Morningside Animal Care is the best! I called from Germany as soon as I found out that my dog has been told to wait for 6 hours to get bite stitches from Russell Ridge Animal hospital. Morningside was quick to respond and took great care of my dog. Their staff is amazing!!! Samantha whom I spoke to over the phone was very helpful. She even gave me Jets vital signs and what medications he has been prescribed. I'm so thankful for this facility and staff! Ya'll are amazing and may God bless you abundantly.
Background of the story:
My dog (Jet) was viciously attacked by another dog today at 9am. Jet (8yrsold) was protecting my dad and foxy (4lb pomeranian) from a pit bull that got loose in the neighborhood. When my Dad brought Jet to our Vet, that vet just looked at the bites and said that they are busy and to bring Jet back at 3pm. Jet had been bitten twice. One at the back of the ear and one at the neck area by a pitbull.
I don't know why Russell Ridge didn't give my dog pain medication to alleviate Jet's pain since Jet was already in their facility being looked at. The vet said to come back later which was a 6 hour wait! Which is crazy by the way because they had time to type up a report and how much it will cost for my dog to be treated. Jet is a dog but he is family. For someone to withhold pain medication for 6 hours when they can do something right then is cruelty.
