Our dog Maxx got hit by a car 2 weeks after my back surgery and I saw it happen. My neighbors helped me load Maxx into my mom's truck and we rushed him to the E.R at 8:30 at night and this Pet E.R. saved my dog's life. I wanted to thank them so much, without them I wouldn't have Maxx today. They do and hopefully will continue to do great things for a long time to come. Again, I thank the Pet E.R. I recommend them highly!!!!
