General Info:
Does your pet need a routine wellness exam and vaccines? Is he vomiting, having diarrhea or just not right? Our doctors work together on our cases, after all three heads are better than one! If we don't have the answer, we are happy to refer you to one of the nearby specialty and referral centers. We feel that client communication is the key to understanding and maintaining your pet's health. Surgery / Dental Services - We regularly perform routine soft tissue surgeries and dental cleanings. Our dental cleanings are performed by the veterinarian or registered veterinary technician to ensure top quality care. We provide pre-anesthetic bloodwork and intravenous fluids to our patients while under anesthesia to improve recovery and allow for IV access in an emergency. Our patients are monitored by both a machine and a technician's eyes and ears. We have a professional groomer, Kelly and offer full service grooming as well as cleansing baths and nail trims Monday through Friday. We dremel the dogs' nails unless otherwise instructed to create a smooth rounded surface that is much more comfortable on your skin and apply conditioner after rinsing the shampoo to give your canine a smooth glossy look. If you are going out of town and need someone to watch over your special companion look no further. Our dogs at Hawthorne Hotel are walked regularly and are fed based on your instructions. We provide bedding, treats, toys and special attention as well as administer any medications your pet may need. A bonus by boarding with your veterinarian is that if your dog should need vaccines or develop any problems while boarding, trained veterinary staff are on hand to diagnose and treat right there on the spot.
