Title: Vet Recommendation Tri-Cities WA
Post by: clayton95 on August 06, 2017, 04:58:47 PM: Looking for a vet recommendation for the Tri-Cities area that is reasonable and honest. We are in Kennewick so within a 1 hour drive would be preferred. We have a 3 year old chessie. Thanks, Clayton

Saw my lab, sees my airdale and now my chessie. Not a hunter herself but understands I am and my dogs are and respect that. Works well with then and will do whatever you want and understands our pets have a financial limit if they do.

We've taken one of our dogs to Paws Claws and Hooves in WR because it's close, and they were good/reasonabe too.

Animal Hospital of Pasco is where we go too.

Before that I used desert vet, never a bad experience there, just switched when I needed to get right in and they were closed for whatever reason.
I'd use either one.

Post by: hunting4sanity on August 07, 2017, 07:32:56 PM: I haven't used any of the Tri Cities vets, but it sounds like there are some options. If you're still looking for options, I'd suggest the Hermiston Vet Clinic.

Post by: 95powersmoker on August 09, 2017, 09:55:07 AM: I also use Animal Hospital of Pasco, but I am thinking about looking for another vet as I feel like every time I take my pup there, I see a vet for 2 seconds and then we are walked to the front door.
