Title: Vet Recommendation (Seattle)
Post by: dye7barrel on June 21, 2015, 09:30:03 AM: My wife and I will be getting our first bird dog together in the next couple of months. We'll be getting a Griffon, can't wait!

We are looking for a vet in the North Seattle/Seattle area as well as a 24 hour emergency hospital. Any recommendations, or people to stay away from, are greatly appreciated.

Dr. Kleven is a hunter, and his fees are a bit more reasonable than some of the chains I've seen. I haven't had to use a 24 hours service, but have constantly been referred to the VCA clinics, there is one kind of North Ballard. Not much of an endorsement, but when in a life/death pinch any vet is better than no vet.

I'm also a versatile dog guy, if you want to hook up and plant a bird for your dog sometime, LMK and we'll get it sorted.
