Vaccinations: Pets today can live longer, healthier lives than ever before-in part because of vaccines that help protect them from deadly infectious diseases. Over the years, vaccines have saved millions of pets and virtually eliminated some fatal diseases that were once common. Unfortunately, many infectious diseases still pose a significant threat to dogs and cats that are unvaccinated.
Do you have a new puppy or kitten? Congratulations on this addition to your family! One of the first things you should do when you bring your new pet home is to introduce him or her to us - your veterinary care team. Puppy and kitten visits offer a unique opportunity to get you and your new pet off on the right foot!
From pre-anesthetic (pre-surgery) blood work, General Health Profile, Screenings for specific disease or Cytology of the skin or ears - the Deerfoot Animal Clinic patient care team of veterinarians and technicians are able to perform the tests needed to detect and identify the source of the symptoms within minutes.
Fleas and ticks are a minor issue IF they are addressed immediately. These pests can kill your dog if you allow them to reach infestation level. Fleas and ticks spread disease, cause allergic reactions, and act as vectors in the spread of blood and intestinal parasites. Heartworms in dogs are easy to prevent, but difficult and costly to cure.

Love these folks. I've trusted them with several of my babies and continue coming here even after moving 45 minutes away. I've worked in very clinics and hospitals for 15 years and these folks are great.

The doctors here are knowledgeable and VERY caring. Bedside manner is a 10/10. I can't thank Dr Metcalf enough. I brought my dog in after she ate a house plant and they were impeccable in treating her. Again, 10/10 because 5 stars is not enough.

Always a positive experience at Deerfoot Animal Clinic. Had Scout's nails done. In and out in 10 minutes. Staff is so friendly and caring for our pets. Boarding him there soon and I know he'll be well taken care of. He's skittish around people, but takes to them like family. So did our other boys. Highly recommended.

Have taken my dog here on 2 occasions. Once for an ear infection and shots, second for getting fixed and kenneled for for a week. Been very happy with the staff and the short wait times. I can't argue about the cost either, very affordable. Well worth paying them a visit.

So stumbled upon Deerfoot having moved to a Trussville from Kauai. We had an amazing vet experience while on Kauai and we were nervous no one would live up to them due to the fact that we had three rather finicky rescues that HATE the vet.
Deerfoot has lived up to the high expectations we had and continued to follow through in the three years we have been taking our dogs there. When we adopted our fourth, Dupree, from a rescue home in Alabama, we had no clue we would be getting a defective dog( JK...LOL)!
Dupree is allergic to everything under the son and had every issue imaginable. Worms, skin
