Champlin Park Pet Hospital

We bought a puppy at the humane society, there is a list given for a free health checkup at participating vets. Champlin Park was on that list, so we took the puppy there. We also bought a bunch of vaccinations, one required a booster shot 2 weeks later. My wife handled all of this so far, I was asked to take in the dog for the booster. She set it up for 2 days before my payday, I had $ 47 to my name at the time. I figured that would be enough for a booster shot. It came to $ 52, the cashier was real mean about it. I assured her that with 3 animals at home we would cover it next time. She replied «We are not in the business of carrying debt here, we expect to be paid at the time of service.» I explained that it was all I had until friday, I even apologized and assured her it would be covered next time. She pressed on «dont you have anything, a credit card, a debit card, something ?» I reiterated myself «This is all I have until payday, I will pay you in full next time.» At this point she got real angry with me and said «Fine. You will owe the $ 5 next time, and from now on we will need to quote you an estimate upfront. If you cannot afford to pay the estimate in full prior to service we will not be able to do anything for your pet that day.» Needless to say I will drive to the rogers pet clinic (763) 428‑8688 before I will walk the 3 blocks to the Champlin Park Pet Hospital. I have used the Rogers clinic for 2 years now, always had the most friendly and knowledgeable service you can find.
