Ark Animal Hospital has taken care of our pets (cats and dogs) since 1995. My husband and I trust Dr. Norris, Dr.Carroll and all of the other doctors we have seen with all aspects of our animals' health and wellbeing.
I had trusted this Ark Animal Hospital for over five years.. This year they insisted that we switch our dogs to Trifexis for heart worm and flea control.. The day after the 2nd monthly dose our 35 lb Eskimo, Moxie, died in my hands after I got home from work. I called Ark about this and they indicated that our dog was in good heath and could not offer an explanation on why she had died... Four months later,our second dog, Sasha, had a major attack, less than 24 hours after taking Trifexis .. This time we raced across town to a 24 hour emergency vet who was able to stabilize our dog and ran some bloodwork.. This is when we found out that Trifexis had triggered a seizure in our dog almost killing her, and this was definitely why our first dog Moxie died.
I no longer trust Ark Animal Hospital. I believe for the prices we were paying for service and the expensive drugs they talked us into, they should of at least warned us that by switching to this relatively new drug there was a risk that our dogs could have seizures and die! No, instead Ark Animal Hospital was more concerned about pushing this new drug and selling as much as they can for profit and in the end they did not even offering an apology when the drugs they prescribe killed on of our pets!
