Everything your pet needs, under one roof
Preventive care is where we start, because it's the basis of good veterinary care. When your pet is sick or hurt, we want to be your "easy button".
Keeping them well
- Wellness examsOnce a year, or twice a year for senior pets.
- VaccinationsCore vaccines for every puppy, kitten, dog and cat, plus the ones their lifestyle calls for. We use Elanco vaccines.
- Parasite preventionFleas, ticks, heartworm and intestinal worms, all year round. Prevention is easy and affordable; treatment isn't.
- Nutrition counselingHill's Science Diet, prescription and regular. If you bought it from us and you're not satisfied, bring it back for a full refund.
When they're sick or hurt
- MedicineFrom dermatology to internal medicine, nose to tail.
- SurgeryOur own surgical suite with traditional and electrosurgery and full monitoring. For complex cases, board-certified surgeons work with us.
- DentistryDental care and oral surgery, with digital dental x-rays.
- Digital x-rayFull-body and dental, with results in seconds. CT scans through a partner clinic.
- In-house labBlood work, microscope exams and parasite tests on site, with partner labs for the rest.
- PharmacyA full-service pharmacy, so your pet gets their medication quickly, and custom-compounded medicine through partner pharmacies. Call us for a refill.
While you're away
- Boarding and doggie daycareFor a day while you're at work, or a long stay while you travel. What a stay includes

And then there's Mojo
Mojo belonged to a soldier who served with Dr. Z. After the soldier's death, Mojo was ordered to be euthanized. Dr. Z "forgot" to do it for about three years, while Mojo served as the hospital mascot at Fort Campbell, Kentucky. After Dr. Z retired, Mojo adopted Veronica as his mom and lived happily ever after.
Boarding, with a 10,000 sq ft yard
