Here was a Vet that hated Hound Dogs and would try to convince every hound owner to let him kill their dog. Both him and his partner killed at least 9 good hounds that I know of for no reason at all. Ed Vance

Fred, I'm not embarrassed to say, was my very first love at San Lorenzo High School. Our Birthdays were only one day apart, his on April 6th, mine on April 7th. As an SLz Pom Pom girl I cheered #19 on to many victories. I am so proud of his lifetime achievements as a beloved veterinarian and a loving husband and father. My sincere condolences to his wife and family.

Dr D became our Vet five years ago, when we moved to Porterville. We've never met a more loving and giving Vet! What a wonderful man! We'll miss him very much! Sending Love, and Prayers to his family and Staff.

Dr. Dietrich was such a kind man. He took care of my dogs for 19 years. My dogs were always happy to see him, they especially loved if they got to spend some time. My last dog had to be put down and as I was crying he walked me to my car, put my pup in to be buried at home. He stopped and reminded me that he had taken care of Pokie for 19 years. You gave him a good life. He cared for people as well. God bless his family and bless them as Dr. blessed our special family members. Just a really kind man.

God Bless you my dear and kind friend. You have given me and my pets so much in the past couple of decades. We will all miss you, your humor and kindness. I know you are with so many departed friends, family and animals and they are enjoying you as much as those you left behind are missing you. Peace and serenity in your new life, Karen
