Helpful tips for our clients!

Our staff works to return your calls as soon as possible among many other responsibilities. Non-emergency calls may not be returned the same day. Our veterinarians see pets in the office and go out on the road for large animals. Sometimes our techs need to wait until the veterinarian who saw your pet is in the office to go over messages and then will be able to return your call. If not able to reach you directly by phone they will leave you a voicemail. The best way to get the information you need is to listen to that voicemail before calling the office. If afterward you still have questions please feel free to call back in, but listening to your message before that often saves not only us but you time! No need to wait on hold if not necessary!

So, before you quickly call back when you see a missed call from our office, please take a few minutes to check your voicemail first. We appreciate our client's time and want to make sure we are providing the best care we can!

Are you taking your dog with you to Canada? Please read on for some important information regarding your pup's travel plans:

After August 1, 2024, the requirements for return travel back into the United States from Canada will change. As of now, the requirements to go to Canada remain the same-a valid rabies certificate. The CDC has made these new restrictions in an effort to prevent the importation of the dog rabies strain. Currently, while the US has wildlife strains of the rabies virus, we are considered free of the dog strain.

The CDC has a program called DogBot where you can enter your dog's information to verify the requirements needed. If you do not meet the requirements when trying to return to the United States, your dog will not be allowed to return at that time! DogBot will help you navigate what your dog may need.

In general, it appears that dogs need to be older than 6 months old, microchipped prior to rabies vaccination, have a CDC Import Form and a Certification of US Rabies Vaccination which has been endorsed by the USDA prior to leaving. The CDC Import Form will be available after July 15th. It requires photographs and should be filled out 2 to 10 days prior to coming back into the US. If the dog does not have a microchip, one can be placed and the dog revaccinated for rabies. However, this vaccination will be only good for one year and needs to be done 28 days prior to travel.

As of now, we are uncertain as to the time frame for the return of the Rabies Certification form so please plan well in advance. Alternative arrangements for your pet such as boarding may need to be considered as this is a very confusing new change.

Here is Georgie reminding us why we probably should not have a clinic cat! We would never get any work done😆 Georgie is the newest member of our receptionist Sarah's family. He was found on his own in very bad shape and the amazing staff here saved him! He is now back to being a wild, sassy kitten who just learned how to Houdini out of his enclosure and loves to chase kids feet and pick fights with the much bigger dog!
