A friend recommended Creekside Pet Hospital after I was not able to get an appointment with my regular vet in a timely manner. I didn't feel that it was an emergency but wanted my dog evaluated as soon as possible. Unfortunately xrays showed that my beloved search and rescue dog was seriously ill. Scout was a very special part of my family and the bond I had with him cannot be described. He was twelve years old and had been searching just a few weeks prior. Shortly after his last search I noticed he didn't want to load up into the vehicle and had lost his appetite. Dr. Guhman was so supportive. He was easy to talk to and very gently explained that my dog had a huge mass on his liver and several other masses near the kidneys and near his back. Rather than have Scout suffer further I opted to euthanize him. It was a difficult day to say the least. Dr. Guhman and his staff made me feel as comfortable as possible and I never felt that I needed another opinoin. Thank you Creekside for the wonderful support.
