Going to the vet should be fun!Our goal is to reduce fear and anxiety in our patients from the time they leave their home to the time they return.
Here's how we can help:
Tranquilizers and sedatives are commonly used for uncomfortable procedures like ear cleaning, wound treatment, bandage changes, x-rays and blood tests. Once a pet has a painful or fear related visit, they usually do not forget.
Use of gentle comfortable restraint devices
Calming pheromones in the form of sprays are used on our hands and arms, on tables and bedding, and any area the pet is exposed to
Soft fuzzy blankets to cover pets and to give them a sense of security
Our staff is trained with the skills of handling nervous stressed pets. How we approach them, how we pick them up, and how we hold them are critical steps in establishing a fear free visit.
Treats and goodies. Pets are treat driven. We tap into that with pup cups of whip cream, peanut butter, along with a variety of pet goodies. Bring your own.
Our facility is designed to separate cat and dog patients as they arrive. We have separate exam rooms and kennels for our doggie and kitty friends. Goal here…keep the peace!
