Hi, My name is Mollie. I am a 11 year old Labrador Retriever. I have been a patient of Dr. Louër since I was adopted by my family in 1998. I became very ill while vacationing at the Jersey shore on July 3rd. Due to my emergency, I had to go to another doctor at the beach. This Doctor did not know me and diagnosed my illness incorrectly. Lucky for me my family brought me back home to Dr. Louër. Dr. Louër diagnosed me with pneumonia and saved my life, once again. I am very grateful to Dr. Louër and his wonderful staff. Their kindness, professionalism, and dedication to animals like myself is heartfelt. Love & Kisses, Mollie |

Thank you for the lovely card. It meant a lot to us. My husband and I are grateful for all the care and love you gave to our beloved Marcus. I know that he too was grateful for all the love you all showed him. Not only will Marcus be waiting to greet us at the Rainbow Bridge, but he will be waiting for all of you as well. |

In Remembrance of Calli From your little blue eyes at birth~ To your furry teddy bear coat~ Your prancing and happy smile at the door~ Your little wiggle when we went for a walk~ Every day you were with us~ From your little kiss through the wrung of the deck~ Knowing your bark was keeping us safe... Our love for you is overwhelming and forever missed Remembering you each day... Love, Barbara, Kevin, Jessica and Tyson |

To all of Ajax's friends and family: Our great constant friend and companion, Ajax, suddenly went into kidney failure three days ago and we had to put him down yesterday. It appears that he contracted Lyme disease even though he had the vaccine (which is only 60% effective) and was asymptomatic as far as we saw. It seems that the disease immediately attacked his kidneys. He loved you all in his sweet, wonderful and sometimes rambunctious way. He brought us joy every day of his life. -Joanne and Mitch |
Since I once worked for GWLAH you might think that I am biased, but you can not know any business, organization or doctor's office until you have gone behind the "employees only" door. To say that the doctors at the GWLAH are compassionate and caring is the grossest of understatements. Every pet that sniffs through that door becomes part of the family. The entire staff rejoices when a life is saved and equally mourns when one is lost. When you bring your pet to one of these doctors, you know that they are not just following a checklist to diagnose an illness. There is an expertise that comes from experience and open mindedness that is not present in other animal hospitals. The people of West Milford and the surrounding areas are spoiled because they have this truly best kept secret within arm's reach. Once you travel outside of this area and deal with another vet for whatever the reason, you then realize the treasure that is the Greenwood Lake Animal Hospital. Thank you for always being there for us. The Gagliano Family. |

Hi, This is Jesse James, he is the baby of Brian & Liz Chiandusse. Your nice doctors helped him with a bad ear infection!! He's all better now! Thanks, Liz |
| Dear Dr. Louër, Dr. Streng, and Staff, We want to thank you for so many wonderful years of helping us to keep Doogie healthy and happy. We wanted you to know that Doogie passed away on 11-6-2005 at the awesome age of 15 1/2 years old. He was a great dog and he brought us tremendous joy which far outweighs the grief we are experiencing now. You guys are the best and very much worth the ride - since we've moved. We hope to see you again whenever the time is right for a new pet. Sincerely, the Meyer Family - Jim, Linda, Christain & Hannah |

Dear Dr. Louër and Staff, I want to thank you so much for taking such good care of me. I'm very happy that you removed the big cyst. I can run around, play and get around so much better without it. I feel like a million bucks! I also wanted to tell you that both my mommy and daddy are very happy that I am feeling so much better. They think the world of you and your entire staff! Everyone there is so helpful, sweet and very caring and that is very important to them! Well - I got to go - It's Dinner Time! Thanks again! Love, Delilah & her Mommy and Daddy |
This is a Thank You Gift from Barbara and Kevin Norton for Our New Office.  |

This a testimonial of a different sort...it illustrates the effect that one man can have on a young student. Dr. Louër received this letter from a student at Our Lady Queen of Peace School. |

Here is Dr. Louërs response. Dear Nolan: Thank you for your kind letter. I was happy to hear that you are still interested in veterinary science. I remember meeting you years ago and at that time you expressed an interest in animal husbandry. I, too, wanted to be a veterinarian when I was your age. I was always interested in any kind of animal related topics, TV programs, books, etc. I attended school in Paris France. The education system is set up very differently in Europe. Students are ranked by testing scores and opportunities are doled out according to your grade. After graduating high school, I had to take a placement test specifically for veterinary sciences. I studied hard for this test and was lucky to place among the very top. I selected a seat in a highly regarded preparatory college. At the end of the year, we were tested again. The top students are offered seats in rank order by their preference. Again, I was ranked at the top and got a very coveted place in Alfort University. The students who were not as fortunate as me had to repeat preparatory college and test again. I studied veterinary science for four years in Alfort. When I was not in school, I would work for various mixed animal practices. This gave me a better understanding of the practice of medicine both with dogs, and cats, and cattle as well. I could implement what I learned and assess areas that I needed to learn more. After the completion of my studies, I sat for final examinations and graduated in 1984. I also had to write a thesis I presented in 1987. I kept working as a relief veterinarian in a few practices in the North of France that I used to visit while in vet school. I became a partner in a practice about 80 miles north of Paris. We were treating mostly dogs and cats, but also taking care of farm animals. As you know I met my future wife Carol. She lived in America and I wanted to live with her. I sold my partnership and immigrated to the United States. I had to then begin my licensing process again. First, I had to pass an English competency test. After that, I needed to pass the National Veterinary Board test. Once I had my scores, I was able to apply for the Practical examination. And then, after passing that, I needed to pass the New Jersey State Board. As you can see, there were a lot of steps and it took time for me to receive the results from each stage. While I was waiting for results, I attended a post-graduate course at the Animal Medical Center in Manhattan. This was very helpful for me to learn how work was structure here and to meet other veterinarians from all over the world. I purchased Greenwood Lake Animal Hospital in 1994. I absolutely love my work, treasure my patients, enjoy my clients and appreciate my staff. Being a veterinarian is very hard work both mentally and physically. Human medicine is broken down into specialties and sub-specialties. As a veterinarian, you have to do it all. As a veterinarian, you are helping sick animals, trying to expedite their recovery, making them feel better when they are sick, and preventing disease. Veterinary medicine is an ever changing field where new advances are made regularly. You have to work long hours, but can also be your own boss. I invite you and your classmates to come visit us. I would be happy to give you a tour and introduce you to a few of our patients. Sincerely, Eric Louër, D.V.M. |

Rosie ~ A Seeing Eye Dog Rosie was 7 weeks old when she came to us from the Seeing Eye located in Morristown, NJ. She was a 10 pound ball of fluff with a lovely personality. Rosie is a female Goldadore, half Yellow Lab and half Golden Retriever. My husband and I are puppy-raisers for Seeing Eye. Rosie was a member of our family for 17 months. She then returned to the Seeing Eye in Morristown for her formal guide dog training. She was assigned to a trainer for 4 months and did exceptionally well. She passed all required testing, both medical and guide dog requirements with outstanding results. We are very proud that she is now assisting a blind person to navigate the world. We thank Greenwood Lake Animal Hospital, Dr. Louër and especially Dr. Janet Streng who cared for Rosie and donated their services to keep our Seeing Eye puppy healthy and up to date with all her shots. Thank you for the professional and loving care you provided. You were a big part of Rosie's success. We are now raising a new Seeing Eye pup named Gladys, and along with our friends at Greenwood Lake Animal Hospital we look forward to the day she will bring new independence and security to a blind person. To learn more about Seeing Eye dogs or puppy raising visit : Sincere appreciation, Maria & Jeff Gernitis |
