(1)

Dog Camp also includes grooming and both dog and cat boarding. Established in 2005 as an accredited animal hospital, we are locally owned and operated. We provide a high quality of medicine, fair prices and most importantly, deliver individualized care plans for you and your pet family. As medicine changes, so does our level of care for you. We invest in the latest technology that is proven to be

effective and recommend diagnostic tools to help us find answers to your pet's medical concerns. We work closely with board certified specialists who can address more complicated needs if your pet needs them. In addition, our pet boarding, day camp and grooming services allow us to be one place that meets all of your pets' needs. With a separate entrance for our Dog Camp services, your dogs become more comfortable and at home with each visit. The tree top cat condos are far from dog boarding and allow for a calm, serene stay when you go away. If we have not met you and your pets then we welcome you and are happy to answer any questions.

Today, we’re also taking a moment to celebrate the incredible doctors who make our hospital what it is - our veterinarians. They bring so much compassion, knowledge, and unwavering dedication to every patient they treat. From tiny kittens to senior pups, from wellness visits to emergencies, they give their all to ensure every pet receives the best possible care. Thank you Dr. Birthright, Dr. Justice, Dr. McKinnon, Dr. Gautille, Dr. Halapy, Dr. Plemmons, and Dr. Crawford! 🩺

Help us celebrate them in the comments! Share a thank you, a favorite memory, or a photo of your pet they’ve helped along the way! 🐾

Our Story

Dr. Birthright and his team provide 20 years veterinary experience in a beautiful hospital. Graduating from Auburn University School of Veterinary Medicine in 1993, Dr. Birthright came to the mountains that felt like home to him after spending many summers as a child kayaking, hiking, camping and forging life long friendships at Camp Mondamin. He and his wife built the hospital in 2005 with the mission of creating a space that felt like home and providing compassionate care with high medical standards. We are proud to have been

members of the American Animal Hopsital Association (AAHA) since the year we opened. The AAHA standards address patient care and pain management, surgery, pharmacy, laboratory, exam facilities, medical records, cleanliness, emergency services, dental care, diagnostic imaging, anesthesiology, and continuing education. To maintain accredited status, hospitals undergo comprehensive on-site evaluations every three years. Only 12-15% of veterinary hospitals in the United States and Canada are accredited by AAHA. Unlike human hospitals, not all animal hospitals are required to be accredited.

After years hearing requests from clients for boarding facilities we were looking for a way to serve our clients beyond just an overnight stay. The dog camp idea grew out of an inspiration from years at summer camp learning new things and the desire to provide a service to pet owners where they could feel good about their dogs getting stimulation and socialization. In 2012 we built the Dog Camp and created a separate entrance so that the high traffic from day camp, grooming and boarding didn’t interfere with the hospital patient needs.

As you continue to refer friends and family to us we continue to grow. We are thrilled to have Dr. Rachelle McKinnon and Dr. Toria McHarg working with our team. In 2020 we are growing our services in an effort to support the needs our pet family as well as the educational aspirations of our team. Stay tuned for exciting new services we will offer you and your pets!
