Located at 569 Portland Street Unit 140 in Penhorn Plaza, Penhorn Animal Hospital So what exactly is urgent care? That's where we come in!
(1)

Urgent care is provided for illness or injuries which require prompt, same day attention but are not necessarily of a life or death nature. Covid -19 created a steep increase in pet ownership - this, combined with a worldwide shortage of veterinarians and support staff, has illustrated a concerning gap in urgent available veterinary care. Many hospitals have full appointments providing daily preve

ntive care ( vaccines, wellness exams, dietary consults, and all of the things that go into keeping your pet happy and healthy) and accessing an urgent visit can be a challenge. At Penhorn Animal Hospital, we work with your family veterinary team to ensure that your pet receives fast, same day appointments for conditions that just can't wait. We are excited to launch this next step in excellent veterinary service!

What are your plans for today? Penhorn Animal Hospital will be set up at the GPAC Doggie Expo in the Greenfoot Energy Centre in Bedford - this dog friendly event is always lots of fun so pack up your pooch and come on down!

We had a bit of a reunion a few days ago! RVT Peyton first met Agnes at another veterinary clinic, and when Agnes came to Penhorn Animal Hospital they were able to say hello once again! Clearly Agnes appreciated seeing a familiar friendly face ❤️

Harry Potter (chair) and Ron Weasley came to see Dr Marryatt for vaccines and a wellness exam.

At Penhorn Animal Hospital, we always try our best to put pets ( and their people) at ease during a visit. That can mean different things for different patients; it might be as simple as a few treats or gentle rubs, or it might be low lighting, starting the exam in the waiting room, or keeping things as hands free as possible. All animals are different and we try to adjust to their needs.

Both Harry and Ron did great! It was a very low stress visit and as you can see, they were pretty relaxed 😊 A great start to a long and happy relationship!

Meet Dr Patrick Boelsterli! Dr Boelsterli is usually at Penhorn Animal Hospital on Mondays, and although he concentrates on seeing urgent care cases he occasionally sees preventative care patients as well. Little Claire came in for vaccines, a wellness exam and of course...tummy rubs! 😊

Lovins makes everything better! Sweet little Miley had treats and kisses from RVT Peyton after vaccines with Dr Marryatt 😊 A few cuddles and all was forgiven!

When you don't have any fur, it's nice to have friends who will share!

Basil (ragdoll) and Gwen (sphinx) get cozy together by creating that *perfect* ambient temperature. They do say opposites attract!

Sweet Dolly came to Penhorn Animal Hospital to be spayed. There were no issues, but she came back the next day because she just was not herself - she was vomiting, not eating and just generally not feeling great. To help her feel better, we kept her in hospital for the day on IV fluids and antinauseant medications. And once back home she was soon feeling like her regular self! A very sweet patient ❤️

Happy birthday TO US!!! Penhorn Animal Hospital is three years old!

Three years ago we opened our doors and never looked back. Thank you for trusting us with your pets - whom we know are really your family ❤️ Through laughter, smiles, tears and goodbyes it has been our privilege to help you and all your furry friends. Looking forward to many more wagging tails, happy purrs and everything else that comes with a veterinary hospital like ours. One thing is certain...it's never boring!

Mocha came to see Dr. Bitar at Penhorn Animal Hospital with a laceration. Ouch! Sedation, repair and a little TLC while healing should take care of it ❤️
