Not only was the staff incredible, they truly love what they do. Opal has a mild case of CH and I currently have a little with a severe case. And I have a soft spot for giving these beautiful souls a happy home. From the phone call to even just arriving to the parking lot for directions I was definitely delighted to see friendly faces from the staff. The volunteers were so incredible, they were nothing but transparent and loving to all the littles in the venue I felt bad that I wanted to adopt when they have such great people. I think whoever is looking for a new addition should really consider adopting here. Every little is treated so incredibly well.

EBARR removed him from the Antioch animal shelter and placed him in a loving foster home giving him an opportunity for the good life that all animals deserve. As a wildlife rehabber, I understand how heartbreaking it can be to continually see the abuse and neglect inflicted on animals by humans. It can be difficult not to become jaded, but the success stories are what keeps people doing this work going. Mine is a story of success and yours can be too! Please consider adopting from or donating to EBARR. EBARR SAVES LIVES!!

Our 3.5-year-old Frenchie jumped off our bed and ruptured a disc. Griffin couldn't walk or stand…read moreup on his own. His legs were becoming more stiff as the hours went on. The local vet in Napa said we needed a neurologist and sent us for emergency care at SAGE in Redwood City. They told us that he was becoming paralyzed and that we needed to get him an MRI ($3000) and an aggressive back surgery that was only an 80% chance he recovers from this. That would cost us approx $18,000 dollars. Not to mention the aftercare costs. If we couldn't do that, then we should euthanize him humanely there that day. We cried it out and begged for an alternative so they sent us home with a gloomy diagnosis that the steroids will probably not help and to have him put down if he become fully paralyzed and struggled with his breathing. We were trying to figure out what else could be done and our family friend messaged us with Linda from Bay area Animal rescue crews information. Linda from BAY AREA ANIMAL RESCUE CREW called us and immediately suggested we take Griffin to Concord, Alpine Vet Hospital. That night we showed up to the Clinic at 6pm (they have great hours for working families too! )Linda Greeted us and took us in to meet Dr Freeman who in detail explained this Hib Laser that could help Griffin to walk again for hundreds of dollars not thousands!!!! He also did a few tests in front of us to test Griffin's reflexes. And he quickly was able to explain Parysis vs Paralysed. Griffin had a shot. And the Vet scheduled 7 visits for this HIb laser in a matter of 2 weeks. After the first treatment, it was clear we had some results. Griffin who was not lifting his head on his own, left the clinic with his head up! Linda called us that night for after care and to make sure we were doing everything in our power to give him the best chance. She double-checked our meds. She advised on what food we should be feeding him. (he wasn't eating at the time) her suggestions and help did not go in vain. I truly believe she is a godsend for our Griffin and for us. We kept him on the Steriods and he's been on some anti-inflammatories and pain meds for the last 27 days. I am happy to report Griffin is 90% better! He still doesn't take the stairs or do any jumping (we will be limiting that for a long time ) But he is walking with the occasional stumble. I feel like Linda and the Rescue crew and Dr Virk and Dr Freeman and the rest of the staff at Alpine are a Group of people who deserve this praise. And a BIG HUGE THANK YOU! OUR family is healed and this help means more to us than I can put in this review! They were kind to us and helped us as if it was their dog suffering! I will be singing your praise for years to come. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts !

The same name as Brenda from 90210. Brenda was one of the loudest cats when placed in a carrier. She absolutely hates it and I knew I needed to get her out of theif as soon as we heard hear, so my daughter and I adopted her. K911 workers were patient with us and allowing my daughter to hold different cats, and share info on them. They are also dedicated to what they do and I was even able to reach out to Jeanie after we had adopted Brenda to ask her some questions. Also, we were able to take her to the K911 clinic to have her seen for cough as soon as we adopted her. I'd highly recommend K911 since they are REALLY good to the cats who come through.

When we walked up, there was only a screen door at the entrance, which made it appear open to the public, so my niece naturally assumed it was okay to walk in and lightly tried to open it. I immediately told her not to, and at the same time the employee also said "no." We then stood there patiently for a couple of minutes while the woman continued moving around without acknowledging us or explaining anything. I finally asked if they were open, and she abruptly yelled, "No, I'm cleaning." The issue was never that she was busy. We would have completely understood if she had simply communicated that respectfully from the beginning. Instead, the interaction felt cold, dismissive, and unnecessarily rude, especially toward people who came in genuinely interested in adopting. What was also concerning was the smell. Even while standing outside at the screen door, the odor of cat feces and urine was extremely strong and immediately noticeable. It smelled as though the area had not been properly cleaned in quite some time. Overall, we left feeling very unwelcome and disappointed. I hope future visitors and potential adopters are treated with more kindness, professionalism, and care.

This was our first time attending this event. We absolutely loved that they had each family go in one at a time into the private space so that the animals could feel safe and less distracted.

Andrea, Santa, and the other amazing worker (sorry I didn't remember your name) not only set up such an amazing backdrop, but also did such an incredible job helping the animals to focus and do their best.

What used to feel like a place focused on helping animals now feels rushed, impersonal, and centered around pushing medication rather than providing thoughtful, compassionate solutions. Throughout my experience, there seemed to be very little effort to discuss alternative options or genuinely address the root of my dog's issues. Instead, the only solutions presented involved continuously prescribing more medication without much explanation or care for long-term wellbeing. What was even more frustrating was being charged a "service fee" that staff could not clearly explain when asked. If clients are expected to pay additional fees, there should at minimum be transparency and professionalism regarding what those charges are actually for. I understand veterinary medicine is difficult and clinics are busy, but compassion, communication, and honesty should still be basic standards of care. Unfortunately, this experience left me feeling unheard, overcharged, and far less confident in the clinic than I once was. Stay away from this place.
