns seriously, and followed through with appropriate diagnostics. We didn't get that from Dr Sara Ford at BluePearl. In fact, we were poorly treated, misinformed and made to feel we were bothering her for following up for direction when his condition worsened. If you are seeking an internist who will be thorough, proactive, and aligned with you in getting to the root of your pet's issues, I urge you to look elsewhere. You deserve a team that takes your concerns seriously and doesn't leave you with more questions than answers. We wish we had gone to Salt River from the start. It could have saved Dresden pain and us thousands of dollars months of stress, fear, and unnecessary expense.

Before I discovered all American K-9 I was 100% disappointed and discouraged with all of the…read moreprevious training and gadgets that I had tried. I could not figure out why nothing was working. A colleagusuggested that I try a dog trainer named Bob Solomini that he had used in the past. His passion and confidence in Bob convinced me and even though I was very skeptical and worn out I decided to give it one last try. I am excited to tell you about my invaluable experience and what I learned from it: -my dog was only a small part of the problem, but the majority of the behavioral problems stemmed from me. Dogs aren't born knowing how to behave the way humans would like them to, so we as responsible dog owners need to teach them. -we don't automatically realize what we are doing wrong and unless a true professional who really cares can teach us the correct way we can't be sure that we will ultimately have a happy relationship with our pet. -after four years of pulling my hair out and stressful walks with my dog I wound up moving to a new neighborhood, and my dog was totally out of control when I walked him. When he saw people with dogs, he went crazy and I could not stop him from barking and pulling. In fact, he pulled me down a couple of times where I sprained my ankle and another time where I hurt my knee. In fact, most of my neighbors walked the other way when they saw us and complained about my dog's bad behavior. After the first lesson, I immediately knew that I had found something different. Humane, focused,, professional, and results driven. I am so lucky that I found all American K-9 and especially Bob Solomini. I love walking my dog now, and all of my neighbors have praised the incredible transformation that they see. This was literally a life-changing experience for my dog and for me. I am so thankful that I found somebody that really knows what they're doing and really cares -not only is Bob a great person, but also the Best dog trainer that I have ever met. I highly recommend this trainer and business to anyone who is serious about having a great dog!

Before training, Maggie was almost impossible to walk, constant leash pulling, barking, and reactivity that made it embarrassing to take her anywhere. Since our very first lesson, she has completely transformed. She's calmer, more responsive, and so much easier to handle. Now I can take her with me to Lowe's or PetSmart and she walks right next to me, relaxed and focused. I even get compliments from people about how calm she is. Bob explains everything clearly and gives you tools that actually work. If you're looking for a trainer who truly knows what he's doing, this is the place.

It's not quite what it was hyped up to be when I called. It's supposed to be lifetime and it was very expensive and unfortunately did nothing for my dogs. I met with Michelle 3 times all less than 1 hour and spent well over $2,000. Quite disappointed and wish I would have seen more honest reviews prior. She does push for positive reviews at her first visit. Like someone else mentioned she teaches you to bark and growl at your dogs to get them to listen and follow commands. I think it maybe works during her first visit because they are so confused at first but quickly looses effectiveness.

The training took place at her facility in Dewey, AZ, where Scout stayed for the duration and was treated like family. Angelika even let Scout sleep in their bedroom (don't believe this is part of the normal program but goes to show how dedicated Angelika is to making the training personal). They were incredibly flexible with start and pick-up dates, which we greatly appreciated during a busy time for us. From the start, it was clear that Angelika is knowledgeable, patient, and truly passionate about helping dogs and their owners. The training sessions were tailored specifically to Scout's personality and needs, and the progress has been amazing. Using positive reinforcement techniques, Angelika not only addressed the issues quickly but also helped Scout build confidence. She kept us updated with regular communication, including progress videos. Now, Scout walks calmly on a leash, no longer jumps on guests, and responds much better to commands. During the pick-up session, Angelika and her husband, Tino, took the time to thoroughly explain the "why" behind each technique, ensuring we felt confident continuing the training at home. Angelika also made herself available for follow-up questions and provided helpful resources to reinforce everything we learned. If you're looking for a dog trainer who is professional, effective, and genuinely loves working with dogs, Angelika is the one to call. On top of her expertise, she's a joy to work with--we shared plenty of laughs during our conversations about Scout's progress!
