They asked for me to bring her in for a follow up. I contacted them and asked if there was something wrong, because she was refusing to eat or drink. Considering I was never contacted and informed of this. And he was sent home with three days of medicine. However, I believe they did it to try and cover up whatever malpractice occurred. After we researched the medicine used, it stated clearly to not administer to an animal of her weight, they told us they chose to use it because of her weight. We were told that they did a three day time release injection. When she was handed to us, we never received pain meds, as we did with our male. Afterward, it was evident that something had gone wrong. Before going in for surgery, she was in excellent health. Immediately after getting her back, we could tell something was wrong. I chose to use altered tails after my male was neutered earlier last year. I brought my female chihuahua in to be spayed. I’ve wrestled with this since October of 2020. Shame, because they came highly recommended from family and friends. She just wasn't dosed in the morning because she was going under anesthesia.īe cautious with this clinic if your pet is a little hefty, they will probably call your pet fat too and decline your pet, for any pets 50+ lbs. They also tried to tell me my pet was too anxious, and wanted to prescribe a pre-sedative before I schedule the appointment again in 3 to 4 weeks (assuming my pet would have lost the weight) but also never asked if she was on medication for it, which she is on medication for. Two completely different numbers? Was she 4 or 13? What's the point of asking weight, if you are going to decline the pet at first sight? And don't put pricing online per weight if that doesn't matter! Upon pick up they handed me a 'Weight Loss Calculator' on how much she should eat and asked if I needed help to understand why. I asked how much over and the girl told me, sorry she was 13 lbs over. When I finally got someone, she told me again about me pet being overweight. When I had to chance to call back with more information, I had to call 8 times to even get the receptionist. Within 30 minutes of being at work, called me and declined my pet for the spay surgery because she was 4 lbs overweight. Day of the appointment, got her checked in and they took her back.

At that time, proceeded to book the appointment with everything ok. When scheduling the ask the usual questions of breed, age and weight(63 lbs). I scheduled this appointment 2 months ago, to get my 2 yr lab/pitbull/husky/German shepherd mix spayed.
