Took all three of my dogs to get rabies shot and it was reasonably priced and got us in and out quick which was convient for us since our dogs were a little edgy (since it was a new place). Definetly recommend.

I got a call an hour later that she had died.

thought it might have just been an honest mistake. Until this week.

My dog got into the trash and got sick, and was placed in this vets care. They didnt seem to be too concerned about her, just told me they'd get her what she needed and to come back monday to get her (i left her on a saturday) i came back monday, was told she couldnt go home yet, and she looked much worse, but was sitting in a back room by herself not being looked after.

I will never return. I will never forgive them.

All I can say is if you have a sick pet please go elsewhere. This clinic may be fine for boarding and annual shots, but not for sick pets. I feel if I would have taken her my normal vet he might have saved her life. I thought I was doing the right thing by getting her to someone quicker, but it didn't turn out that way.

I wish I would have read these reviews prior to taking my dog to this clinic as I would have gone elsewhere. I had given my dog Aleve for 3-4 days (one tablet each morning) to aid her with some hip pain she had. I didn't know this was bad for dogs until she didn't seem to want to eat and had thrown up a few times. I was enroute to my normal vet in Oakland, but he wasn't going to be in until the afternoon so my wife called this clinic, which was close to where we were at, and they could see her right away. I wanted to get her looked at ASAP so we chose to go to here. The vet gave me the bleak and the best outlook, but didn't really know where to go from there. They didn't have a blood machine so a blood test would take a day to get the results back. I asked since it was going to take a day that maybe the best thing to do would be to leave her overnight and I would run the blood test over to Omaha the following morning to speed things up. He said that would be fine and would get her stabilized and start her on some antibiotics and then see how see was doing the following morning. My wife and I didn't get the feeling from him that she was too bad and just needed a bit of time to hopefully recover. The next morning my wife called before I was going to leave for the clinic to tell them I was on my way and to do the blood test. The vet then told her that my dog had passed away. This was just a huge shocker for us as we didn't get the indication from him that she was in that bad of shape. We picked her up yesterday and he didn't even come out to offer condolences or to say what went wrong.

I dont believe this vet did what was necassary to save my dogs life.

They messed up my cats declawing. It was hobbling around for a week before they had to do another surgery on it (which they charged me for)

DR SHULTZ AND CHERYL, MALLORY 1 AND MALORY 2 ARE THE VERY BEST !!!! WE HAVE USED THEM FOR YEARS FOR EVERYTHING FROM SERIOUS ISSUES TO MONTHLY DOG BATHS WE WOULD NOT EVER CONSIDER TAKING OUR PETS ANY WHERE ELSE, AND WE ARE VERY PARTICULAR PET PARENTS !!!
