Thank God AWS in Kennebunk was quick to act/help us with this situation. They took our vets information as well as the rescue who refused to take the dog back.

The vet took him out back and we sat in the waiting room and listened to our poor dog scream in pain as they poked him multiple times trying to put an IV in his poor old veins, until I had enough and told the receptionist to get the vet immediately! I told him this was supposed... read full review
