DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE IF YOU SUSPECT GRASS SEED INHALATION. Have been going to them for…read moreyears, since they were in a smaller clinic. Things changed when they built a fancy new building of their own on the river, and now it seems to be mostly a monetary focus. My friend is furious that they "let her dog die" and I had my own bad experience when I brought my own dog in for evaluation on a suspected airway obstruction. Instead of looking at the airway obstruction, they ran over $400 in various blood tests-including pancreas for some damn reason! When it came time to address the airway obstruction, they said they don't have the specialized equipment- which is the whole reason I brought her in. We live in the Columbia River Gorge, and this is a semi-rural vet hospital, and they don't have the expensive equipment to diagnose a simple grass seed (which can be deadly). When I asked why they don't have the equipment I was told they just can't afford it, and nobody there is trained to operate it anyway. I told them I thought it would be a good idea to get this because grass seed problems are very very common around here. Apparently the nurse didn't like my audacity to suggest what I would like to see in a vet, and had the owner call me back and tell me off for 10 minutes, then tell me to come and pick up my sick dog - that they would not treat it. Wow. Just kicked a sick animal to the street. They were very careful to hold my pet back until I paid. Imagine, kicking someone out of your practice and expecting payment! But it showed me their priorities and that they do this OFTEN. I understand owners are upset when their pets become sick, and I wish they would also, and show a little compassion. Nope- out the door with you! Update: She was taken to another vet, who quickly noticed a swollen neck, so they put her under anesthesia and checked out her airways- what I wanted Columbia to do! They found no obstruction, but he as a type at inflammatory laryngitis cats get, and an experienced vet would know about. Treating with cortisol. I really feel like Columbia run all those vague tests to run up bills, and they started doing that when they moved into their new fancy building. It's so transparent. The young vets just starting out have no idea.

Even so, it was an incredibly difficult decision for me to make, and I was very torn up about the whole ordeal. I chose The Dalles Veterinary Hospital to help me, though, and I'm glad that I did. Not only did they let me pet him and tell him how much I loved him as he drew his final breaths, but they were genuinely caring and even sent me a sympathy card a few days later. I'll always appreciate that, as my cat meant the world to me. I've taken my dog there once, too, just for an exam, and they were equally nice at that time. I highly suggest The Dalles Veterinary Hospital if you're looking for a vet in the area.

On September 14th of this year we were camping at Cottonwood Canyon. We live near Portland & had…read morejust arrived at the campsite. My dog Walter was involved in a nasty little altercation with a friend's dog and he was slashed on the side of his ribcage by one of her nails. I could tell right away that while there was no blood, a stitch or two or three would be the optimal treatment. Unfortunately it was after hours and while it was an ugly wound, we didn't consider this an emergency enough to cause delays in life-or-limb saving treatment for other animals, so we waited until the following day. My husband took Walter to My Family's Pet Doctor. Conveniently for us, they had a cancellation that morning and were able to get him in right away. We're not doctors, and we are especially not veterinary doctors. But we stupidly assumed he would be getting a few stitches under local anesthesia. Welp, as it turns out, we were dumb, this wasn't how it was done. It was done using general anesthesia. Walter received 8 stitches along with a thorough cleaning & inspection of the wound. We were sent home with pain meds & antibiotics. I removed Walter's stitches 12 days later and the would looks beautiful. There were no complications & we had no concern about infection at any time. The entire process was just under $500. And while this is a lot of money I feel it was more than fair & was honestly expecting it to cost more. In general, veterinarians & veterinary staff are woefully underpaid for their level of education and the amount of emotional & mental stress they are subjected to on a daily basis. We don't have pet insurance but hopefully at some point it becomes mainstream so that the people that care for our animals can be compensated more appropriately without it feeling like a "racket" to pet parents. Anyways, we appreciate Dr. Katie Sowell and her team so much for getting our dumb pooch stitched back up. He's back to his handsome old self.

The I checked pricing for veterinary services from Hood River to The Dalles. The results were from around $400 to over $600 PER CAT; except My Family's Pet Doctor which was less expensive. I made an appointment for the female and caught her and also brought the less aggressive of the two males (company for her), took them to her appointment and after talking to the receptionist, asked if they could possibly fit him in too. Mainly because his procedure was simpler (and they are all such incredibly nice people), they fit him in! All of the staff are very caring and wonderful! Both kittens have tamed down remarkably and are now still together and doing well in a new home. I still have a barn cat (intact) . . . very friendly as long as it's on his own terms!

My daughter called her amazing vet Maryann, who, the day after Christmas, agreed to see her right away. She took x-rays and showed me that my dog's heart was so enlarged that it was pressing against her esophagus and her trachea. Maryann sent us to Pullman, where they gave us meds that added another year to her life. If we had caught the problem earlier, she might have lived another five years or more. Although I live in Ellensburg, I still take our new dog Mishka to Maryann. She is worth the drive.

She was deliberately physically and emotionally abusive to my dog. She left scratches down it's back from being dragged by the neck with a very thin leash slip-notted around his neckIt left a mark on the dog's swollen neck that didn't go away for 24 hours! A 40 lb large absolutely terrified puppy. The animal, always cooperative and friendly, had a severe limp for 5 weeks and was suddenly afraid of people after being subjected to her abuse. Britanny is nothing but an ignorant and insecure, mean nasty bully. A typical local loser who hides her true self behind a false bravado. She can only pretend to know what she is doing and how to manage people's pets because she obviously doesn't have any learned skill or natural talent. She should be hung by her neck and sprayed with ice cold water and left to freeze in the wind so she knows how it feels. And dragged around cruelly by her neck so she is scratched and bruised and limps for 5 or 6 weeks afterward, until her muscles and tendons recover. What a mistake Dr Randall made hiring her!. I observed her abusive treatment of customers and their pets. There is no level too low to which this disgusting, mean, useless excuse of a human being will stoop to satisfy her insane, petty need to dominate the scene. She makes the whole clinic and everyone who works there look equally vile.

We had to spend the day after our wedding at the emergency vet while she basically became a dog version of an asphalt paver. The emergency vet was encouraged she had passed enough to avoid surgery, but wanted a follow up x-ray done the next day. So we extended our stay a day and I woke up first thing on Monday to call multiple vets in the area at 8am and was denied over and over and over saying "oh our doctors don't typically like to take on cases that they don't know" HUH? Then I called Arrowleaf and Kylie answered with compassion, humor, and empathy to our situation. They were able to get us in same day and Dr. Morelos took the time to go over her previous "issues" (she's had a lot) and discuss some options to present to our vet back at home, while also assuring us that our dog's x-rays look good and we can travel back the next day. Thankfully our dog is fine and has since passed the remaining rocks, but I am so grateful for places like this to help when you aren't home and things can feel a bit stressful! So thank you!

One call to Kylie at 11AM, and they immediately made space in their schedule to examine him. Dr. Johnson's thoroughness and compassion stood out yet again. She took her time examining Dapper, working diligently to pinpoint the source of his discomfort and develop the right treatment plan. But what truly sets this clinic apart is how the entire staff treats their four-legged patients. They don't just care for Dapper - they genuinely adore him, greeting him like an old friend every time we visit. To Dr. Johnson and her exceptional team: thank you for being there when we needed you, and for treating my furry companion with such warmth and expertise. You've shown once again why you're more than just a vet clinic - you're partners in keeping our pets healthy and happy.
