Knoxville Veterinary Clinic: started as a partnership of three veterinarians in the 1960s. The clinic had a small office on the Knoxville town square. The practice was very livestock-oriented at that time, and the veterinarians drove cars loaded with medical equipment and supplies to area farms to care for local livestock.

our veterinarians. By this time, the doctors went on calls in pickup trucks with special boxes on the back to hold hot water and vet supplies. A main office was built on the south edge of Knoxville on Hwy 24. Small animal exam and surgery rooms were built, and an extensive cattle-processing facility was built in and outside the office. A satellite office was opened in Pleasantville. In 1991, Doctors Mark Poell and Robert Conway left the practice. Dr. Craig Burk, the junior partner, became the sole owner and operated the practice with two associate doctors. Dr. Burk sold the large animal portion of the practice in 1994 to an associate and turned the Knoxville Veterinary Clinic into a strictly small animal practice. Dr. Maggie (Aleff) Wilson joined the practice in May 2009 when she graduated from the Iowa State College of Veterinary Medicine. In March of 2018, Dr. Wilson and her husband Jeff had the opportunity to move back to Knoxville and purchased the Knoxville Veterinary Clinic from her former mentor, Dr. Craig Burk. They were overjoyed at the opportunity to return to Knoxville with their two children, Collin, and Courtney. In June of 2019, Dr. Stephanie Deneke joined the practice adding 15 years of experience to the team. Both Dr. Deneke and Dr. Wilson strive every day to give their best to our clients and patients. Thank you for trusting us with your beloved pet!

Did you know that interacting with animals has positive effects on your mental health? Studies show that it decreases levels of cortisol – a stress hormone – and lowers blood pressure in our bodies. Animals have also been linked to reducing loneliness, increasing feelings of social support, and boosts in mood! They aren’t just adorable, but healthy for us too! Give your furry family members the tender loving care they need by scheduling a health checkup with us. Give us a call at 641-842-3316.

Approximately 30% of Dalmatians are deaf in one ear and 5% are deaf in both. This is caused by something known as the extreme piebald gene, which is responsible for their white coats and blue eyes! Although, it is said that dalmatians with larger dark spots are less likely to be deaf - the more you know! Let's build a happy and healthy home for your pets together! Contact us at 641-842-3316.

This is our last group Beginner Dog Obedience session of 2024. A small group of (4) dogs and their owners with all different situations; one six month old pup, one lively pup with a recent knee injury, one newly rehomed adult dog, and one dog reviewing and refining his skills. Despite the differences, it all came together at the end. Each dog and owner team celebrated their own individual improvement. I am so proud of them! The October graduates are pictured here from left to right are: Dean and Linda Hicks with “Sissy”, Sally Rodda and “Lucky”, Lois Reichert with “Nala”, and Lisa Curnes and Scott Barker with “Cheech”. Congratulations! Photo submitted by Donna Flatttery, CPDT/KA

Contrary to popular belief, chihuahuas need regular exercise to remain fit and healthy. Despite their small stature, their breed is full of energy, but they are actually prone to obesity. They don’t need as much physical activity as a larger breed; however, 30 minutes a day of walking or playing is a great way to keep your chihuahua healthy and bond with you!
