Pets are an important part of today's busy family. We know that between work, school, kids' sporting events and family time, getting to the veterinary hospital to pick up your pet supplies can be difficult. Vetsource is an extension of our in-house pharmacy, offering products you can trust at competitive prices.
One of the most common reasons for pets to "act old" isn't old age, it is pain from dental disease. 80% of cats over 5 years of age have at least one painful cavity near (or under) the gum line. Your dog or cat can't tell you when they're in pain. Occasionally, there are signs such as odor, bleeding, or pawing at the face.
We perform many types of soft tissue surgeries at our clinic. Soft tissue surgeries are those that are not associated with bone. These surgeries can provide many benefits to pets. Probably the most common soft tissue surgery performed on pets besides routine spays and neuters, are the removal of masses or lumps.

This place was amazing!! The staff were extremely friendly and knowledgable and made us feel so comfortable. Our beautiful Nala had just had puppies and we brought her and the puppies in for a check up after delivery to make sure everything was okay. The pricing was very reasonable for labs and radiology. Very clean and so friendly! So thankful for their expertise❤️Thank you!! Everyone is doing great!

I would give Abilene Animal Hospital 10 stars if I could.
We JUST left and I came here to write a review right away. We were (are) traveling from South Florida to Colorado and about 5 miles before reaching Abilene one of our two cats had a major accident. I found Abilene out of sheer luck when we pulled off the highway and headed there in the hope that they could help...
Staff took us in right away and were so sweet. They bathed our stinky dude and even cleaned out his carrier, lined it with a potty pad and fresh towel, and sprayed Feliway in both our cat carriers to keep them calm--they even

I've taken my dog to this clinic for 11 years and I have nothing but nice things to say. All the vets have been knowledgeable, kind and gentle. I'm recently retired and on a fixed income. They have been extremely helpful about how to maintain care for my pet within my circumstances. They have my unreserved recommendation.
