Having Toby in our family for 13.5 years has truly been a blessing. She taught us so much about love and life. So many wonderful memories help to bring peace to our hearts - where she will live on forever.

Thank-you Dr. Haas and all of the Vets and staff at VCS for your tremendous skill and good counsel. We know that Toby's last few years were enhanced because of you.

Best Regards -
Nancy and Jeff Boggio

Thank you so much for all of your help with our dog, Sassie. We were so worried about her when we were out of town. You kept in contact with us the whole time until we were able to get home and come see her. The staff at the clinic are all wonderful.

We really appreciate all of the care you gave her. We know she is getting older, but she is part of our family.

We will refer your clinic to others. Thanks again for everything.

Everyone at Vet Care Specialists - I just wanted to thank you for everything you did for Mr. Babs. Your kindness and helpfullness is gratefully appreciated. Thanks again.

You were there for us at all times - it made it easier at the end to know that she was in such good hands. Thank you for being the "Care Specialists" that you are - it helped at the end to know that she was getting the best care we had to offer her - you!

You will always share a place in our hearts with Teddie.

Client Letters and Testimonials

I just wanted to thank everyone who took care of Gracie during her surgery and afterwards. She did very well after the surgery even though the progress was poor. She was happy and playing at home until May 19th and on the 20th she was obviously in pain and Dr. Zubke euthanized her. She was a very special companion to me and I miss her very much. Bless all of you for what you do for God’s littlest creatures. I know I can count on you if I need your services in the future.

To all the caring doctors and staff at Veterinary Care Specialists;

I wanted to let you know that Dusty passed away peacefully Monday, June 12th. He had been suffering from kidney failure for a while. After a week of not eating and barley being able to stand with his back legs, I brought him into my vet. I would have hoped he would pass at home but we all know how feisty and stubborn Dusty could be! I thank you all so much for the love and care you gave to Dusty during his many stays with you. I always felt so badly when he would snap at some of you but you never seemed to mind and always forgave him. He was a crazy dog at times but he is greatly missed. Thanks again.

-Elaine Honecker

 “I want to thank those of you who were quick to diagnose my problem and give me the care I needed to make it through a “tuff” time. I hold a special place in my owner’s heart that would have created a large void if I did not make it through this. It is because of loving, caring and dedicated people that I am able to enjoy and witness another day. P.S. My owners and “brothers” (Briar and Buck) thank you as well. They would have surely missed me. Who else would keep them in line? Thanks again to all!”

-Sincerely,
    Bo

-Sarah Edwards and Mr. Babs

Dear VCS Staff;

Thank you for the compassionate care you provided to Pollo after his run-in with a foster greyhound. He has improved significantly since being stuck on his belly in an aquarium. He gradually began to sit up and use his legs, and now he is able to perch again. He is in a modified cage with soft floor because still isn’t 100 percent yet. His right leg and foot work better than his left, but he is now walking and using his beak only occasionally to pull himself. He loved all the spoiling and attention he got while recovering and his happy spirit has not faltered. Thank you for all your love and attention!

-Sincerely,
 Pollo Curlett, Kristen and Michael

To My Friends at VCS;

Five months ago, when I was only eight weeks old, I was mauled by a large dog. I came to see you and you nursed me back to a point that I could go home. A week later I came down with a parvo and everyone thought I might not make it. I’m going on six months now and I would have never made it without your help and love. Thank you for giving me that chance for a great life! My whole family will be forever thankful! Happy holidays.

-Kacie Farkas

Dr. Hass and the wonderful staff at VCS;

Thank you for all you kindness and support this past year in treating Devil and Papa. Being considered exotic pets, no other clinic was willing to see them or help in a time with emergency with Devil’s amputation. You and your staff were compassionate and willing to assist the tiniest members of our family. As you know we adopted Papa and his two sons from Earl in 2003 and Devil as a baby in 2005. Papa was up in years and unfortunately passed just recently but without your care we wouldn’t of had him around till now. Thank you for all you’ve done, your hard work and dedication is very much appreciated.

-Mr. and Mrs. Dainell Janette

Dear Dr. Hass;

I appreciate so very much the kindness that you showed to both Buddy and me during the month you cared so well for him. His decline and death came at a very sad time in my life and you eased the difficulty of losing him with your compassion, presence, and support. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

-With many blessings,
