Due to the events of the F3 tornado that hit the Valley View & Sanger, TX area, the Animal Hospital on Milam Road's wonderful staff has gone out into the community & rescued many fur babies and brought them back into the clinic for shelter and care.

There are many pups that they have under their care as well as that have needed treatment. One of their lovely guests is named Willow & was found on the side of the road by a wonderful human & she has a broken leg & pelvis that needs an important extensive surgery! Funds will go towards Willow's surgery, vaccinations, medications, & other treated injuries! They also have some pups that have found their owners but will be staying at the clinic at no cost due to their homes being destroyed or them being hospitalized themselves that funds will go towards.

We would love your help in raising money! These sweet babies have been through so much trauma already & we appreciate absolutely everything that this community has already done to help them! If you feel led to donate to the cause, please use this link: https://www.gofundme.com/f/aid-for-tornadoaffected-dogs-in-sanger

Last week, in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, Destination Pet’s field leaders participated in QPR Gatekeeper training and certification with none other than the incredible Dr. Mia Cary. QPR stands for “Question, Persuade, Refer” and is a data-driven and conversation-based way of supporting folks who are experiencing su***de ideation.

In our commitment to being the provider of choice for pets and those who care for them (feel free to tweak), we believe that workplace wellbeing starts with ensuring our leaders have the training and resources to create cultures and practices of wellbeing in their pet and vet care centers.

We know it can be scary to board your fur baby. But don't worry - your pet's safety while they board with us is our top priority! We have a number of policies, procedures, and add-ons available to help protect your pet.

Our safety standards and procedures have been developed in partnership with veterinarians in the Yourgi network. We follow strict cleaning protocols and use the same disinfectant that NASA uses to keep our facility as clean as possible. Vaccinations are required to board with us - call us or visit our website to learn more. And last but not least, we offer two great safety-focused add-ons: "Peace of Mind" & "Peace of Mind+". Peace of Mind provides reimbursement of any veterinary costs up to $500 per visit/$1,000 per year in eligible veterinary expenses for illnesses or injuries that occur due to their visit with us. Peace of Mind+ includes our Peace of Mind coverage plus fun extras to make your pet's stay safe AND fun.

Contact us if you have any questions about boarding safety for your furry friend.
