A message from Dr. Henkle.

I am very excited to let everyone know that I will be joining Seatown Veterinary Care, starting on July 20th. I am grateful to everyone at Phinney Ridge Animal Hospital for 23 wonderful years, and to all of the amazing people and animals who have been with us through those years. I will be joining a team of outstanding people who work together to provide exceptional, personalized care to their clients and their pets. I look forward to hopefully seeing many of you again there.

Thank you for continuing to be patient with us as we forward records, and with the reception staff where you are transferring to. Things continue to be hectic everywhere and our closing has created a large number of people needing to set up appointments at the same time.

We want to extended a heart felt thank you to all of the people who reached out to us in the final weeks to say goodbye and tell us that we would be missed. The outpouring of cards and gifts were amazing and we can’t begin to tell you how much it meant to us. The food and drink brought much joy during a difficult time. We were so fortunate to have had such amazing people trust us with their pets through the years. You will all be missed.

News of Dr. Henkle’s new position will be coming soon!

03/08/2022

Dear Friends and neighbors,

It is with great regret that we must announce the closure of Phinney Ridge Animal Hospital after 37
years serving the greater Greenwood area. Lack of available staffing, due to the pandemic, has made
operation of the clinic untenable. It has been a great joy and honor to provide care for the pets in our
community, and to be part of the lives of so many amazing people through the years. We will miss you
all.

Our Last appointments will be May 20th and our last day will be May 27th, 2022. We are committed to
transferring your pet’s care as smoothly as possible. If you choose a new facility before we close, please
call so records may be transferred. Also, if you need routine refills, please request them, but please
make arrangements to transfer care as soon as possible so you don’t run out during the transition. Dr.
Henkle will be selecting a position at a different facility: for updates please watch our page.
After May 27th, the clinic voice mail and email will be monitored regularly for requests for transfer of
records.

We wish you and your pets all the best in the years to come.

With Appreciation,

Debra Scheuerman, DVM, Owner

Cynthia Henkle, DVM, Associate
Jennifer Bolton, Manager
Jessica Ancheta, Receptionist
Amelia Lathrop, Assistant

High maintenance cat seeks care giver to love and hug!


This torti point, blue eyed, beauty is Rose. She is 9 years old and has diabetes. Rose is seeking a quiet, indoor only home with someone who has experience with, or is willing to learn about, diabetes in cats. She gets insulin injections twice a day and is a model patient. It is suspected that she may have a beef allergy and she occasionally gets (non-contagious) sniffles due to a severe respiratory infection a few years ago at Tacoma Humane Society.
Rose really likes to be held and gives the best kitty hugs ever. She is a petite, gentle soul who will win your heart in minutes.
If you would like to meet her ask the front desk. She will be staying with us until the end of June.

It's that time of year again...

When it comes to risks to our dogs' health, the culprits are literally all around us. While a nice walk is quality time for both and dog and owner, it can be fraught with potential danger. One such hazard is the lowly grass awn, which has the potential to be deadly. Read more.

Today, we are open because your pets need care and are blissfully oblivious to all that is going on in the world.

If we were a coffee shop, we would be closed.

Our hearts and minds are with the hundreds of thousands of people demonstrating peacefully all over the world.

Hope.

Since then, I've seen dogs and goats suffering similar foxtail trauma. To avoid serious and urgent surgery to remove foxtails that migrate inside the body through the abdominal wall, up the nose, or into the bladder, it is important to always check all animals for any foxtails on their body or in th...

Thank you to everyone who has called to check on us. We are very fortunate to not have any damage following this morning's gas explosion. There was just one cat in the hospital (who is looking for a home by the way) and he seems fine. We are open but Greenwood is closed from 83rd to 87th and parking is very limited due to emergency vehicles.

When it comes to pets, most of us would like to think we're quite in tune with our furry loved ones. But how do we really know how they're feeling, and can we tell when they're not having a great time? Thankfully, a new study has revealed the 25 definitive signs that show if your beloved…
