We took two 4 mo old feral barn kittens for Neuter and noted to them that we noticed one had eye…read moredischarge so we asked that they evaluate the eye while he was under anesthesia. They said they looked and flushed the eye when we picked up but didnt find anything. We kept watching since the eye was off and on squinty and had drainage... finally at two weeks I took him to our local vet, just to be sure it was really ok before turning him loose again... and they found a foxtail!! He had an ulcer on his cornea now as well. I called to let the staff know this development, as they directed me to release the kitten (where he would have slowly lost the eye, very painfully!!!) Well the Executive Director took time to call me back... so I described the situation but to my surprise she was immediately defensive and condescending, referring over and over that 'didn't charge' for their supposed eye exam and treatment... and never once even remotely sounded like she was concerned that the kitten endured this pain and infection nor grateful that I had done the right thing for him, and she ended our shocking call by stating 'I am making a note on your account that you are not satisfied with our services... AND WON'T BE BACK!' Beyond unprofessional!!! DO NOT trust your animals here! They literally defended their recommendation to turn a kitten loose with a foxtail in his eye! This was not buried, they got it out with no problems this morning at the REAL vet! How a business runs, their culture, and their ethical standards trickle down from the top! Clearly the head honcho at APL doesn't give a darn about animal welfare and sure isn't afraid of telling off a customer!

I was nervous to get it done but realized it was necessary for her future health. I used to bring my Cats here for care but they have since passed on. I decided to bring my Katie here for her spay surgery. This was her first visit here. I arrived around 8:30am to drop off Katie on her surgery day. The gal at the front desk on Aug 28th greeted me with kindness and that relieved me. The Vet tech who came out to the lobby was also friendly and greeted my dog with a compliment and lots of welcome strokes across her head and upper body. I could tell she loved dogs and Katie was not nervous to go in back with her to start the procedure. Last time I was here, Dr. McCullough worked here. She has since passed so they advised me that Dr. Lynn Muller (from ACT Spay & Neuter, Stockton) was helping them out for surgeries. I did not get a chance to meet her, however, I hear good things about ACT so I went by that. I picked up Katie around 4:30pm that same day. She came out to the lobby to greet me like nothing had happened. She looked good. Not drugged out or nervously excited to get the heck out of there! What a relief! My fur baby was fine! Hallelujah! Ashley even helped me get Katie into the back of my SUV. They gave me a pain med pill to take home with me and advised that she take it easy (no jumping). The price was great also! Less than $300! Katie is doing great. The small incision healed well on her belly after a week. No oozing or irritation. They use surgical glue so you don't have to return to remove sutures. She can't wait to start her long dog walks soon. Based on my experience, I recommend Cherokee Vet and Dr. Muller for spaying your fur baby. Thank you Dr. Muller and staff!

Ted is a big, strong, and young adult dog. We needed to find the right coach. Thankfully, we found Julia Priest- our canine & human coach! In less than three months, Julia has coached us to help Ted learn basic commands, "stay in place" in the house and outside, and develop skills to become our hobby farm canine companion! In addition, as part of the coaching experience, Julia provides safe and secure weekly doggy socials at her country property with fellow K9 coaching participants. We highly recommend Julia Priest with Coach for Canines - she is a masterful, patient and caring doggy and human coach!

I arrived early for my dog's appointment to find that the neighborhood was rougher than expected…read more There was road construction in front of the business blocking what appeared to be the one and only spot for street parking. As I headed down the side street of auto shops and junkyards mixed in with rundown late 20th century homes I began to brood. I found a spot to park and waited a few minutes until it was closer to my appointment time. Just as I exited my car, I saw a huge, loose German Shepherd walking near the back of my car. I stood and watched as he sauntered westward down Worth Street causing the myriad of dogs along the way, chained in yards and in cages and running loose in yards, to explode in barking, growling, jumping aggression towards him. Think of the Fresh Fish scene in Shawshank redemption. The shepherd was completely unphased. I waited for him to reach California before taking my 15lb dog out of the car. We walked very quickly down the middle of the street to our own chorus of maniacal barking and rushed inside the California Cat and Dog Hospital. When the door closed behind me, I attempted a deep breath of relief but the smell of ammonia, and other unknown and unpleasant odors, began immediately burning my nostrils. My disillusionment was growing rapidly as I walked up to the front counter and gave my name an appointment time. I looked to my left and saw a bulletin board with a photo of Dr. Kim that had a quote from him saying "Every pet that comes into the clinic is my pet!" and I immediately started to feel better. After a few minutes, his son Dr. John brought us back and I explained why we were there and what we needed. I noticed immediately that he was very kind and attentive. He actually physically examined my dog and listened to her chest and back with his stethoscope. He walked us through our options and was instead of presenting us with an estimate listing every fee, he advised us the approximate cost and was willing to be flexible with blood tests and some exams that weren't absolutely necessary at the moment because he understands they can be costly. We decided to to everything he advised regardless of cost and he was able to take our pup in and take care of her. When she started to come out of anesthesia, the staff called us and we were able to get there right away to pick her up. We were very surprised at the affordable cost, even with all the of things that were done. We also asked for pain medication for her and were given a little to take home at no extra cost. We could not have been happier with the care we received at California Dog & Cat Hospital! This place is so great that it was suggested we keep it to ourselves, but there can be no gatekeeping, especially with care like this so I had to write this review. I realize it is lengthy and possibly overly descriptive, but I think it was important because if you are willing to endure the location and the smells, you will be rewarded with gentle, affordable care for your fur babies. P.S. I logged in to write this on Feb 12 and they have updated/notified yelp that they will be closed (Lunar New Year). Most businesses can't even be bothered to put in their correct regular hours on the site so it's just another reminder of the thoughtfulness of the doctors here. I am so happy we found this place.

She updated me every day with how our dogs were doing and she sent pictures of them too! I absolutely loved getting the updates and pictures!
