Please DO NOT take your pet here! I saw an employee of the VCA Animal Hospital hitting a dog repeatedly outside the facility after hours. The poor dog's leg was wrapped and he/she had a cone around his/her head, so I'm not sure what the dog could have possibly done, not that hitting a dog is EVER justified to me. I had been in contact with the animal hospital, and they said they took action but wouldn't tell me what action. I still saw the vehicle the employee was putting the dog in at the facility long after the incident, so it doesn't seem she was fired. I was extremely upset for days after the incident and still get very upset when I think of it. A person who treats animals like that should never be working in an animal hospital, and her pets should have been taken from her. If you love your pets, please do not take them to VCA!
