Everyone at Mercy was always so wonderful with our 2 Pitts Lucca & Chance. Over the last 10+ yrs they was always so kind and friendly with them. Sadly they have both passed away recently. And even through that they was so caring and understanding with them and us. To all the staff, thank you for treating them so wonderful over the yrs and if or when we get a new pet you will be our first choice again.
