Four Paws Animal Hospital is proud to be among the 12-15% of all practices in the United States that has earned the "AAHA-accredited" designation. The American Animal Hospital Association ("AAHA") strictly evaluates practices on over 900 standards of care to make sure accredited practices are at the forefront of the profession in providing the highest quality of medical care for your pet.
After initial accreditation, practices are routinely reevaluated to make sure they maintain the stringent quality standards as the practice of veterinary medicine continues to evolve. Dental disease is the number one health issue diagnosed in dogs and cats. Bad breath and tartar are very serious signs and can lead to periodontal disease.

For any pet, you need to pet-proof your home. Some of the top things to think about are: 1) making sure all cleaners, chemicals, medications are locked up; 2) keeping trash cans covered; 3) blocking off any small nooks animals can hide in; 4) keeping any food out of reach; and 5) making sure all cords, electrical or otherwise are out of reach and wall sockets covered.
There are many pet food choices on the market today. Pet food is sold everywhere from grocery stores to pet and specialty stores. You can even purchase pet food online and have it shipped to your house on a regular schedule. With so many options available, picking a quality pet food for your best friend can be overwhelming.
Being knowledgeable about the most common toxins, including foods, that may harm your dog or cat can make the difference between life and death for your pet. The most important thing to remember is that if you believe your pet has ingested or come into contact with any poisonous substance, call your veterinarian immediately.
Choosing safe toys for your pet may be a daunting task, especially if you have recently gotten a new dog or cat. Toys are an important part of our pets' lives. Toys provide environmental enrichment, helping pets fight boredom on a daily basis. However, many toys also pose a safety risk for our pets.
Allow your dog to use the bathroom and have some playtime before putting them in the crate. Work on duration in the crate. Place your dog in the crate for 15 seconds and then let them out and praise them with toys or treats. Build up to longer durations until they are comfortable being in the crate for 15 minutes.

8 weeks after they said my dog's leg would not heal, His broken leg is healed thanks to Blue Pearl! I'm Here to remind everyone 4 Paws wouldn't even touch my dogs leg but still charged us for a consultation and xrays they took even though they knew they couldn't help the animal. If you have a major concern with your pet for anything above BASIC Flea and tick and heart worm, then skip these guys and go straight to Blue Pearl because they care about your animal and have the actual resources and plans to help you. 4 Paws will take $400 from you just to refer your pet elsewhere. We now go to Blue Pearl

The staff was very friendly with a clean environment. I really did enjoy their personalities. However, the pricing was higher than most vets. Also they try to sell you on things not really needed. I called two other vets & was told I didn't need most of the stuff this facility tried to sell me on although I did pay for one item just for a peace of mind.. also the other vets quoted cheaper prices for the same services. I just didn't go to any of those because their available appts were way too far out. Keep in mind the dog I brought in was a senior and may only have 3 years left at most due to the

Dr. Tharp and all the team are not only the best for the pets, but they are also friendly and warm with us. I've been going there for about 14 months now. They took good care of our 9yo baby until he passed away, and now they're again taking excellent care of our new puppy. We highly and only recommend them!

Four Paws is awesome! When you come back in they are excited to meet your pet and treat them like their own. They have great customer service, nice and clean facility, and very competitive prices. There is no forced sales here, they just want to educate you and are looking out for your pets safety and health. They have my highest recommendations.
