Review of Dierenkliniek Emmeloord

I had to put my dog to sleep at this practice yest...

I had to put my dog to sleep at this practice yesterday.
I don't normally write reviews, but I write these in hopes that someone else will be spared this experience in the future.

My experience:
My almost 10 year old darling (King Charles Cavalier) was suffering from epilepsy. This eventually became fatal to her.
The day before yesterday (Saturday) my dog had a seizure that lasted way too long; medicines were collected from this practice and given at home. We kept her with us for another night but the next morning she was unable to walk and remained in an attack. I decided to LOVE her to sleep.

I had a severe heart attack (5 stents) two years ago and nearly suffered physically and mentally. My "Snoopy" has helped me tremendously during this difficult period, partly because of her I recovered.

For us, Snoopy is more than a dog, a family member, a sister ... someone you love intensely.

If you have to, do it with feeling!
I do not know why this vet has acted this way and as a customer / patient I have no use for that at the time. I am certainly not waiting for an excuse or explanation. I am very angry!!

This doctor was only concerned with preparing the syringes and nothing else!
No guidance in any form. Just come in, prepare the syringe, administer and then draw up the invoice. When I asked in tears if my dog would get 1 or 2 syringes, I was told in a derogatory tone only the number "2" and then continued with his technical actions.

This doctor may be happy that at the time I was very sad and had to say goodbye to my dog, but otherwise I would have scolded him full.

After the first syringe (sleeping aid) I went outside with my dog to sit on a bench, so that she could fall asleep in my arms in a nice way and then get the fatal syringe back inside. I am glad I did it that way, it was worth dying for her. I don't think I should have had that moment with her when the doctor was there.

Maybe there are other doctors working in this clinic who can compensate for this "jerk" (my own opinion) with their love of animals, otherwise I would not recommend this clinic when it comes to situations like this.
In any case I will never be there again !!!!!
