    Great staff and very friendly people. They've earned my trust will our other cat. My first visit…read morewas a long visit, but later learned it was due to a very ill dog that needed the attention. They have their priorities in order.

    Our family had one of the worst experiences imaginable at this veterinary office…read more We brought our 2-year-old cat in because he was having pain while urinating. He was diagnosed with FLUTD and prescribed a pain/anti-inflammatory medication. We were told this was a lifelong condition that would require prescription food and carried a risk of recurring urinary problems. Five days later, he wasn't improving, so we brought him back. At that visit, he was prescribed an additional pain/anti-anxiety medication and a topical treatment. Up to that point, everyone had been kind and helpful. Four days later, he suffered a complete urinary blockage. We were told he would need to be unblocked at York Veterinary Hospital and then transferred to an emergency hospital for 3-4 days of hospitalization, with the total cost being several thousand dollars. Unfortunately, this was simply not something our family could afford. Before making our decision, we called local rescues and the animal shelter to see if we could surrender him so he could receive treatment, but no one was willing to take him because of his condition. After exhausting every option we could think of, we made the heartbreaking decision to have him euthanized. Instead of compassion during one of the hardest moments our family has ever faced, the veterinarian became visibly upset with our decision. Despite my husband repeatedly explaining that we could not afford the recommended treatment, she began crying, accused him of being rude, and stormed out of the room. This all happened in front of our 15-year-old son, making an already devastating situation even more traumatic. Another veterinarian then came in to help us. She explained that even if we had proceeded with the blockage treatment, there was still a possibility our cat might not survive because of the trauma his body had already endured. With the exception of one staff member, who was not a vet, our family was made to feel judged and guilty during an incredibly painful experience. No family should be treated that way while making such a heartbreaking decision. To make matters worse, we were charged over $500 for the euthanasia. Due to the way we were treated we will never bring another pet to this office.

    We adopted an 18 month old great Dane with no boundaries, distracted by everything. Richard…read moreeducated my husband and I, helping us first. After a few weeks with Richard, our great Dane came back with boundaries and understanding commands. Richard spent time again with us so that we had the tools to maintain what he learned. Richard establishes a relationship with the dogs. He's very straightforward and honest. And he offers continued assistance. We highly recommend.

    So, Richard just left from our first meeting. I think I'm more exhausted than the dogs are. All…read morethree babies did amazing and learned so much. First off, Richard is a passionate and talented man, it's easy to see from the moment you meet him; Richard does what he loves. Second, he speaks dog... like direct communication, but what's cool is before I knew it, I was communicating with my babies even better. He was teaching me to talk to the dogs the whole time and I had no clue. Third, he inspired me! It is not often you meet somebody with the courage to walk away from every comfort they know to pursue something they love. Richard listened to what I wanted to do, I wanted to strengthen the bond between myself and the dogs. I already see a difference, they do too. I've worked with several trainers in the past and never felt a comfortable, or confident connection and neither did my dogs. I don't know who's more excited about our next lesson, me or the dogs. I can tell you there's more to come. If you want to get to know your dogs better and really strengthen that bond, call Richard. I assure you; you won't have any regrets.
