I am writing to express my appreciation to the staff at All Paws Animal Clinic and the Veterinary Care Foundation.
My recently acquired boxer puppy was happy, healthy and smart when I got him and seemed perfect. It was love at first sight for my family and I. Then my puppy started having strange seizures about two months after I got him. After numerous veterinary visits, including specialty offices and neurology consults, we still had no diagnosis.
The neurologist was recommending that we run an MRI of the brain, spinal tap with fluid analysis and an EKG. I had exhausted my financial resources with all of the visits and tests already done. My family and I were devastated, as the breeder was refusing to assist with medical expenses. They requested that I return the puppy for them to euthanize.
I felt that I had no other option available, until Dr. Patty and Vicki at All Paws offered to help with payment through their new Pet Care Rewards Program and the Veterinary Care Foundation that the rewards program helps to fund. I was able to have all three tests performed and find out that my pet has no serious health issues. If not for this assistance, I may not have my pet today.
Currently he is taking anti-seizure medication and doing well. We are hopeful that he will grow out of the seizures within the next year. I cannot thank All Paws and the Veterinary Care Foundation enough for the lifetime of love I will now share with my puppy!
