Services
Acupuncture
Acupuncture stimulates the central nervous system to release chemicals that enhance natural healing. We use this therapy to treat chronic pain, behavior issues, and neurological disorders as a complement to conventional treatments. Our trained practitioners ensure safe, minimally invasive sessions with minimal discomfort for pets.
Grooming
Our full-service grooming includes bathing, clipping, nail trimming, and ear cleaning using premium products like Les Poochs shampoos. We require up-to-date vaccination records and provide a relaxing environment with aromatherapy. Specialized services include de-matting, medicated baths, and breed-specific styling for dogs and cats.
Laser Therapy
The Companion Duo Class IV laser system reduces pain and inflammation while accelerating healing. This dual-function therapy treats conditions like arthritis and mast cell tumors with species-specific protocols. High-power output allows deep tissue penetration, and real-time feedback ensures optimal dosing for canine, feline, and exotic patients.
Puppy Packages
Our comprehensive puppy wellness package includes exams, vaccinations, fecal testing, and preventive treatments for heartworm and fleas. Priced at $250 (a $450 value), it covers three visits during the first six months. Package includes DHPP vaccines, rabies, and three pedicures for puppies under five months.
Vaccinations
We offer core and elective vaccinations for dogs and cats, including rabies, DHPP, FVRCP, and Lyme vaccines. Titer testing determines immunity levels to avoid unnecessary boosters. Our protocols follow legal requirements and lifestyle-based risk assessments, with specialized schedules for puppies, kittens, and senior pets.
