My pug says he's very happy with their attention to him! He had started to have problems with walking as far as usual. We already knew he had back and hip issues so we started with that. I took him to another place that had a water treadmill but he couldn't go for more than 5 minutes so we started to think something else was going on. We were referred to a wonderful neurologist here. It only took a few minutes for her to know it wasn't his back or hips causing his problems. She gave us a possible diagnosis but needed blood work to confirm. Unfortunately, it came back positive for the disease she had thought, which it like MS in people and only affects pugs. I was able to take that info to our regular vet and he's managing the disease now. If we hadn't gone here, I doubt we'd have a diagnosis and wouldn't have been able to care for him like we need to, to slow the disease. I'm very impressed by the whole team that helped my pug baby!
