Let me start by saying this is one of the most caring vet centers I have ever been to.
We have a 15 pound jack russell that we had given a ham bone to as we have done many times before.
However this time she had eaten way to much of the bone and it did not digest properly causing
her bowels to back up. Throughout a 2 day period we had called many vets that were listed in the
Indianapolis area to try and get advice on what we could do for a remedy. We were told that they
not only couldn't tell us over the phone what to do but could tell us that it would cost us anywhere
from 300.00 to 1000.00 dollars to have her looked at and or fixed we even had 1 vet that had told us
we might as well let her die if we didn't have the money. After a whole lot of phone calls I reached
the Shelby street animal clinic and from the 1st phone conversation they were very caring on what
we could do and had asked what we had done to help resolve the problem. After going through several
things we had set a appointment up on Thurs to either try and help our beloved puppy or maybe even
put her to sleep due to the fact that times are hard and we didn't have a whole lot of money to work
with but we could not see watching her suffer. We ended up on Wed. coming up with some money and
called the clinic back and asked if they could do anything for the amount of money that we had to
work with on that day. After conversing with Dr.Magnusson they made the time around 12 pm to see us.
We took her in to the clinic at that time and they did wonders with our puppy the entire staff
were very pleasant and caring and really seemed to understand and the compassion was overflowing.
After working on her they had us leave her with them for about 2 hours. When we came back to pick her
up you could see the relief in the puppy's eyes. After 2 days our puppy is back to normal and as mean
as ever. The clinic has also stayed in contact with us by calling daily to check on her and see how she
is doing. This clinic saved our dogs life if it had not been by a chance calling We would had never known
about this clinic. I would recommend this clinic to whoever reads this I have not been touched by
as caring of people at this clinic in a long time they really care about not only pets but they also
understand what pets mean to people as well.
Sincerely
The family of puppy sissy
