Vetco Clinic is not there yet. Had a puppy with bloody diarrhea. First appt was great, coordinating with local locations during my travel was great for medicine. But when my puppy took a turn for the worse after the medicine finished I called them and I was told I would get a phone call back in 24-48 hours. I said “excuse me?” My dog is bleeding out of his butt do I come in for another appointment or what? Anyway, I never got that phone call. Keep your local vet…
