Pet Lovers? more like Pet Killers. What started off as a simple surgery for a mass on my dog's leg turned out to be a 2 month nightmare. To start, the wait time here is the least of your worries. The first surgery went well, his leg was healing, everything seemed like it was trending the right way, the first vet recommended that a biopsy wouldn't be needed because he felt it wasn't cancerous, but things started to change the day his stitches needed to be taken out. My dog was returned to me as if the stitches had been pulled with no care, his wound looked completely reopened, and they gave him back to me like that. The moment i got home my dog started throwing up multiple times, to the point i had to return, they had to restitch the wound, back to square one. I would take him almost daily to "clean his wound" but nothing seemed to get better. His mass started to reform as time went on. Every vet told me something different, one went as far as to say he might have cancer in his lungs, so i paid $500 just to be told he didnt. When i asked the other vet if she saw anything in his lungs she said no he is healthy. They dont communicate between each other, and are ready to charge you after these 2 minute consultations. This is when i started to become skeptical of this place i had trusted for so many years. The reviews about it being only about the money, and your pet is just a number is the truth. 2 months in the mass is back, but now there are a few more. My fear and stress only grew, i was told during my last visit there they had to amputate my dogs leg, we asked if we can just get a sample of the mass to send for a biopsy before we make a decision like that. I should've walked away that day but they made me feel as if my dog wouldn't make it if i didn't make a decision on the spot. Not only did they reopen the original wound they cut more, when i saw my dog after that second surgery i knew this was the last time id ever step here. He looked mutilated, like if someone who didnt know how to do surgeries cut open my dog, he was bleeding non stop that night, puddles of blood, they had stitched a gauze to his skin to "hold it up". I took him one last time to change his bandages and clean him because it was not normal the way he looked and the amount of blood that spewed. I ended up going to another vet, where they told me my dog was having kidney failure, and that his leg looked so bad they have no choice but to amputate it, a day more and he would've died. Pet Killers abused my dog, they deemed him "aggressive" and would sedate him any chance they got, they even medicated him without my consent, they prescribed him so much medicine to patch up the mess they made, my dog was suffering. Now i realize why he was so scared every time i walked in there. When they would "clean" his wound they would just apply some liquid and wipe him down and let him go. At the other vet, i saw what a real cleaning was, they showed my dog real love and real care. They did more for him in 2 weeks than Pet Killers in 2 months. He had gone through too much, his body couldnt take it anymore and he passed away December 14 2023... i couldnt be with him in his last day after 12 years because he was on 24 hour watch in the new vet after they had to amputate the mess PL made, Pet Killers took that moment away from me. I regret ever going back there, please do yourself and your pet a favor and go anywhere else. Dont let them charge you these prices, make you feel like just another number, all they do is drug your dog and butcher them.
