Been going here for years for medical care, getting our dogs fixed, grooming and boarding. Very pleased with reasonable rates and excellent care and service. Update 3/2026 - We had to put down our wonderful Bouvier des Flanders due to crippled, blind, unable to walk, tumor and in so much pain. The staff got a stretcher to bring the 70 pound dog in and treated my wife and I with such care and compassion, especially Chris and his assistant for today Hannah. They got the dog relaxed, brought in favorite doggie snacks for a last meal and went all out to give our Bouvier des Flanders a painless loving departure surrounded by her doggy Mommy and Daddy holding her. Thank you… read full review

Take both our tiny maltipoo and our giant Bouvier des Flanders here for shots, care, neutering, grooming, boarding and very pleased with the care and service. Updated 2026 - my 14 year old Bouvier needed to be euthanized and employees Chris and Hannah were so attentive to our needs and our grief and everything was handled beautifully, painlessly and we got to be with our precious dog during her departure.
