With this cold, wet weather, make sure your pets stay warm and safe. Double check at night to make sure everyone is inside for the evening before going to bed. Also keep a towel near the door to help them dry off from the cold, wet rain. Stay safe everyone!

Happy New Year everyone! Just a reminder to ensure your pets have collars with contact information on them in case they get scared from fireworks and take off. Ensure any microchip information is also up to date in case the anxious pets escape. Everyone be safe and have a great evening!

We will be closed tomorrow on New Years Day but resume normal hours on Thursday.

These two sweet dogs were found on Overlook parkway across from Specht elementary off 281. If anyone knows who their family is, call us and we can pass on the contact information. Please share this so we can find their families. They are very gentle and well manicured. Definitely not random strays. Thank you and Happy Halloween!

Hello everyone! This sweet boy was found looking a little rough around the edges. The person who found him is unable to keep him and is looking for a forever home. He does not have a chip. He is very loving and super cute. Two of these pictures are before he was groomed and two are after. Please give us a call if you know whose dog this is or if you’re interested in adding him to your family. Thank you!

UPDATE: THEY HAVE BEEN PICKED UP BY THEIR OWNERS!

Is anyone missing these sweet girls? They were seen coming from the copper canyon subdivision entrance and ended up at our door. No microchip or collar. We currently have them in our kennel with some food and water so they wouldn’t run into 281. Call us at

830-438-7200

If you know who the sweet girls belongs to please call.
