Where family pets find loving care
Thank you for your continued patience and understanding with our team! Like most veterinary hospitals, we are booking farther out than normal while also trying to maintain the quality of care that our staff, clients & pets deserve. We know this is not ideal and want to address the questions and concerns surrounding the busyness of the veterinary industry.
- The pet-to-vet ratio was (and continues to be) significantly unbalanced, which hinders the ability to source, recruit and hire newly graduated veterinarians.
- The demand for veterinary services increased significantly due to the explosion of pet adoptions (+200%) in the past few years. Sadly, only about 1,500 veterinarians are graduating each year in the United States. This leaves us incredibly short-handed as an industry across the nation.
- Our team has implemented many new features to improve the client experience.

Dental CareDespite what many pet owners may believe, “dog breath” is not just a nuisance – it’s a sign of an unhealthy mouth. Bad breath is caused by bacteria. Over time, bacteria leads to plaque and tartar buildup on your pet’s teeth. The result is bad breath, reddened gums, and other common signs of dental disease.
Parasite Prevention and ControlThere was a time when parasites like fleas, ticks, and roundworms were considered mostly a nuisance. Now, however, we know that parasites can cause serious illness and even death in pets. For example, ticks can transmit infections like Lyme disease, and fleas can transmit tapeworms and Bartonella – the bacteria that causes “cat-scratch fever” in

Cannot recommend this Vetrinary hospital highly enough! I have a 5 year old shepherd-heeler mix I adopted when she was 1 and incredibly fearful of people. She has not only had a tough time adjusting to new people but has had some poor vet experiences across the places we have moved. This vet hospital was so accommodating for her anxiousness and meeting her where she was at when we first moved here two years ago - even to the point of giving some vaccines in our vehicle so she didn’t need to go inside. But yesterday, she required a procedure that needed sedation. The staff went above and beyond to keep her comfortable, accommodate her needs, and successfully accomplish everything that needed to be done. Because of my doggo’s poor vet experiences in the past, anticipating our vet visits often give me just as much anxiety as she probably has, but our experiences here have truly placed my dog mom heart at ease! Dr. Morrow and now Dr. Boone, and their staff, have been amazing to work with!Samantha Peterson
