Review for Actors & Others For Animals, North Hollywood, CA, USA
I called because I was told by our vet that Miika had to have $5500.00 emergency surgery after $600.00 X-rays to repair Mika’s torn TPLO and that she would probably require her other leg operated on shortly after she recovered. I called after Actors and Others after spending many frantic hours researching the surgery. I was lucky enough to speak to Beverly and how my day changed after we spoke. Beverly was supportive, understanding and reassuring. We spoke for quite sometime, but in short she told me that quite possibly our vet was mistaken and many times surgery is not the only answer. Very long story short she directed me to a website and gave me information on how to treat our pup without the trauma of cutting her open. We followed her instructions completely and within 7 weeks Miika is running on the beach, playing and going on hikes all with No limp. We walked our pup for 6 weeks, no running and no jumping. We swam her, we massaged, heat therapy, etc. And Miika is back and happy as can be! Thank you Beverly and Actors and Others for being there for us when we needed it most.
