AMAZING!

Where do I even begin? If I could give the people at The Dining Dog 100000 stars, I would. My near 12 year old dog has done a complete 180 and is like a puppy again.

Never have I seen people love every single animal so much just as if they were their own....and treat us as if we are their only customers. This treatment is given to all customers and fur babies. I didn’t know people this incredible actually existed.

Our story: We brought Misha here after a trip to his regular vet as well as to an oncologist for a second opinion. We initially received devastating news that he had metastatic lymphoma and then were told that he most likely had something else- another form of cancer or a lipoma.

Being an older guy and considering his quality of life, we opted out of an extremely invasive surgery and for more palliative care. I was interested in more holistic care rather than prescription drugs, so naturally I started researching what I could do. From the second we called The Dining Dog- which initially started to just get him on a better food, we were welcomed as family with open arms. Little did we know that this experience would change Misha’s (and our) lives. Althea and Sarah asked us for more information regarding Misha and we filled them in...

We were asked for pictures of him for an initial review and then asked to bring him for a consultation. Althea and Sarah watched him closely and carefully....assessing him down to his coat condition, gums, ears and stiffness while walking just to name a few. They were so in tune with my dog...They knew what he needed right away. After careful observation, they created a unique plan just for him and adjust his care and protocol based on his progress pictures and in-person assessment. All of our questions are answered and we have learned so much in terms of caring for and advocating for our baby.

After just 3 weeks, Misha is completely different. Every time we come for a check-in, he is continually showered with love. So. Much. Love. from each and every person there. I feel it in my heart and I cannot express the gratitude I have for the support, care and knowledge we have received. We are family.

If you are contemplating taking your animal here for anything from a toy to a birthday cake to a full on consultation to develop an individualized plan for your baby... just stop scrolling and go. We are so thankful.
