I have been going to A Pets Place for 3 years for both of my dogs. Dr. Dan and his wife and staff are great. I had to put my 16 year old rat terrier down and they had her cremated. When I received her ashes is was very nicely done with a urn I picked out with her name on it in a blue velvet bag, a touching card from his staff with the imprint of her foot. This was so touching. They really care. Meloni M

We’ve been coming here for 20 years, we have tried other vets when we moved and nothing compares. It’s worth the longer drive back to Clearwater. Dr. Dan has been our best vet for all our dogs and cats! Friendly, great with our animals and very reasonable on prices.

Dr Dan and his staff are awesome. I haven't had a pet in a while, but when I did, they took great care of my dog and cat. He was so kind and caring when I had to put my dog down.

Vet work, let alone life is not easy. Yet Dr. Cowden persists. And in light of this, he has grown an amazing team and a great office. I myself drive almost 40 minutes to see him after I moved, and cannot imagine me and my girl going anywhere else. He and his team have taken the time to get to know my anxious little shelter dog, and develop a relationship that started with needing a muzzle, to a trusting relationship where she only needs a couple people giving some tight hugs when she's understandably anxious and being worked on. I cant thank Dr. Cowden and his team enough for this, as it is not something I have wholly experienced from a veterinary team before. Please keep persisting. You do amazing work.

THIS PLACE KILLED MY CAT. The doctor prescribed my cat way too much of insulin everyday and I ended up overdosing my cat. When he started having seizures we rushed him to the emergency hospital and once we told them his dose he was on from “dr. Dan” the hospital was shocked to hear how high of a dose he recommended to my cat everyday. They said they NEVER heard of a cat getting that high of a dose of insulin. After I had to put down my sweet baby boy I went back to “dr.dan” to tell him what the hospital told me and he was incredibly rude and took zero responsibility for what he did. Claiming that he has had many cats on that high of a dose. Which is ridiculous when the hospital just told me that the dose was the highest they’d ever seen. He was incredibly insensitive and acted like it was my fault when I was doing what he told me to do!!! This “doctor” is a joke. He isn’t thorough, he doesn’t care about you or your pet.

I have been going to Dr. Cowden for 2 to 3 years now. Today is the last time I will ever seek out his services. My dog was brought into his care around two weeks ago and was misdiagnosed with a bacterial skin infection under his tail. The medication didn’t work, and my dog wouldn’t stop biting himself. I discovered eggs, pus, and a burrowing infection from some sort of living thing. When I walked in to get my dog the help he needed this morning, Dr. Cowden was clearly insulted by the confrontation with his mistake. I had to push for him to consider the symptoms I spoke of. The only reason he became any bit more thorough was because his lovely vet tech Karina, who was actually taking me seriously before he ever thought to. My dog ended up being diagnosed with tape worms and given flea medication and cortisol spray all of that coming out to about $203. The best businesses I know on up to their mistakes and rectify them even if it means losing a little bit of time and money And humbling your ego. Dr. Cowden seems to have lost his true care for animals, because he is not thorough. The ironic part was that he had posters on his bulletin board showing pictures of parasites that were in humans transferred to them by their dog, and how “The best doctor is a veterinarian because their patients can’t answer their questions. They just have to know.” Maybe that was true at some point, but Dr. Caden has lost his touch. If he really cared about doing a good job he would’ve owned up to his mistake. I strongly do not recommend Dr. Couden. Last point. I still don’t know if my dog got the right treatment. The vet didn’t examine a skin sample or anything. Update: from the one star ratings that I am reading currently, it seems like there is a common problem with antibiotic pushing. When we were looking at his tail, which was hard to do because he was in pain and kept moving, I asked him if he wanted me to point my flashlight on the area as we were all crowding over him to see and it was dark, but he said no. He did not take a close look at all. Incompetence comes from lack of care and that makes me livid.
