My 14 year old galgo (Spanish greyhound) is in the last stages of life with an inoperable tumor. Dr. Dawson is very compassionate about his needs and is advising us on how to give him the best possible care to keep him happy and pain free in his final days. I feel very comfortable talking to her about what is best for him because she listens and cares. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs veterinary care for their pet.

I have been to this Clinic several times when my regular vet was not in on weekends to have a c-section done on my dogs and they did take her right away and did a wonderful job in stitching her back together. What a fantastic job. Better by far than what Dr. Charlene had been doing at Wayne Heights. There they always ended up having a hernia where you had to pay again to repair it. And they caused the death of three dogs and almost killed two more.Penny stated they were given too much whatever she called it stuff to put them out and they were still not fully out of it when they sent the dogs home one died and the other two would have died had I not rushed them back. Making it like they were so sorry and I did nothing when I should have. But there they suck up to you so you would feel guilty to report them, Won't happen again. With Waynesboro Clinic they have always been so kind even though with a regular visit the wait seemed to take forever. But I have to say this last time I took my dog there to have a dead puppy taken out during covid. The doctor came out to tell me she had a stage 3 heart murmur and she was not even 15 months old, where I was told they usually would outgrow at the age or around the age of 15 months. He persisted I should have her spayed.I told him no. then he came at me again and said once they have a puppy to pass the birth canal like this one did and get stuck and die that every litter she would have now the same thing would happen. He said do you want me to spay her and I said NO. So he went in after being told 3 times no I do not want to spay her. When the gal came out for me to fill out the form I put on the bottom DO NOT SPAY. So she comes back out and said the doctor said if he opens her up and finds damage done to her uterus he will have to spay her rather I wanted her spayed or not .I looked at her and knew he was going to find a way to spay my dog. So I told her to get my dog and bring her back out here. I do not want him to touch my dog because I knew he was going to spay her. I have not went back. Not saying I never will,but I will not be pushed and I would have no proof anything was wrong with her.And they have always been kind and caring when I went there.These stars are really only for that doctor who was an older man and not that bad looking and he was kind, but just because a young dog had a heart murmur did not mean she would not out grow By the way she no longer has a murmur and none of her three litters of puppies has ever had one so far.Never let anyone pressure you into anything.Follow your gut. Had she still had one after 15 months I would have had her spayed.He told me she would never pass the pup on her own and she did.I was going to attach the photo,but it is not a very good looking sight for a lot of people to see. If you would like to know more call me I will be happy to talk to you.No answer leave a brief message and I will call you back 3012414159
