Losing a beloved pet is difficult enough, which made my recent experience with my dog's end-of-life…read morecremation even more disappointing. I paid hundreds of dollars, only to have my dog's ashes returned in a plain plastic black box with no engraved nameplate, paw print, or any sense of compassion or care throughout the process. I recently had another dog cremated through Amberwood, and the difference was remarkable. Their pricing was more reasonable, the presentation was thoughtful and respectful, and the staff communicated with genuine empathy during a very difficult time. When a veterinary hospital shows so little care for a family member's final arrangements and the handling of their remains, it raises serious concerns about the level of compassion within the overall practice. This experience was extremely unfortunate and deeply disappointing.

I recently tried making an arrangement to pick up my cat's prescription medication only to be told on the phone by a woman that they're not going to allow me to pick up medication unless I make an appointment to get X-rays and injections for my cat-you know, extra expenses that are costly that I can't afford right now nor that my cat really needs since they've been bouncing back extremely well on the medication alone. The prices are also very steep here. $100 just for walking in the door for the appointment. It's literally a $400 expense everytime you make an appointment here because they get insistent on tacking on expenses. The visitations become less about real animal welfare and more about squeezing every last dollar out of you.

Maltese like all dogs raised and trained well are so affectionate. I received a package of everything I needed to start of with. Most importantly, after my military discount, the free package of necessities, and the same day appointment, I had the breeder come out to show me how to keep my little boy as bright white and clean as when I received him. Each of the dogs I saw were bright white, well groomed, I reviewed the AKC, CKC purebred pedigree registrations, all vaccination and vet records were in order, I even asked about the cray to prove each Maltese had four to five puppies a litter. OMG, my breeder had everything available. Most of all, she when to college for and works in the veterina field. I was impressed. Also, I confirmed the champion sired dog and the champion bloodline.
