"I was living in Washington DC and recently bought a house in Indian Head, MD so now the Caring Hands facility is not as close as I would like as it is roughly an hour drive. When I had an emergency with my puppy and had to take her to P.A.W.S here in Indian Head, the terrible experience not only left a bad taste in my mouth but made me appreciate Caring Hands sooooooooooooooooo much more. While my puppy is not aggressive or nasty by nature, maybe a little sassy at times, she was at that time distressed and hurting as she had not been feeling well for days. Instead of empathizing with her or me, the vet there could not stop talking about how she was āa land sharkā and needed training immediately. He questioned her age because she was too fat and was super negative regarding the entire situation. He basically made her out to be a menace. Dr. Gardiner on the other hand comes across as very empathetic and helpful and I canāt tell you how much I appreciate that. There is no other vet I would take my very particular puppy to. "
