Services
We stress the importance of an annual physical examination because of the shorter lifespan of our pets. We also recommend twice a year for life (for those older pets that need a little extra attention.) Thorough checkups and preventive care can help alleviate serious health problems. We offer a wide range of veterinary services to keep your companions feeling their best:
ANESTHESIA: We utilize the safest available anesthetics to provide an extra margin of safety, especially for our older or high-risk patients. Using the most modern equipment, the patient's vital signs are monitored during all anesthetic procedures.
 BATHING & GROOMING: Routine and therapeutic bathing services are available. We have a groomer on staff with over 30 years experience that can make even the ugliest dog look like a hometown show dog.
BEHAVIOR COUNSELING: We can provide advice regarding the correction of problems such as excessive barking, chewing, spraying, scratching, digging, house soiling and aggression.
BOARDING:  We provide pet boarding as a service to our clients. All boarders receive personal attention from our caring staff. Please have all vaccines, heartworm tests & fecals up to date. Bring paperwork prior to dropping off with us, if we did not do the vaccines, so we can verify the updates. Pets may be dropped off and picked up during regular business hours Monday through Saturday.
