    I went into Vetco for a simple checkup and to get a second opinion on anxiety medications prescribed by my dog's regular vet. Before my dog went into the room, I had told the vet and the ladies up at the front desk that he has really bad anxiety and will bite if you touch his paws and butt, which is common for corgis or any short legged dogs in general. By the time the appointment was over, Dr. Parcel came out and spoke to me in front of three other guests saying loudly that my dog was extremely aggressive and they had to wrestle him. In addition to that, she blamed me stating it was my fault for my dog being scared of the vet. At the end, I took him home, and noticed that one of his eyes was all red and swollen. I immediately called my friend, who is a vet, and she told me it was subconjunctival hemorrhage, which is caused by strangulation (choking) or traumatic injury. My dog did not have this before we went. I ended up calling with Vetco again to tell them and instead of helping me, Dr. Parcel blamed it on me stating that it was my fault that the dog was aggressive and that she would no longer be seeing Jupiter. Keep in mind that I had already informed them about his anxiety and that I came there for a second opinion about the medications. They pushed my dog over the limit that, according to HER and HER words, he started screaming like crazy, peed all over himself, and that they had to wrestle him. In which case, as most professionals, they should have stopped and not forced him over his limits. I was literally waiting in the lobby (due to COVID, we are not allowed in the rooms), which is no excuse not to come out and talk to me about it. Dr. Parcel told me she would not pay for a different vet to treat his injury because "You can not prove that it was us that caused it and I will not pay the bill." She blamed it on my car, which makes no sense. My dog has been going to his normal vet for 3 1/2 years and never ever have we experienced such aggressive behavior or unprofessionalism from a vet. We went here because we joined the VitalCare Petco program, safe to say, we will end our plan with it. As a vet, Dr. Parcel should know how to handle anxious dogs, much like how a dentist should know how to handle kids who are scared of the dentist. The dentist is not going to pin down the patient and wrestle/choke the child until they pop a blood vessel in their eye; therefore, she, a vet, should not do that to a dog. If you plan on going here, please RECONSIDER. Be prepared for Dr. Parcel to treat you as if you do not know anything, talk to you in condescending tones/attitudes/ and gaslight you, and if your dog is scared or anxious, the vet will be aggressive with them and not comfort them.

    Waited at the register for 10 minutes and not a single worker in sight. Finally found a stylist that could page a cashier. Terrible service.

    How would you like being denied water for 7 hours on a 95° summer day that feels like 104°? My boy…read moreHunter found out today at Pawsi. Here's the whole story. When we got there for his appointment at 8AM, they had no record of his appointment and had to go ask the owner, Kylie, what happened. I had rescheduled from Monday due to a conflict, but spoke with Kylie directly over the phone that same morning. They had all week to document that I was coming on Friday instead. Once we got that cleared up, Kylie assured me how much she and her staff care for their clients and how they strive to be the best groomer in Fort Smith. When they finally called me at 3:02PM to tell me Hunter was ready, I drove over from the Braum's on Zero Street. I arrived at 3:18 to find a tired looking but very clean and well groomed boy. I'll say that much. They are capable groomers, and do a nice job on their clients. My dog looks great. But I found out how Hunter's stay went 10 minutes later when we stopped at Ed Walker's Drive-In for an after-grooming hamburger (I know, I spoil my dog ). Imagine my surprise when Hunter gulped down two entire 32oz cups of water in record time, and would've gone for a third if I hadn't stopped him for fear he'd make himself throw up. No dog does that unless they've really been neglected. So thankful to the waitress there who saw him quaffing down water from through the window and brought out two more cups for him. But back to Pawsi. While they're competent groomers, and nice enough people, they're very scattered and disorganized. I'm sure anybody who loves dogs even a little has the good sense to know they need water. Likely this was a case of everybody thinking somebody else brought the dogs water and nobody did. But because of this experience, I wouldn't take Hunter back here, and can't recommend them either. They may be the best Fort Smith has to offer, but that's setting the bar really low.
