“We recently adopted a puppy and were referred to Deschutes by a friend. We are so happy they recommended them! Everyone there was thorough, helpful and very friendly. Best of all, our pup was treated like family. Highly recommend!!”
“We recently had to put our first family dog down who we had since we were 19. We were really concerned with the process and wanted him to have the best, most comfortable care. We had seen other dogs put down at other facilities and were never really impressed with how it was handled. The dog would lay on a thin blanket in a normal vet room and that’s how they got put down. At Tumwater vet they had a whole separate room. It was filled with comfy seats and a comfy couch along with a padded blanket floor for the dog to lay on. They stocked it with snacks and brought out a tray of doggy treats like chocolate and peanut butter and some water. They gave us as much time as needed and provided a free paw or nose print. The lights were dim and once we were ready they gave him a sleeping sedative and then stopped his heart. It was very peaceful and we laid with him for awhile. We were even able to bring our other dog(which they crated for us during the process) in to see him after he passed. All in all the best possible experience we could’ve had for one of the toughest moments for our family.”
“For the past 14 years, we’ve been coming to Boulevard, and I can honestly say they are absolutely the best. Over the years, Sarah, Dr. Braun, and the entire team have taken such amazing care of our animals, and we couldn’t be more grateful for them.
We recently had an emergency with one of our dogs, King, over the weekend when the clinic was normally closed. Even though it was his day off, Dr. Braun went completely out of his way to call, check in on us, and make sure we were able to get King the prescription and care he needed. That meant so much to us and really showed how much they genuinely care about the animals they treat and the people who trust them with their pets.
Sarah, one of the technicians, has also been taking care of my cat Boots, and she has always been incredibly helpful, compassionate, and professional. She takes the time to answer questions, explain things, and make sure we feel comfortable with everything going on.
After 14 years of coming here, one of the things I appreciate most is that I’ve never once felt pressured into unnecessary procedures, tests, or expenses. They have always been honest, transparent, and focused on doing what is actually best for our animals. That kind of trust is incredibly important, especially when your pets are such a big part of your family.
Boulevard is a small local business, but they treat you like family, not just another patient or another number. You can tell that the people who work here genuinely care about what they do, and that level of compassion and personal attention is something you don’t find everywhere.
Thank you, Sarah, Dr. Braun, and everyone at Boulevard, for everything you do and for taking such great care of our animals over the years. We truly appreciate you guys more than you know! 🙏🐾”
