We are husband and wife from Mesquite, Texas. We are the co-authors of this website. We are also "Daddy & Mommy" to Stempy and the rest of our beloved doggies. We do not have any children...our dogs are our kids. We filed a formal complaint with the Texas State Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners in regards to what we allege was veterinary negligence and substandard care provided to our beloved 8 year old AKC champion sired male Shih Tzu, Stempy, by Ann K. Thomas, DVM, Rodeo Dr. Veterinary Hospital, Mesquite, Texas. The complaint was dismissed, appealed, and then dismissed again – despite all evidence proving otherwise. This website is our complaint, in online form, to let the world know what happened to Stempy, and to help advance our efforts to exact justice for Stempy. We will continue to fight for justice.

This website is also a tribute/memorial site to Stempy, and Muffy, too, and a place to show everyone all of our beloved doggies. Visit the Meet Our Doggies page to meet everybody.

This website is also here to try to make others aware of veterinary negligence so that maybe their beloved pets can be spared from the damage inflicted by negligent veterinarians ....and, this website is here to let others know, whose pets are already victims of veterinary negligence, that they are not alone.  We, as pet owners/guardians, must stand up and demand that veterinarians be held accountable for their actions. We will continue on in Stempy’s name in seeking rule changes or whatever else is necessary to hold negligent veterinarians accountable for their actions. Our best advice to you: NEVER blindly trust your veterinarian. Thank you for stopping by Stempy's website and reading his story. He was truly a once in a lifetime dog. We miss you, Stempy!

Cindy and Stempy circa 2002.


Stempy was an AKC champion-sired male Shih Tzu. He was only 8 years old. He was truly a once in a lifetime dog. In our opinion, he had about half of his life taken away from him due to the negligent and substandard care he received at the hands of his vet. Unfortunately, Stempy's veterinarian was:

ANN K. THOMAS, DVM
Rodeo Dr. Veterinary Hospital
Rodeo Dr. Veterinary Hospital
Mesquite, Texas

In our opinion,
we think the DVM means:


(D)oesn't know
(V)eterinary
(M)edicine

Be sure to click the page links at the top of the page to learn all about the alleged substandard & negligent care that Stempy endured for 2 years because we were all-trusting of this vet. If only we had researched two years prior.....

You MUST do your research NOW BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

No matter how great you "think" your vet may be, do not leave it to chance!

There is no 2nd chance for Stempy!

We miss you, little boy!
We will NOT let you die in vain!

NEVER BLINDLY
TRUST YOUR VET!


Let us repeat that....


NEVER BLINDLY
TRUST YOUR VET!

In our opinion, ANN K. THOMAS, DVM is an incompetent vet based on our experience with her and we would NEVER, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, recommend her to anybody with a pet!
In our opinion, Stempy is also a victim of the TEXAS STATE BOARD OF VETERINARY MEDICAL EXAMINERS' complaint system that is supposed to PROTECT OUR PETS, but, instead,
may very well be protecting GUILTY VETS!  Approximately 85% to 90% of ALL consumer complaints filed in Texas against veterinarians are DISMISSED as no violation found!
