*Purchase of prescription parasite control requires a current exam, within the past 12 months, at our clinic. To purchase heartworm preventive the pet must have a current heartworm test (at our clinic) and be current on their monthly preventive (purchased from this clinic).
Bringing your pet to the Clinic
New places, people and animals can be stressful for any pet, including pets that otherwise seem calm and friendly. For this reason we require that all pets are kept in a secure carrier (cats and small dogs) or on a short, non-retractable, leash (dogs only), with an appropriately fit collar, (that they’re unable to back out of), while on the Clinic premises. This includes while they are waiting inside your vehicle.
Thank you for your support in keeping all pets safe while visiting the Clinic.
