Dakota Large Animal Clinic

Unprofessional and disrespectful first impression. While the front desk staff were polite and doing their best, the experience was overshadowed by one of the owners speaking extremely loudly on a personal phone call in the front office area. The conversation was about her car being in the shop, and the volume was so disruptive that I could not concentrate on completing my paperwork. The receptionist was also clearly having difficulty hearing me. I addressed the situation politely and respectfully, saying: “Miss, with all respect, you are being very loud and I’m having a hard time concentrating on my paperwork.” There was no acknowledgment, and the loud personal conversation continued. This was my first visit, and it was disappointing and unacceptable behavior from someone in leadership. A

Called today with an emergency situation. I have a little dog who has been fighting pancreatic cancer for a year. Today she had a stroke and Dakota large animal (who has seen some of my dogs in the past) could not get her in for euthanasia. Was told they couldn’t help me. She was struggling and I was hoping to not have to make the 25 minute drive to town. 💔

I've been going to the large animal clinic for almost 2 years for my dogs health and care, today she went in for shots and had a histimine reaction and her face ended up swelling up, after one call they let me come back and within 20 minutes they had her on an IV drip and only charged me 5$, very very reasonable prices and very amazing and caring staff, they could tell i was flustered and assured me they would take care of her. when i got her back she was considerably better and were very informative of aftercare and to reach out if she had a continued reaction. again, very amazing staff and i couldn't be more thankful.

Dr. Jamie and the crew are great. We recently had our Rottweiler in for a checkup to find out she had Osteosarcoma in her rear legs. Needless to say we were pretty shook up. Jamie took the time to answer my questions. Listen to my suggestions and develop an end of life plan for my furbaby. When the day came for my baby girls final day, Jamie again was caring and companionate. She "gets it" and what it means to be deeply connected to an animal that you love. If you want a professional animal expert that still has a warm heart. Call Dr. Jamie. You wont be disappointed.

My girl loves the people here. The are so good with the animals and very knowledgeable. She has no fear of going to see them. She willing goes in and seems happy to see her friends.
