I am looking for a new vet preferably in the north metro (blaine, ham lake area) I love my vet and if I needed something major would continue to make the drive to stillwater, but for routine stuff like vacs, and minor diagnosis I would like something a little closer. Wondering if anyone has a vet they would recomend.

I have been going to the vet at North Brook Animal hospital in Brooklyn Park off 252 on West river road.

They are nice people, the vet has 25 years in the buisness and they are reasonably priced.

Email me if you need the phone number.

My dog goes to Kelley Animal Hospital in Circle Pines. They are really on top of their stuff their and take good care of him. If you are in need of decent priced vacs, try Dr. Walls in the Northtown Mall area.

Pine Ridge off of Bunker Lake Rd. is a very good vet. A little on the pricey side though. I switched over to Banfield (in Petsmart) by Riverdale. They have great prices when you get the pet insurance & they seem to do a excellent job.

I like Murray animal hospital which I think is in Mounds View. It's 5 min from my house in Blaine right by Riverdale I believe. I have not used any of the other mentioned vets though.

I have to second Pine Ridge in Andover as well (on Bunker Lake Blvd about 2 miles from the Blaine and Ham Lake borders). I also agree they tend to be on the pricey side but you trade that with multiple vets, longer hours daily and Saturday and although I've not needed it they do have the tanks for water rehab work, etc..

Honest truth is when we are out of town my GSP goes there for boarding as well and although you pay thru the nose for the suites, my wife trusts them and knows the dog gets good care and she is the one that wants the dog there. Tess gets to watch tv (usually Animal Planet)and goes outside three times a day (with daycare report of what she did outside--usually involves a walk and fetch with a tennis ball) and I get to pay for the stool test before she is allowed in and major piece of mind with family. Also the vets and techs give each dog a quick look over when they get dropped off which is "free". Worth it to me.

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
