Do not take your pets to Thompson Animal Medical Center at 4540 Mormon Coulee Road, La Crosse, WI!…read moreThey are negligent and incredibly unprofessional. I took my dog there in April when she became sick. When I brought her there, they told me that she was in such bad shape, that they couldn't send her home with me. They said they could either keep her overnight for observation or that I could take her to a more expensive veterinary clinic in Madison or the Twin Cities. They said they thought that her CT scans showed an intestinal obstruction. However, the next day, they called and said that she was better, that she didn't have an obstruction. They said they did a second CT scan in the morning and used AI to look at the images to determine if there was anything to be concerned about. I believe should have been done when the did the first set of CT scans, since it could have confirmed immediately that there wasn't an obstruction and that they needed to pay attention to her labs results (these will be mentioned farther down). They told me she just had an upset stomach and that she'd recover. She didn't. She died shortly after they sent her home. I've been requesting her lab results from that visit and I just got them, along with the note that they would not be communicating with me further. As if I was being unreasonable for asking for them. Her test results indicated that she never had an obstruction, but that she actually had a bacterial infection that was causing her liver to fail. Every test result of her liver enzymes indicated this and they ignored them, for some reason. Her bilirubin levels were extremely high, 3 times the normal range, and they did nothing about it! They also lied in the records that they finally gave me. They stated that she was in no visible distress when I brought her in, when she actually was in distress. So much distress, that the vet and vet tech commented on it, since they had met her before and knew she wasn't acting normal. They also stated that her mucous membranes were pink and moist when she was brought in and when she was released, which is another lie. Her white gums were one of the reasons I knew she was sick and brought her to the vet. And this was another thing the vet noticed and commented on. They are unscrupulous, negligent, unprofessional, and liars. They only care about money, they don't give a dam* about your pets or you. If your fur-baby gets sick, take them to VCA Sand Lake Animal Hospital.

I brought him home and immediately called to see what treatment he was given. Basically nothing!!! When I spoke to someone on Monday, she offered to "work with me if he had to go to the vet." What does that mean??? Then I asked if she had a handwashing protocol between pets. She assumed employees washed their hands! I asked her why a picture of my dog's eye was not sent to me, so I could decide his care if they are not willing to care for it. As far as I recently found out, our pets are left alone at night and no cameras are used. My dog will never go there again!

I took my dog over to meet the others in advance and to see if she would get along personality wise with the dogs and cats that would be there.

While on my trip I received photos of my dog via email and when I picked her up she was happy and non stressed at all - something I always had to deal with in the past when taking her to traditional kennels. I will bet that now looks forward to my trips as much as I do!

My dogs seem to enjoy doggie daycare and are definitely tired out afterwards. The facility is clean both in appearance and in actual smell. Employees are courteous and detailed in providing any required status of my dogs upon pick up. Definitely recommend !!

The email said they could and it wouldn't be a problem jusy bring down the attached application filled out Monday and we'll get her booked Go to drop off the application on Moday, January 30th at 11:00 am. Spoke to a really nice woman named Dawn who wasn't sure how to go about it, but told me they had room avaliable and would let Laurie know to give me a call later that day to confirm. I head back in around 3:45 because I hadn't heard from anyone. Met with another nice person who also said Laurie had just left but if I left my # she would make sure it would get to her first thing in the morning. I asked to please give me a call even if they couldn't board her so I'm not waiting around all day. I call them up the following day (tiday is January 31st )12:15 to see what's going on as I had yet to hear from them. My call went to the answering machine. I wish I could leave a good review as the staff I met with in person are really nice, but this is a horrible way to run a business. No sense in telling a customer you can provide a service and then ghost them. It really looks like a nice facility and I gave it two stars because Dawn was nice, but other than that, I've had the same experience as the other negative reviews
