    I have been a customer since 2006 and Caring Hands Animal Hospital in Bristow, VA is my vet. They…read morehave always taken incredible care of our animals in good and bad times. Highly recommend and unless there is an after hours emergency, they are the only vet we trust. Every doctor is patient and very knowledgeable, compassionate with each pets passing over the years. Dr. Dean and Dr. Murphy have taken excellent care of our pets for years.

    I never thought I would be writing this. I grew up wanting to be a veterinarian and once deeply…read moreadmired Dr. Murphy. I even shadowed her as child. Unfortunately, my experience surrounding the euthanasia of my dog Paisley completely shattered that respect. Paisley was my best friend. I picked her out, named her, and loved her for her entire life. I found a tumor on her over a year ago and repeatedly told my family, offered to schedule vet visits, cover all costs, and handle transportation. Those offers were refused. I was not informed when the decision was finally made to euthanize her. I had to find out from someone else. I was promised the opportunity to be involved, to ask questions, and to be present for the discussion and goodbye. Instead, I was forced to watch over FaceTime while Dr. Murphy and my mother repeatedly left the room to discuss matters without me. When I tried to ask if they could wait so I could be included, I was talked over and told they would proceed anyway. The rest of my family was given notice and allowed to be present. I was intentionally excluded from my own dog's final moments. Regardless of circumstances, the lack of empathy, communication, and basic compassion shown to someone grieving the loss of a deeply bonded animal was devastating. This experience caused immense emotional harm, and I would never recommend this practice to friends or loved ones. Paisley deserved better. So did I. Edit: I also find it concerning that this practice appears to ask clients to edit older reviews, which has the effect of burying negative feedback. That feels inappropriate and raises serious concerns about transparency.

    It has been a couple of months since my 1yo Samoyed, Olly, came back from the 10-day in-home…read moretraining that Mike and Jerri offer. At first, I was very nervous about letting someone have Olly for this long. He would take off after everything and was very hard to control. But, they made sure to send pictures of Olly on his daily excursions. I would see him sitting at various stores and I was delighted to see he was doing so well. When we went to pick him up, I couldn't believe how much he had improved. His basic obedience was on point, like never before. He was also more polite in unexpected ways. He's a very vocal dog, and we noticed that while he spoke just as much, he was literally softer in volume, as if he now understood that he can be too loud. He stopped going into bathrooms and creating messes. Best of all, I was able to take him out into the world on a leash and prong collar, and we both enjoy it. I will admit, I am bad at keeping up with the training - which is why I decided to do this program in the first place. OIly is definitely not problem free, but he's way more of a delight to own and, if I do better with the training tips Mike and Jerri offered, then I'm sure I can get him back into shape in a week or so. But, truthfully, just the fact that I can now take him anywhere I want with me and have a pleasant experience made it worth the price and the 10 days of separation.
