Preventive care

Dr. Verna (Dr. Becky) earned our respect when she helped our elderly black Lab, Annie. Annie was a nervous wreck at vet visits until we started with Paws. It was clear that Annie was the center of attention at each visit. Unfortunately, our beloved dog passed over the rainbow bridge, but we are so appreciative that Dr. Becky loved her as we did, and that she was able to make her last couple of months better than we thought possible. If we ever get another dog, Dr. Becky will be our only choice for care.

We are having a few medical issues with Hanno, our 5 y.o. German Shepherd. He had his first seizure about two months ago, then another one a month ago. At that point we opted to stop all pharmaceuticals (Apoquel, ProHeart 12) especially after learning they can cause seizures. Going forward we will get titers testing done before doing any further vaccinations. We looked around Boise for a holistic vet practiced in Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) so we could holistically heal Hanno and thought we’d found one. The results were less than impressive and we are still waiting to hear back from them a week later! I remembered that Rebecca L G Verna is a Holistic Vet and I contacted her. This morning, she spent an hour and fifteen minutes on the facetime call with my wife and me. She asked a TON of questions and even looked at Hanno over the video. Her knowledge is impressive and I felt like she was really invested in his well-being. She gave Hanno more attention on the facetime call than the local “TCVM” vet did in person. Not an exaggeration at all. Going forward, our go to vet is Dr. Becky Verna at Paws for Holistic Pet Care and we will use the local vet to run the labs and do the ‘hands on’ things we cannot do over the phone. You want a vet who will lean forward into the care of your doggie, I highly recommend Rebecca L G Verna. Thank you Becky!

When it was time to help our 14yo pup cross the bridge, we called Dr Becky based on several recommendations. She made the entire, heartbreaking experience as easy and peaceful as possible for our family by coming to the home to perform the euthanization. Her presence was calming, loving, and respectful of the difficulty we were going through. What a blessing to have her here with us for the most difficult part of this transition. Thank you ❤️ 🐕 🌈

Dr. Verna not only loves and professionally cares for our two beloved Bosties (Boston Terriers), Zion and Zoey, she calls us from time to time just to make sure they are doing fine! We know of no other doc who would do that! She truly cares about our furry family members, and we all love her, too. ~ The Schaefer Family ~

Dr. Verna was very personable, understanding, and patient with my doggie! She made sure my baby was comfortable and well taken care of. She was having problems of when I touched her on her side she would yelp with pain. After her treatment she is all better and no longer having issues! Highly recommend!
