Testimonials.

“We were referred to BluePearl to have our Newfoundland’s paralyzed larynx fixed so he wouldn’t end up suffocating due to one of the flaps not moving out of the way when he inhaled. We are so glad we brought Bentley up to you for his surgery even at his age (he is still going strong at 14). He has slowed a bit but his blood work is good and he still gets around on his own well enough to come looking for treats when he smells food or hears the words ‘treats’ or ‘cookies.’

We are thankful for the skilled doctors and staff that looked after him while he was up there for his surgery and don’t think he would still be with us if we hadn’t brought him in. Thank you for helping us get all of this extended time for him to be with us. At this rate he will be driving soon! Thanks so much again.”
