  I know this anecdote is very unique, but my wife found a tiny puppy that was incredibly sick. Everywhere we knew of was closed, except for Banfield. The tech who took him back told us that all of the health conditions they could identify were easily treatable, but very expensive. They later called us to pick up the puppy and confirmed that everything was treatable but would cost hundreds of dollars. She gave us some recommendations for food and care, told us to go buy those items, and then meet her in the parking lot in half an hour when she gets off work; she’d give us advice on where to find cheap medicine. When we met her in the parking lot, she gave us a paper bag filled with all the medicines we’d need. We asked how we should pay for them, and she said, “fuck this place, I stole them. You can pay for the medications by never bringing another pet to Banfield.”

    As someone with first hand experience with Banfield… Yeah. That sounds about right.
