We have gone to Dr. Haerther for many years even after moving away. We gladly drive an hour to see him. He is straight talking and really cares about our dogs. So the dogs urinate in the bushes before coming in. So what! Get over it. Dr. Haerther is the best!

I highly recommend Dr. Haerther and the staff at Cozycroft Hospital!!! I don't know what the people below are saying, but my experiences have been wonderful with them. They treat my dogs like family, Dr. Haerther takes time with assessing them and their needs, and it does not cost me a fortune!!! Oh, one more thing, I have been and seen their facility, and it is sanitary !!! Hello.... You must have been really obnoxious with them, that is why you did not get the chance to see their very sanitary facility!!! In addition to that, you need to understand that it is a priority for them to keep the place sterile, ESPECIALLY when there are surgeries. You probably did not even think that maybe there is an EMERGENCY, and a surgery was needed by the time you had to go back in the afternoon... DUH!!! Selfish, selfish selfish... Most important thing, my pets, as in MY PETS LOVE to go there!!! That says a lot!!!

The people below are out of their minds. I absolutely love Dr. Haerther and all of his staff.

My dog and I have always been treated like family. They always fit me when I need an appointment, and they are always willing to help me over the phone if I need advice. And although they are all the way out in Chatsworth, I will still drive all the way from Sherman Oaks to see them. I have been to mulitple other vets in the hopes that I would find someone closer, only to find myself returning to Dr. Haerther. Other vets charge outrageous prices and have no bedside manner. Dr. Haerther is always honest, very caring, and will not have you spending money on treatments and tests that are unneccesary. I have brought my Sherpard, Joe, there for everything under the sun, from epileptic gran mal seizures, nail bed infections, urinary tract infections, etc. He caringly and promptly cured every single one of his ailments. He even saved one of the family puppies from Parvo (and only 1 in 10 dogs make it when they have Parvo). I love Dr. Haerther and will continue to take every single one of my pets to him.

To the person below who is complaining that they couldn't see the boarding facilities due to a surgery!???? If my dog was there for surgery (it is an animal hospital BTW), I wouldn't want random people walking back and forth through the operating room. Geez, so sorry that the layout of the place doesn't suit YOUR needs. You selfish person!

All that matters is that the place suits the needs for our family members (our pets), not your need to take a tour.

I have to disagree with the other reviews here. In fact after my visit the first thing I said was, "Those people at Cozycroft are really nice!" Dr. Haerther seemed to me to be a very good Vet and I trust him. I spoke to a person named Susie during a follow up call and she was very helpful too. They gave my kitten a refill with no need to bring him in saving me $. I dunno, I had a good experience there and I think the other reviews must have been isolated events and not indicative of what goes on there normally. I like Cozycroft!

For boarding, do not go here. Twice we tried to view the boarding area and were told no because " a surgery was in progress" and we weren't allowed to walk through the surgery area. Huh? You have no other way to get to the kennels than through the operating room we asked? They said "No, but the surgeries are in the morning so come in the afternoon." So, we came in the afternoon, and guess what? There was a dog in surgery and we couldn't look again. So we offered to come in a back or side door so as not to the disturb the dog. "No, there is no other way in ...." they said. That's preposterous, against fire regulations, and makes no sense. They obviously didn't want us to see the kennel area. In addition to the above, the staff was not friendly at all.
