Did you know that most pets see muted colors?

While dogs can’t see the same array of colors that humans can, they can discern between yellow and blue (making them red-green color blind).

When choosing your pet’s holiday gift this year, maybe opt for a yellow or blue toy! 🔵
Share this post if you learned something new!

Phone lines and internet is back up and running.

Good afternoon, our phone lines and internet access is currently down due to a possible car accident near the area. We will be open until 6:00pm if anyone needs to come into the facility for medication request/refills.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Our pets’ physical exams provide a lot of information on heart, lung, eye, and ear health, but what about what’s going on inside?

Performed at least once a year, blood work panels help us assess your pet’s overall health. Diagnostic labs give us an inside look at how your pet’s liver and kidneys are functioning and help track any changes in their health.

To schedule your pet’s wellness exam, contact us today!
