If you can, take your pet to another place. My son went there with his dog and it turned into a nightmare. The clinic is clearly open for the money and not for the love of animals. Any place that has staff that is cruel enough to tell you, you could take care of your dog with a shotgun should not even be open. \r

By the way, my son was extremely distraught at the thought of losing his friend and companion. When he told me of the shotgun remark, I thought he must have been mistaken, or misunderstood. As I was hanging up with him I got a text from his sister who was on the phone when the lady had said that to him, she also heard the remark and was livid.\r

My son ended up at Garland Animal Hospital. The staff there was wonderful and are doing everything they can for his dog. Take your pets to place where they not only care and have a heart, but they know what they are doing.\r

One of the things that really bothers me is this: If someone can be that cold to a person, how will they treat an animal when no one is looking?\r
