You're wrong....about dogs, ear drops and deafness. Surolan® is used to treat otitis externa (infection and/or inflammation of the ear) in dogs caused by yeast and bacteria. Topical sensitivity and reduced hearing or deafness may occur. Other side effects may also occur.

Interesting - how did this work when you needed records for the dogs?

Another vote for Dr Huff at Leesburg Animal Hospital. They have been very responsive and caring for our little dog.

And as far as dogs go, it is far more likely the side effects are idiosyncratic and not dose related, but I could be "wrong" PS: feel free to look up idiosyncratic in the dictionary |

We used to buy vaccines and syringes from Dr. Foster and Smith and a couple of the other on-line pet supply places. The vaccines used be (probably still are) a cocktail in one vial. Rabies is probably best left to a vet. The actual technique is pretty simple. If you haven't done it before there are YouTube videos. Inject in the pulled up skin by the shoulders and draw back to make sure you don't get blood. It probably makes the most sense to do it yourself if you have a couple of dogs.

We used to just tell our vet what vaccines and when and he would mark it down.

We used to do kennel cough when it was a liquid sprayed up the nose. Not sure what it is now. Every time, except the first, was a struggle ;-) Apparently our dogs had an excellent memory. The injected vaccines are a piece of cake.

I have been hearing “horror stories” about vets in the Villages area for the last three or four years from neighbors and some friends. No different than dentists, car dealers, plumbers, landscapers, etc. where there are no “checks and balances” other than word of mouth.
Let’s face reality!! The average income for residents here is well above average and it’s a perfect place to charge residents what ever the market will bear for the services needed for 140,000 paying customers. The only advise worth giving is what has already been said. Shop around and ask others for information on whatever service or purchase you are going to need or make. Otherwise, be prepared to be scammed or ripped off. Seniors Against Crime may be helpful.

Country Oaks Veterinary Clinic, just past Del Webb on 441/27. You must pass it and make a U- turn a short ways past the clinic.

We recommend Dr. Timothy Porter, as well. Animal Care Center of Wildwood on 301. Been going there for years. He is caring, calm and gentle with our pets. I find the cost reasonable compared to others in TV.
Prior to him, we had used Mulberry on Route 42, until they sent our blind friend's very ill seeing eye dog home with her when they should have hospitalized her dog. When they got home, the dog started seizing and died a horribly traumatic death. No care, no accountability. We lost all trust and switched vets.
