Founded in 1979, Forney Animal Hospital
has provided veterinary services to the
Forney Community for over 30 years. Since
the partnership of Lucille Nix, DVM and
Jeffery Pruitt, DVM gained ownership in
2007, Forney Animal Hospital has strived for
excellence in the service of veterinary
medicine. Dr. Nix also stays active in the
Forney Community, allowing student
volunteers to observe the practice.
She is a
member of the Animal Shelter Community
and was happy to host the Pet Palooza in
2011. Dr. Nix is a member of the Chamber of
Commerce and supports the community
with property taxes. As the City of Forney
has grown and prospered, Forney Animal
Hospital has grown as well, allowing the
practice to accommodate patients in a more
timely manner. In July 2009, Forney Animal
Hospital held the grand opening of a stateof-
the-art 8,000 sq ft facility.
“The exchange of ownership and our new
facility has only helped us to continue to love
and care for our patients, as well strengthen
and build new relationships with our clients.”

Playtime is one of Cheeks' favorite activities. Whether it's a game of fetch, a romp in the yard, or a playful wrestling match with his favorite squeaky toy, Cheeks is always up for some fun. But after a good play session, he loves nothing more than curling up for a cozy nap or snuggling with his human friends. His sweet and loving nature makes him an excellent cuddle buddy.
If you're looking for a happy, loving, and loyal companion who’s full of life, Cheeks is the perfect match for you! Bring this playful pup into your home and heart today.
Like all pets from the SPCA of Texas, Cheeks has been neutered, microchipped and is up to date on all his vaccinations. He is at the Dallas Animal Care Center, so you come by any day of the week between Noon and 6 p.m. to meet him.

With heat waves sweeping across the country, blue-green algae is appearing in new areas and posing an increased risk to pets.
Found in lakes, ponds or any source of standing water, it’s extremely toxic and consuming it can be fatal. The best way to prevent accidental poisoning is to keep a close eye on pets when they’re around water.
If you think your pet has been exposed, take them to the nearest emergency veterinary hospital and contact the ASPCA Poison Control at 888-426-4435.

If the pavement is too hot for you, it's too hot for them. Make sure to be aware of the dangers hot pavement can have on your pet's paws.

Tornadoes form during intense thunderstorms and can reach wind speeds of 200+ mph. Although tornadoes can occur anywhere, they are prevalent in the Southeast and Midwest. Stay informed by downloading the FEMA app and signing up for weather reports and evacuation notices.
Keep a list handy of pet-friendly shelters and contact information for your local animal control office and ASPCA Poison Control (888-426-4435) in case of evacuation.

July is Lost Pet Prevention Month! Shelters and rescues have an influx of stray pets enter their facilities in July, many of whom have run off during fireworks or storms. Ensure your pet is reunited with you, with a microchip. Unlike collars, this is a permanent identification that cannot fall off of your pet. It is important to keep your contact information up to date with your microchip company. Call us today at 715-848-5326 today for more information!
