1)We had Sheba (shepherd mix) for 19 years before she died. The entire time she was under the care of Belmont Pet Hospital on Harbor Rd in Belmont. She got to the point that she even welcomed going there and as we drove up to it, she started wagging her tail and letting us know how excited she was.

They took excellent care of her through that 19 years even through two bouts with skunks that happened in short succession. We took her there and they cleaned her up very well (2x within 6 weeks.) She had arthritis and a couple of other things before she died and they walked with us through that time with immeasureable compassion and concern.

We boarded her there when we went out of town and she loved that too.

Because of all of the above, I would heartily recommend Belmont Pet Hospital. The doctors there are wonderful and Debbie (?) the front desk person is teriffic.

2) We considered insurance and did not get it for reasons mentioned before.

3) Belmont hospital was our go-to place for everything as listeed above including grooming.

I wish you and your daughter much happiness with the Bichon and which ever Veterinary Clinic you select.
