About 5 (maybe a bit longer) minutes later they came out and said they did not have surgical staff (which was never mentioned during either of my phone calls)and could not do the c section. They opened the door and took our girl back to examine her. Once we arrived I called to let them know we were in the parking lot. We decided to head there as it was probably the closest vet to us that was open. I immediately asked how much for an emergency c section for a French bulldog on both calls. I called a few more vets in the area then checked back with Fetch as my last call. When I called Fetch, I was given a rough range for cost. I began calling multiple emergency vets in our area. On 12/30 we woke up at 5am to our French bulldog having puppies (a day early). Arguing with your customers online is also a childish thing to do which also shows unprofessional behavior at its best. I still encourage people to not see Dr Johnson and to seek out a different place other than Fetch for their animal needs. Also, if the pet is not dehydrated why introduce them to unnecessary fluids? If you would like peer reviewed articles on fluid volume overload I would be happy to provide them to you. Again I as all animal owners stand firmly behind my comment of treat your patient not your peer reviewed article. All antibiotics can cause resistance when not completed or prescribed properly. Please don’t go to a crisis over your vets incompetence. Suicide is an issue amongst humans in general. Facility was very clean and the front desk girl and the nurse were excellent and kind. I would recommend calling ahead to make sure you do not get Dr Johnson. Please listen to us humans who are the voice and advocates for our pets. Science tells us that bacteria overgrowth needs treatment especially in a symptomatic patient. Dr Johnson, pet owners know their animals and when something is wrong. My dog has had 2 doses and her diarrhea is gone. They evaluated my dog, listened to me, said my pet was no where dehydrated and prescribed flagyl 1/2 tablet BID. I then made my way to the Animal Emergency Clinic of Brandon. Dr Johnson still did not want to do anything so I refused the labs and was out $140 for a wasted visit with no common sense resolution. Why the fluids and labs? Her labs are current and lab values are in normal limits as I explained. Her tongue and nose was nice and moist and her turgor was excellent. I explained to her my dog didn’t need fluids as she was urinating fine and drinking water fine and eating fine. Upon explaining everything to Dr Johnson she recommended IV fluids and labs for $800 and to switch my dog to a chicken and rice diet aka bland. Vet wanted to put my dog on flagyl but wanted to see her first and could not get my dog in for 4 more days so I went to Fetch. I took a stool sample in to her vet who later called and said no parasites but on the higher end of a normal bacteria that was more than likely the problem. ![]() I tried bland diet, pumpkin and probiotics to no relief. This time around I got Dr Johnson and the tables have turned. Had an amazing experience here 3 months ago with Dr Robinson.
