Our tour concludes with our Dog & Cat Wards as well as our Bathing Room.  We hope you have enjoyed the tour.
 

Dog Ward & Cat Ward

We have five large dog runs and several large bottom cages.  We have 25-35 small/medium cages for our smaller babies.  Through the back door we have a fenced in walking area to minimize the chance of escape.  We have a separate Cat Ward (picture on the right).  We like to keep them separate from the dogs so that they are not stressed by the noise.  However, we sometimes do keep quiet dogs & puppies in the Cat Ward when necessary.  Both wards have natural glass block lighting (in addition to regular lighting) and music playing to keep them comfortable.

 

Bathing Room

This is where we do our baths and dips.  For those pets who board with us, we strongly recommend that they be given a bath on the day of dismissal.  The bath removes all kennel odor and any soiling caused by the pet soiling the kennel area.  

Many pets do not show evidence of fleas when admitted to the hospital, but in fact do have flea eggs on the skin which are not seen.  The flea may then hatch out in a few days.  Kennels are often accused of “infesting” the pet.  This is almost impossible in our dog and cat wards because all pets are kept in individual stainless steel kennels and never exposed to another pet.  The bath will also help to assure that your pet is “flea-free” when he/she leaves the hospital, as well as preserve our good reputation.
