Has BR Town grown to such proportions that there are no Veterinarians willing to make a house call no matter how exorbitant their fee?

Anyone know any Vets in the Baton Rouge area who want to make some extra pocket money while they practice some compassion? We are in zip code 70815 which is pretty much the middle of town. I am posting here because we are at the end of our rope and so very disappointed.

We have one that comes to our house. What part of town. We’re in riverbend /Nicholson area.

Ask on your Nextdoor app. Someone in your area has one.

With all do respect, get in your car and fricking drive. If there are mitigating circumstances here you certainly aren't explaining then well.

If you really want to help your dog, delete that first paragraph of whining and just leave the 2nd paragraph.

If you need euthanasia services, I have a 9mm and a silencer. We'll do it right in your back yard.

My wife’s out on a vet call right now. Should’ve bought a horse.

If I made a serious post, that would've been my answer. Large animal vets pretty much have to go to their clients. One of them might be able to help.

no Veterinarians willing make a 15 minute visit to evaluate our little dog who we already know is dying from kidney failure?


Who is your regular veterinarian?

Just call the cops and make up a crime occurring at your house. Ignore them when they arrive they’ll probably forcefully enter end shoot your dog for you. Have to get creative instead of sitting there whining.

What a crappy first paragraph. You sound like part of the problem with "BR Town."

We've used Dr. Angie before. No problems with her coming out, although we didn't have an emergency. We are in the 70810 area.
