            On Friday September 22, 2023 I rushed my dog ****** to the horizon veterinary specialist. It was the only one open 24/7. After the initial examination they handed me a bill for $4,000 which needed to be paid right then or he would be put down. The only other option was to hand my rights over to a business called sparc who would pay everything then adopt him out. They didn't offer payment plans, programs, non profits. Nothing else. They wouldn't proceed with the surgery until they had the payment. To save my dog I had to sign him over. ****** was like our child. We love him and he loves us. Having to see all his toys knowing he's not coming back is tourcher. I felt discriminated against because the bill clearly states the money was due appn discharge. Why not for me? If id had more time even I could have figured something out. I never thought taking my boy to the vet I'd be leaving without him. For good. This is wrong. This is cruel. This is evil. No wonder they aren't bbb accredited.

            They don't even deserve 1star. They made me sign over rights to my dog because I couldn't come up with $4,000 in 10 minutes. No payment plans, any other options, programs, nothing. The bill even said payment was due apon discharge. I needed to pay right then and there for them to even start the emergency surgery. I had no other choice but to sign him over. Now he will go to sparc who will adopt him out. I'm still just in shock.
