    Few days ago final sun bath
    Hilary H.

    Yesterday I brought my 6 year old bearded dragon into this clinic and left without him. The staff that helped my sweet bearded dragon Nugget (Dr.H, Aiden and another sweet staff member I didn't catch her name ) treated him and me with kindness, sincerity and respect. They let me comfort him during the process and gave me as much time as I needed to say my final goodbye. In the future if I ever need an emergency vet I will be back. Thank you for your help and compassion during this difficult time.

    INCREDIBLE PEOPLE!!! Literally saved my pup after an accidental raisin poisoning. Very reasonably priced. Staff helped me set up zero interest credit. Great follow-up care!!! I can't even begin to express how thankful we are for this Vet ER

    Really appreciate the heated countertops

    I had to visit Tanasbourne Emergency Pet Clinic last night-something no pet owner ever wants to experience. From start to finish, everyone was incredibly kind, professional, and accommodating. I called ahead to make sure they could see us, and upon arrival, we were welcomed warmly and got into a room quickly. I really appreciated their check-in process-completely digital, with no papers to fill out by hand, all done conveniently on my phone. We were in and out in just under two hours on a Thursday night, which felt like a huge relief. I'm especially grateful to the doctor who performed a quick ultrasound on my kitty to ensure there were no obstructions. They also followed up the next day to check on her, which really meant a lot. Highly recommend Tanasbourne Emergency Pet Clinic for anyone needing compassionate and efficient care for their pets. We did end up visiting the emergency room here three days in a row. They were kind enough to schedule a weekend ultrasound for my kitty so that we can diagnose why she's been sick.

    I came here to have my 16 year old cat put to sleep. Everyone was very caring and compassionate from the front desk ladies to the vet and assistants. I could barely get a word out from my crying and we were taken to a nice peaceful room right away. They put my kitty in a nice soft little round bed with a blanket and gave us lots of time to say goodbye. After she passed they took her back and wrapped her up in a white cloth and drew a heart on the wrapping so we could take her home and lay her to rest in our garden. Thank you for helping my old girl pass in peace.

    Tanasborne Veterinary Emergency saved both of my cats. In August, my sweet Orange cat named Jinx had a bladder blockage. We took him to Tanasborne and they performed a PU surgery. The surgery saved Jinx's life and he is currently cuddled on my lap while I'm writing this. He is my whole heart and I'm so grateful to Tanasborne vet for saving him. Not only did he receive phenomenal care, but they let me call to check on him as many times as I wanted, constantly gave me updates, and the surgery was also way cheaper than other places we looked into. The surgeons, vet techs, and admin staff were all SO kind and compassionate. 2 months after Jinx, our grey cat Izzy had a stomach issue. She was throwing up constantly and we were so scared for her. Tanasborne helped us come up with a solution for her and got her on the right medications to help support her until we could get her to our primary vet. Both cats are so happy now, they opened their catnip toys yesterday for Christmas and I am just so so grateful to still have them. They're truly my babies and I cannot thank Tanasborne enough for taking such good a care of them. If you have a pet emergency, I cannot recommend Tanasborne Veterinary Emergency enough. They will care for your pet with the same amount of love that you have for them.

    I could not be happier with a horrible situation for my fur baby. He was diagnosed at another vet with a growth in his front ankle, cancer. One of the recommendations was tanasbourne. We were given 1-3 months without intervention from both, with Tanasbourne offering a small possibility considering the location of the growth...mainly just letting us know we had the possibility of 2-4 months. My dog just turned 6. Named Eleven - born on 11/11 - wedding date, birthdays ....soul mate to my wife and I Full front limb amputation was suggested and preformed. He was sore and would wine for a couple of weeks, but the pain program they have, seemed to be perfectly on par considering the traumatic surgery that just happened. Almost 6 months later, his surgery has healed perfectly with no signs of cancer. Biopsies during surgery's showed no spread to nodes or other areas. This is what we are told is "a rare" occurrence considering the diagnosis (which was confirmed via biopsy) 80lb fur baby is now jumping in and out of our Jeep, going to the dog park, and more importantly...being here by our side My sincere appreciation to the staff, they made a nightmare bearable. Our most sincere appreciation to our surgeon who chose to be honest/forthcoming of possibilities in addition to staying late into the midnight hours to preform the procedure. Thank you team!

    Both of our pups were treated here, two years apart. You held our hand through end of life with them both.

    From the bottom of our hearts we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to the entire staff at Tanasbourne Vet Emergency. From the moment we walked in the door we were treated with the utmost respect & care. Your facilities' time management & ability to triage patients is second to none. Thank you for taking care of our Ruger & guiding us through one of the hardest decisions we've ever had to make. Your clinic also helped us care for, and say goodbye to, Ruger's sister two years prior. The work you all do is invaluable.

    Ask the Community - Tanasbourne Veterinary Emergency

    Do they allow you to wait with your pet in a waiting room? I read online they were requiring people to wait in their car? I don't drive it is after hours I will take an uber there but need to know if I will be able to wait indoors?

    Hi, James, it is always best to call in advance because they have been at capacity frequently this month from our experience. Some people have to stay in their cars because the waiting room gets full ( social distancing) or they have another pet… 

    Is this facility allowing owners inside with pets?

    Only when putting animal down

    Can they spay/neuter rabbits here ? If so what is the cost?

    No, they offer only emergency services. A typical daytime exotic veterinarian would be most appropriate for this.

    Does this vet work with pet owners on the cost of treatment, will they work with you on paying according to your income, what I can afford?

    I don't believe they do a sliding scale or payment plans, but they do offer Care Credit.

    How well does this vet know English bulldogs?

    The owner of the clinic owns an English Bulldog himself, as do many of the employees. They also treat bulldogs of all types routinely, so I would be totally confident in their expertise with the breed (and their many complexities). :)

    Has anyone spayed their dog with this clinic? What is the approximate price?

    They offer only emergency services, so a routine spay would typically be best done at a regular daytime vet.

    I recently had to bring my 9‑year‑old Rottweiler to this veterinary ER after he suddenly stopped…read moreeating and began coughing. The team here correctly diagnosed him with right‑sided heart failure, even though the underlying cause wasn't immediately clear. Unfortunately, we had to return the next day as his condition rapidly declined, and he ultimately passed. I want to be very clear: his passing was not due to any lack of effort or care from this team. What stood out most was their open‑concept treatment area, which allows pet owners to stay right beside their animals during critical moments. Being able to stand next to my dog, see what was happening, and feel included in the process meant more than I can express. I can only imagine how stressful it must be for the staff to work with owners watching every move, yet they remained compassionate, calm, and focused the entire time. If I had to be picky, some of their equipment--like the ultrasound probe--was a bit small for a large‑breed dog, which made imaging more difficult. But even with that limitation, they still managed to accurately diagnose what was going on and worked with impressive speed to try to save his life. Despite the heartbreaking outcome, I left feeling grateful. They cared about my dog, and they cared about us. I would highly recommend this ER to anyone facing an emergency with their pet.

    While our outcomes weren't what we'd hoped, I have to say for Vet emergencies - we will come here…read morefrom now on. Too many times we have gone to a Vet emergency clinic, our dog taken away, and we sit in a room wondering what's going on and panicking about where our dog is, is she scared, not getting updates, not understanding anything. Our dogs are always terrified to go in, they HATE being taken away from us, and we hate it. That is NOT the case here. When they say open concept - they mean OPEN. You are seated in an area, WITH your pet. The doctor and nurses come to where you're sitting, they sit on the floor with you. You're sitting next to other patients and their people, sitting on other couches near you. You're seeing them x-ray, do labs, triage, etc. on every single pet that comes in the door. You see all the chaos going on in a Vet ER as they do their passdowns and triage. It all becomes visible, and we left there understanding two things: 1) veterinarian emergency is chaos. There's always something. There's always pets in need. And there's always people wondering what's going on and just as scared as their pets. 2) Being able to SEE that first hand, helped us understand, empathize, but also bond with other pets and their owners - as we all sat together, talked while we waited, and created a sense of community in during that time when stress is at it's highest, with our furry family members.

I'm…read moreposting this to inform others in the community, especially pet owners, about what we experienced during an incredibly difficult time. This is not meant to discredit the clinic as a whole, but to be transparent about an interaction that had a significant emotional impact on us and may be important for others to be aware of. Our family recently brought our cat to Columbia River Veterinary Specialists during one of the most painful moments a pet owner can experience--having to say goodbye. I want to be very clear that the majority of the staff we interacted with were kind, patient, and compassionate. The woman at the front desk treated us with warmth and respect, the staff member we spoke with on the phone beforehand was helpful and understanding, and the veterinarian who ultimately assisted with end-of-life care was gentle, loving, and respectful. He took the time to explain everything clearly and treated both our pet and our family with dignity. Those are exactly the kinds of people you want working in a field that involves end-of-life care and emotional vulnerability. Unfortunately, our initial interaction with one staff member significantly overshadowed the experience. When our family first arrived, the individual who took our cat back (not the person who checked us in) made comments that strongly implied judgment about why our pet had not been brought in sooner. These remarks were delivered in a way that felt accusatory and lacked empathy, especially given that our pet was actively dying and we were already emotionally overwhelmed. Financial limitations are a reality for many families. Being made to feel guilt or shame for not having immediate access to thousands of dollars--at the exact moment we were facing the loss of a beloved pet--was deeply inappropriate and unprofessional. Veterinary professionals are entrusted with not only animal care, but human compassion. This was not the time for assumptions, judgment, or commentary--it was a moment that required empathy, discretion, and support. I'm sharing this because no family should be made to feel judged or shamed while saying goodbye to a pet. I sincerely hope this feedback is taken seriously and addressed internally, because the rest of the staff we encountered demonstrated the level of care and compassion that should be standard in situations like this. Our pet deserved peace and dignity in their final moments--and so did our family.

When we decided it was time, we called in the morning and were able to get a same day appointment, but it was only available after hours for an extra $125. Dr. Kathy was wonderful. She was compassionate, patient, calm and collected. She did not rush us and explained everything in a way that made it just a little bit less stressful. Our dog was 120 pounds so the 3 of us carried her out in a stretcher afterwards and she was wrapped in a blanket which was a more sensitive way to carry her outside vs looking at her body. The reason for 3 stars was the compassion ended at the remains pickup. We received the email that she was ready and it did not say to make an appointment, just gave us walk in hours. We arrived to pick up Kaya's ashes and checked in with Megan the woman at the front desk. She said we needed to hurry up because another family was coming in. She shoved the paperwork at us to sign and hurried us along. After a long drive, my husband asked to use the restroom and was told "no" because another family was coming in. After spending over $1,000 it was a cold and harsh end to what was otherwise a good experience. My husband asked for her name and pointed out to Megan that she was not being compassionate especially with what we were going through and that this would be added to our review for the facility. Only then did her tone change and she reluctantly said "ok, you can use the bathroom" but by then we were upset and just wanted to get out of there like the initial intent was from the receptionist from the beginning.

Fortunately the lack of reviews on this app didn't stop me from contacting them after learning the difference between standard cremation and Aquamation. Not only is this a less violent process it's a much better process for the environment without ANY drawbacks that I could identify. Joey the owner was truly empathetic to my situation as I spoke to him from the parking lot of Dove Lewis Pet hospital moments after I picked up my baby girl. He offered to pick Dini up from my house (and would have come to Dove Lewis if I had asked him to!) Without any additional charge! The "least expensive" cremation option given to me by Dove Lewis charges an outrageous fee of $200+ to pick up your pet! And they do traditional fire cremation. Joey met me at my house and took great care placing Dini in his van, assuring me that she would be treated with the dignity she and I deserved. Only 5 days later he let me know she was ready to come home. On Christmas Eve he delivered her ashes to me. The total cost for her individual (vs. group) Aquamation including pickup and delivery was $219! Much less than any other option I found and done with the greatest compassion and professionalism. I can't recommend them more highly! It was the bright spot in an otherwise terribly painful experience.
