Tuesday morning update:
HSAH is open today. We are running on generator power solely. Thanks to Clark Gas and Oil for topping us off so that it could continue to run and to T Webb for checking it on Saturday to make sure it would stay running.
The phones are working, but we can't call across state lines.
The internet is still down so we can't process on line orders or take credit cards.
All in all, we are functioning and truly thankful for all first responders, public works folks, utility folks and others that are working so hard to get us all back to normal.
All dogs in our care are safe and comfortable. We are hauling drinking warmer for our patients since Galax is on a boil water notice.

Good Monday morning. The clinic is still without power, water, phone service and internet. Please don't try to call us on a landline. You can try a cell phone at 276.233. 3241, but keep in mind cell service has been spotty.
We are open today. We will see appointments and do surgery.
Cash or check only!!!! NO credit cards.
We can NOT process on line/internet pharmacies prescriptions, answer emails or answer any petdesk request. Please refrain from relying on technology at this time. If you need meds refilled come to the clinic and we will fill those meds in house.

Again all board animals are well cared for and safe.

Thank you
