After an emotional morning, and lots of tears with the vet and her tech, I took my baby's remains for cremation. They were very kind and told me that it may be a couple of days before I could come pick up her cremains, but 24 hours later I received an email to come pick her up. I chose to have her cremains kept in a beautiful blue bag rather than an urn. I chose not to get a paw print or hair clipping, though both were offered. She will be placed in my pet cemetery in my backyard. The professionalism and kindness of the employees by Fond Memories staff was so helpful in a difficult time.

My PurrBall crossed the rainbow bridge in October. I wanted…read moreto bear her in my kitty cemetery in the backyard, but the ground was too hard, so I had her cremated at Fond Memories. Many vets in town use their service, and it was going to cost an extra $65 for picking up her body and returning her cremains so I took her out myself. The staff there is extremely kind. I got to spend extra time with her in a mourning room. I was offered getting a lock of her hair and a paw print if I wanted, but I declined. I was told that I would probably be able to pick her up the following week I received a call about two days later. Her crews were presented to me in a beautiful satin blue bag. The ground was still too hard, so she is sitting on my altar, and though it has rained and the ground is soft enough to dig, the time is not right to say my total goodbye yet. I highly recommend Fond Memories.

I called Paws in Paradise, hoping I could have a vet come to my home, but unfortunately the vet was booked until the 9th. I took Bella to my vet and then brought her home. Paws in Paradise sent someone to my house to pick her up. He brought out a basket, in which I placed her, wrapped in her blanket. I was sobbing uncontrollably and he gave me a hug. He was very respectful. I ordered a special urn for her and picked her up on the 9th. Such a hard decision and emotional day, but they made it a tad easier.

When she arrived, my baby had a rush of energy and wanted to play outside in the grass. She assured me that it was okay to take our time and let her enjoy outside one last time. We sat and she listened to my stories about her life, and when she wanted to go inside, we went in and she was given the sedative. She was so peaceful and laid in her bed. Then, she passed while the doctor and I talked about her life and how wonderful she was. It was the hardest day of my life, but the easiest day of my sweet baby Gracie's. It was worth every penny. I have never seen such a peaceful ending. There are not words big enough to communicate my gratitude. The end of her life was so sacred, which is more than most of us people get. This has helped my grieving process immensely. I know for certain this was the best ending that could have been for my sweet angel. Thank you so much.

It states hand delivery or pickup from your location. Which means when you called to schedule a day I made sure to be home all day as to not miss the delivery. Also referring to someone's beloved pet by animal or package is disgusting. Use language like pet or my pets name. A person is grieving show some humanity for crying out loud. If you're not equipped to deliver, DONT OFFER IT! I would've rather picked him up from any location rather than gone with this. Also, call someone when you guys messed up immediately. Don't ignore the issue and then respond when they write a review. Then still not even have the humanity to call me in response to the review rather than that pathetic response, maybe I would've updated it to say something nice if you had. Its called damage control. My pet was cremated by Argos and scheduled to be delivered to our home on Monday. We waited all day anxiously awaiting to receive him and never received a followup. I called yesterday at 3pm and was told he was delivered. I was then texted a photo of the front door he was dropped off at. Not our house...I freaked out and my husband drove around the neighborhood until he found the house. THANKFULLY, the woman who lived there was trying desperately to reunite us via FB since there was no contact information for us or even an Argos logo anywhere except when you open the paw print box there is a certification he was cremated by Argos. I am absolutely horrified that my beloved pet was dropped off like a food delivery with such little care and no information to lead the recipient in the event that this incorrect delivery happened to get him home. Why is there no confirmation followup that he was delivered? Why don't they text or e-mail that door image promptly following delivery so he could have been reunited with us immediately?? Imagining that if someone wasn't kind enough and/or didn't realize what this delivery was had just thrown him away or left him on their porch to picked up by a package thief then discarded makes me absolutely sick. How dare you assume that I am okay with a porch dropoff?? I was told he would be HAND DELIVERED. Which means someone would give him to me with respect not left on our doorstep. To add insult, I was told yesterday around 3:30 I would receive a call from a manager and haven't heard from them. I completely question their ethics on how they care for our beloved pets and I am sickened by this whole ordeal.

This was the place that our vet uses so we didn't do much research before hand, especially given…read morethe terrible situation we were in. Overall, if you must use this business, I highly suggest you Do Not purchase any of the "upgraded" packages. You will be severely disappointed, just as we were. We ordered the "Wood Package" which was to include a , "clay" paw print as stated on their website, however the one we got was a cheap planter type foam and the entire casing was very scratched. Its the ugliest thing and I don't see how anyone would think its ok to send it out this way. The package also includes a ink paw print, but its so severely smeared that it looks like someone just did it in an extreme hurry. (My toddler could've done better) but, thankfully I have my own prints that I managed to get the week before our dogs passing. And as for the "wood" urn, well no shocker, its also the cheapest and equally scratched up material. I would equate the feel to a balsa wood. I have since ordered a new wood urn online and its quality is 5x better than the junk Argos gave us. And no, it didn't cost 5x the price. It was the same amount we paid to "upgrade" our private cremation package. So its clear, that this place is either very cheap or simply lazy and careless when it comes to what they are selling. I will never allow any other pet of mine to be cremated at this facility.

Went in to see Dr. Douglas who felt it was scar tissue from an injury. Sent us home with an anti inflammatory and antibiotics. 14 days after the meds were gone, we called and advised the mass had not shrunk. We came in and paid for a biopsy but the vet could not get one. We were told it was scar tissue from an unknown injury and nothing to worry about. $500 total with no biopsy. We since got a second opinion, and the dog has Cancer. When we followed up with Dr, Douglas, the receptionist said the surgeon who is there once a week was indeed concerned after relooking at the picture. There were lots of mixed signals and we could have lost our dog. We would not return to this Dr.
