Quality pet care available (vets & kennels)?

My dog had a serious illness here and we used the recommended vet. I would say that high quality care is not available. Kennels are not available. - Jul 2011


I don't have pets, but some friends do, and you can find good vets. - Jul 2011

There are a few local vets with good reputations. One will even come to your house to administer shots, etc. - Sep 2009
