Hi. My name is Archie, but they call me Murder mittens!

My favorite activity is playing with toys and eating, and the weirdest thing I do is playing in his drinking fountain.

🌟 Grateful for Amazing Clients Like You! 🌟

We’re so touched by this wonderful review from one of our amazing clients! 💕

Here's what they had to say:

"We really like Dr. Amanda and the vet techs at Russell Lake Veterinary Hospital. They are always so patient with my nervous, anxious and reactive dog, Charlot. I also appreciate never being unnecessarily upsold on products or services so I feel like I'm getting good value at the clinic. The reception team has been great at submitting my claims to my insurance on my behalf which is very helpful! Thank you!" - Alina R

Thank you for trusting us with Charlot’s care! 🐾 Helping pets feel safe and providing honest, compassionate care is what we strive for every day. 💙

We love hearing how our reception team, techs, and veterinarians make a difference—your kind words mean so much to us! 😊

🐾 Need Urgent Care? We’re Here for You! 🐾

At Russell Lake Vet, we know that pets are family, and we treat them with the care they deserve. 💙

When Charmaine's dog, Chubbs, needed urgent attention, we were able to fit him in and get him back home with the treatment he needed. Here is what she had to say about the visit:

"I called Russell Lake Vet on Saturday at noon, worried because my dog Chubb’s ears had gotten worse overnight. They asked the reason for my call, put me on hold briefly, and then told me they could fit us in at 3:00 pm. By 3:30, Chubbs had received antibiotics, and we were already on our way home. Highly recommend them—great staff and very accommodating!" -Charmaine C

“Your other family doctor” is here to make sure your pet gets the care they need, when they need it.

Thank you, Charmaine, for trusting us with Chubbs care and sharing a photo of Chubbs at home! ⭐️

📞 If your furry family member needs urgent care, give us a call. We’ll do our best to help!
