It's very rare you enjoy visiting the vets and we always feel good walking into the building. Robin rehabbed one of our dogs after she had extensive leg surgery and gave her such wonderful care. Our dog was terrified to go to her previous vet and has relaxed a ton in Robins care. When we brought our puppy in for her second set of shots I couldn't believe how much she immediately loved Joan. Both Robin and Joan have exceeded our expectations as vets and we are so happy to have found their clinic. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for competent and compassionate care. Danielle at the front desk is also very accommodating and attentive.

My cat of 17 yrs. (16 yrs and 4 months) had been declining and over the past few months quite…read morerapidly. She had stopped using her litter box and going all over the house ( not like her at all ), she was confused and would become lost in our own home. She cried at night, almost every night and would stop when I called out to her and heard my voice. She cried during the day as well. She stopped wanting to go outside and completely stopped grooming. Sadly I knew her quality of life wasn't of quality at all. It was with great sadness and deliberation I booked an appointment to have her put down. It was heart wrenching and a difficult call to make. I also knew taking her in for a "check up" wasn't going to make everything better, due to her age and large changes in her behavior. At that time of booking I explained the purpose of my call. At no time did anyone at reception say what I could expect at the appointment or the costs associated with the procedure. It ended up being the most traumatic and devastating experience I've had as pet owner. I never want another person to go though what we experienced. Firstly, I came in hours before the apt to pick up a carrier as I didn't want to leave with an empty one and knew I would be grieving. At the actual apt the doctor came in and asked why I was there?? Wide eyed and with tears I said to have my cat put down. She then ask why? I went on to explain all the reasons I felt it was the right thing to do. She asked if I would be willing to do a blood panel, to see if medications or at home care would be considered. I knew in my heart my girl was tired and suffering, by this time was crying so hard my friend had to speak for me to reiterate my wishes. The room was tense and stressful. The doctor then sent in another person to talk about my pets remains and what I wanted to do with them?? Decisions that should have been discussed prior. I have never put an animal down before. I was shaking and crying asking what the costs were so I could make an informed decision ( while distraught ) She said, "Oh you want to know the costs??". Another person ( a 3rd ) came it to talk about costs. She then looked at my cat and said, " She still looks bright" ... Looking at my cat for a few seconds. She then said, "We just want to make sure this is what you want." Want I want? Of course it's not what I want..... My decision is what I feel is best for my animal that I know and love. The apt. was just horrific, these people are not trained in how to provide options without disrespecting or shaming the pet owner. My cat was stressed, I was hysterical. The whole event was so traumatic, I have not slept in 3 days and continue to relive the entire chain of events in my mind. Please never take your beloved animal to this clinic. Its certainly not the same lovely privately owned clinic it use to be.

Yet they never called like they said to see if he was ok. I had to get treatment elsewhere, to help my dog! Very disappointed that they did not care that im on a disability and can't afford much. Then they argue the advertisement they have online. The least they could of done was to call like they said they would to see if my dog was better, since I paid a ridiculous price! Pets are important to people's lives. Especially those suffering from trauma! Sad that these kind of buissness's only care about the money!

They graciously accepted us as a walk in with our suffering kitty. Emma the receptionist and assistant were welcoming and empathetic. They got him in right away and they got straight to the point. I don't feel like they were trying to sell us on vaccinations or just grab money like lots of clinics do. They were very positive and reassuring to us as we were obviously in distress worrying about our cat. The bill was much less than I expected. We just moved over from the mainland but I will definitely sign both our kitties up to be cared for at this office. As shitty as vet visits are, this was by far the best!

We utilized Wishbone Pet Boarding for a daily day care, five days a week for six months while we were working in the area.

We recently boarded two dogs at Wishbone. When booking the Kennel, I told Henry not to put the…read moredogs together and that they were not to interact as they did not get along with each other. When we dropped off the dogs, my wife spoke for 30 minutes about keeping the dogs apart. On the second day, we had a phone call from the kennel stating that the larger dog had attacked the smaller dog and it had to go to the vet for a minor puncture wound but everything was ok. Unfortunately, when we picked up the dogs, the smaller dog had three puncture wounds and a 3" cut on its neck. We learned that the owner of the kennel had been walking the dogs together and that the larger dog turned and attacked the smaller dog. Instead of trying to separate the dogs, he hit the larger dog until it let go. As a result of this incident, we were forced to euthanize our larger dog. I feel that our decision to euthanize our larger dog was hastened due to the kennel's neglect in following our clear instructions.

This is a rescue, rehabilitate and release centre - with their main goal to return the birds and any other creatures they rescue to the wild. There are some that they do not release due to the extent of their injuries. We booked the tour online the day before (this was October so I think we got lucky) and got to see the animals up close with a guide. You can visit the centre anytime during business hours but I highly recommend booking a tour if you can do you can get more behind the scenes time. The tours run Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays I believe. The tours are free but they suggest $5 min donation per person. The tour was about 1 hr 15 min but we spent another 1/2 hr in the centre, lots of great information and interactive displays for kids. The volunteers are knowledgeable and kind. A great stop; awesome people doing awesome things for wildlife.
