After taking our Havanese dog to the same veternarian for the past 5 years, we had to take him in on a week-end for emergency care. He had been having some seizures for a while and sleeping a lot more than normal. Our regular vet said that this happens with old dogs. She took a blood sample and we were told that nothing was abnormal. Our dog was unable to walk so we went to VEG. We were taken to the treatment area immediately when we arrived even though there were others waiting. These vets and techs, unlike our regular vet who had been treating our dog, realized he was terribly sick. In his xray, we were shown a huge tumor for a dog his size. He was dying. We brought him back the next day to be put to sleep. Never in our years of owning dogs were we cared for in such a professional, sincere, and caring manner from start to finish. We and our dog were respected and valued as if we had been coming there for years. We are blessed to be able to have VEG and their staff in our lives during such a heartbreaking time.
