I had taken my trash out one day and when I went out the gate I did not close it all the way, two of my three dogs snuck out and hid behind my camper outside of thr fence until I went back into my house and then they left, (I had 3 American Staffordshire Terriers, a mama, daddy,and daughter). The next time I went back out into the back yard, I realized that the daddy and daughter were gone, and I thought they must have gotten out when I took out the trash, so I jumped in my truck and went looking, when I didn't find them I returned home and the daddy was at the back gate without his daughter( which she is deaf), so I once again went looking for her to no avail, I returned home and made picture posters of her and after 10 days and 400 miles still not found her, a relative suggested I post the posters at all the animal clinics etc., so I did. The very first day of that one of the clinics called as said they think they have her, so I jumped in my truck and went there, sure enough there she was. I could not believe it was her after 10 days, the girls at the vet said they had her for the full 10 days. I was shocked they kept her for so long. When they brought her out to me, my Blondie was so happy and nervous that she like vibrated across the ceramic floor right to me and jumped up into my arms licking me on my whole head and her tail beating my legs. The clinic did not charge me a dime for the room & board. They became my Vet that day.

Dr. Rickords is the best vet we have ever had the pleasure of having. He treats us and our pets like family and the entire staff is very welcoming and genuinely cares, as Dr. Rickords does, about all his patients and their families. We moved 45 minutes away from Dr. Rickords hospital and tried to use vets close to us but never did we get treated in a welcoming manner, like we belong there. It is so important to us that when we walk in the door it's like meeting family - and exactly why we now drive the 45 minutes to have him take care of our dogs, even if it's simply for a puppy check up or shots updates. Dr. Rickords was there when we had to put one of our Rhodesians down for a rare intestinal disease. He paired us up with a internal specialist but was with us all the way until the end when we had to let Kato go. We've had pets for many years and by far Dr. Rickords out performs every vet I've ever dealt with. He deserves the vet of the year award.
