Many dog owners admire the unique looks and personalities of purebreds, but also worry about the fate of millions of pets euthanized each year. What many people don't realize is that there are specific breed rescue organizations for almost every breed of dog, placing dogs in need to new homes. If you're thinking of getting a pet fish, you should know that your veterinarian has a lot of good advice about pet ownership.
Veterinary care is crucial and effective for a wide variety of conditions. The following is a partial list of some of the most common. If you do not see your pet's specific condition listed, we encourage you to give us a call so we can personally address your particular concerns.

The most common type of arthritis is osteoarthritis which can be due to wear and tear on joints from over use, aging, injury, or from an unstable joint such as which occurs with a ruptured ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) in the knee.Leptospirosis is a serious, life-threatening disease caused by a spiral shaped bacteria.

My first visit was no entirely satisfactory and I did not think that I would come back. I had a reason to return within a week and this time my experience was entirely different. This visit Dr. Doak saw my pet, who was a four month old collie, and she was wonderful. She spent time with me and she listened attentively to my concerns and answered my questions. As a result of this experience I have recommended her to all my friends who have pets. She is the old fashioned school of vets and that is appreciated by pet owners. She is the closest to James Herriot, All Things Great and Small. I recommend

They were willing to see my sick kitten right away and Dr. Doak and staff gave life saving help. Both kitten and myself were treated very well. As our old vet retired this will be our new vet! Highly recommend this place.

As always, awesome Dr. Doak treated my Toby with TLC / as if he was her own fur-baby. The entire staff is kind and considerate, especially when it is time for your beloved pet to cross the rainbow bridge.

They are very rude and full of excuses when they mess up. Would not recommend taking your pet here if it’s on medication. They also can’t handle pets that hate the vet. Be warned before thinking of going there.

They were very helpful with the two dogs I had there. I really appreciated their kindness and empathy for the one dog that was having to be euthanized. Highly recommend.

My pup is my best friend and a member of our family. I have been taking him to Kirksville Small Animal Hospital for all his needs for 6 years. I feel he's in trusted care with the staff and they genuinely care for my best buddy. I recommend Kirksville Small Animal Hospital.

My fiancé and I took my puppy here for the first few months we had her. Before we took her here she was well mannered and not aggressive in the slightest. When we first started taking her here we noticed that the vet tech who came out to get her was cold and distant not only with us but especially with our dog. She would never pet her or try to comfort her she would just drag our dog inside. We decided to look past it. When the vet came out to talk to us she mentioned that our dog was a bit rowdy, however we thought that was normal as it was her first time in a strange place getting shots and
