Need A Good Vet in Richardson, TX!!!
 

We are fairly new to the Richardson area, and will soon be adding an 8-year-old Yorkie boy to our little family of two. My friend in AZ had a stroke and feels she can no longer care for him (but if she ever wants him back we will return him). Since our Hailey went to the Bridge on 12/23/06, we've been very sad,:rbyorkie: so I think Yogi needs us and we need him. My hubby is flying out to get him and bring him back the same day. I wish I could go, but for now, am under "no fly" restrictions from my doc.

I need a good vet, and maybe a good back-up vet in the Richardson, TX area. I am looking for someone who genuinely loves animals (you'd think that would be a given, wouldn't you?), who is kind and gentle, who is smart and cutting-edge in his/her knowledge, who runs a clean, clean, clean office, and who has a kind and caring staff. It would also be nice if they didn't nickel and dime us at every turn. I don't want much, do I?

I've had a lot of dogs over my lifetime, and this will be our third Yorkie. I've had great vets and terrible vets, and sometimes I didn't learn they were terrible until too late.:mad: So it would also be nice to know who NOT to go to.

Many thanks, fellow Yorkie Lovers!

Welcome to YT! Can't help you with the vet. Hope you find what you want. Can't wait to see pictures of your new boy.

Thank you LilBit. You can see Yogi and Sweet Smiling Hailey (my angel) on my avatar. More Yogi pix coming soon.

I still need a good vet in Richardson, TX. Anyone???

Welcome to YT! I wish I could help with your question, but I live on the other side of the Metroplex. Good luck finding one!

Thank you for the welcome, Sadie's Mom. Surely I will find some Yorkie addicts in the Richardson area.

I'm sure you will! There's a lot of us in DFW

More than I ever imagined! And some of them have to live in Richardson!

Vet in RIchardson
 

Dr. Block at Cottonwood clinic is the BEST..
He was my vet during whelp with Bunny and he and I became very close. His number is 469-330-0357.

He was even available for phone call on NEw years day, thats when she delivered. He is amazing and quite the surgeon if ever needed. He helped a little maltese whos owners had no money did a double amputation over awful accident...

HE is the best, you tell him Denise with Bunny and her pups sent you

Thank you Denise! BTW, when did you move to Waco?

Waco
 

I moved here in Aug of 2006. I usually keep two vets around and had to go thru the same thing of finding vets down here...I miss Dr. Block and CHVC down in Cedar Hill...They were my mainstay vets for years

Welcome to YT. I am in Fort Worth, so I cannot help with the vet situation, but there are alot of people form the DFW area, so someone is bound to know of a vet.
