    I’ve been taking my dogs here for several years now and each visit has been a wonderful experience. The Dr is very nice and the ladies at the front desk and always friendly and helpful! :)

    Edit to add: I unfortunately had to put down my sweet dog last year and the staff were so kind and empathetic, one lady even crying with me while I carried my dog in. The vet handled the euthanasia very professionally and made to sure to try and shield me from the odd sounds that came from my dogs mouth after(I’m just unfortunately very observant and noticed them anyways but I do deeply appreciate her effort). They let me take all the time I needed in the room with her after...read full review

    The staff is helpful with any questions you may have. They treat your pets with care and compassion. They accommodate you the best they can as far as scheduling is concerned. I have never had a negative encounter at any appointment with them. Their prices are very reasonable.

    Good Shepherd has been my primary vet for all 4 of my pets for years. Good Shepherd has completely changed my life and are always there for our babies. They always get us in very quickly and take the best care of our babies! Would recommend to anyone looking for a caring and affordable vet.
