My dog Rocco hurt his back leg and I was simply too busy to take off work that day to get him to our vet. I called the office and explained my dilemma and Dr Shively offered to come to my house and pick up Rocco for me and examine him in his office (8 miles away). He even took my other dog, Sophie, along as well so she wouldn't be alone and my husband picked them both up after he got off work. As it turned out, Rocco has a torn ACL and will need surgery. I can't thank Dr Shively enough for going above and beyond and taking such wonderful care of my pets. He's the best!!!
