The lush green lawn, colorful flowers, and sign appointments. Another eye catching feature is a wooden cat perched on the mailbox surrounded by flowering shrubs and border plants. There is even a strategically placed fire hydrant for some quick relief for those anxious canines.

With a well illuminated parking lot the entrance and exit from the hospital are not difficult to see in the day or night. As you enter the foyer, a decision can be made to enter the separate cat waiting area or the opposite door to the room especially decorated for dogs. The open area divided by a five foot high cedar wall has vaulted cedar ceilings, skylights, cushioned seating and a brass fan slow spinning it's breeze throughout the room.

The smiling face of one of two receptionists will greet you as soon as you enter the room. The counters are large and open for easy communication. Our fully computerized office minimizes your waiting time. Once you are personally guided into one of three examination rooms you can rest with your pet and family on cushioned seating. The warm colors and oak cabinets give you a feeling of home. As the receptionist exits the room she starts a timer that reminds us how long you have been in the room to keep your waiting time to a minimum.

The examination and explanations of the findings for your pet generally take approximately thirty minutes. The time enables the doctors to fully explain the examination findings and answer all of your questions without being rushed. In fact we are insistent on good communication so we have a resting stool for the doctor so everyone in the room can be relaxed. Once the visit is over you are only a few steps away from checking out with all information already on the computer and medication and supplies ready for you to take home. The exit door quickly opens and you are back into the parking lot.

A well equipped pharmacy is directly behind the examination rooms. This area is where all the commonly used medications are stored and prepared for your pet's health. An adjacent laboratory with state of the art equipment can handle most emergencies and laboratory blood analysis. The microscope is equipped with a camera and viewing screen so that you can see what we see under the microscope.

The treatment area is a large multi-function room where most of the hospital medical duties are performed. The large treatment area is equipped with an electric lift table for large dogs, anesthesia monitoring equipment, dental equipment, and intensive care areas. Adjacent to this room is a sterile modern surgical suite with emergency lighting and three different types of patient monitoring equipment. Many pet owners tell us that our surgery room is nicer than many human hospitals. Also adjacent to the treatment room is the radiology department with X-ray equipment and automatic processing so that results of your pets x-rays can be reported promptly. Our commitment to excellence shows again by offering only the best for our patients.

The medical wards house all of our patients that do not need intensive care. This room is divided into areas for large and small dogs. With tiled walls and floors, separate heating and cooling, and ceiling fans, this room is not only attractive but very clean.

The lodging center is our special home away from home for your pets. All areas for dogs and cats can be visualized through glass windows. The large play area for cats with a carpeted climbing tree is the focal point of the room. Cats love looking out the picture window in their play area or just lounging around on the cat tree. The large exercise areas for dogs are beneath wooden ceilings, brass fans, and skylights. Personalized hand walking of the dogs in the fenced in play area is a nice outing but they are excited about getting back into their heated and air conditioned rest areas.

With many special services offered to all pets, this home away from home is truly a vacation for all the family.
