Our Approach

Preparing Your Dog for a Visit

Exercise first (lightly): A short walk or play session helps your dog relax. Avoid strenuous activity that could make them tired or sore.
Bring favorite comforts: A blanket, toy, or even a worn t-shirt with your scent can help reduce anxiety.
Plan meals wisely: Unless instructed otherwise, a slightly lighter meal before the visit can make treats more motivating during the appointment.

Use a secure leash or carrier: Safety first—make sure your dog is comfortable but secure.
Stay calm yourself: Dogs pick up on our emotions. Keep your own voice and body language relaxed.

Check in smoothly: Our team will guide you through a Fear Free process from the moment you arrive.
Use treats and praise: Bring your dog’s favorite treats—or let us know so we can use ours—to reward calm behavior.

What to Expect
at Your Visit

Your pet’s experience matters as much as their treatment. Here’s how we make visits better:

Soft colors, quiet spaces, and a friendly hello help set the tone from the moment you arrive.

We never rush; pets are given space and time to feel comfortable before exams begin.

Our team uses low-stress techniques, avoiding unnecessary restraint whenever possible.

Each appointment is tailored to your pet’s medical needs and their unique personality.
