Veterinary Services
Our comprehensive veterinary services include preventative medicine, diagnostics, and treatment for dogs and cats. We emphasize early detection through wellness exams and blood work to maintain long-term pet health. With experienced veterinarians and modern equipment, we handle routine care and complex medical issues while prioritizing compassionate communication with pet owners.
Pet Boarding
Our climate-controlled boarding facility offers safe, comfortable stays for pets. Cats have a dedicated low-stress suite, while dogs enjoy supervised outdoor play multiple times daily. Veterinary staff monitor all boarders' health, and medication administration is available. We require vaccinations to ensure a healthy environment for all guests staying at our facility.
Dentistry
We provide complete dental services including cleanings, x-rays, and oral surgery. Proper dental care prevents systemic health issues in pets. Our technicians use advanced imaging to diagnose problems early, ensuring effective treatment plans tailored to each animal's needs.
Cold Laser Therapy
This non-invasive treatment reduces pain and inflammation while promoting healing. We use cold laser therapy for arthritis management and recovery from injuries. The procedure increases circulation and supports natural tissue repair processes without requiring medication.

We have been clients for about 6 yrs and even after moving 1:20 minutes away we still come here for our appointment with our dogs! Dr Suero is always kind and takes the time to talk with us on any concerns about our dogs The staff is always friendly and happy to help It is so important to our rescue to have a veterinarian we trust and look to for advice. The office and exam rooms are always clean and the staff handing our dogs are curious and kind towards our dogs We feel comfort in leaving our dogs in their care!

Very expensive! They do everything they can to scam you out of all your money. You drop your pet off and they call you several times a day adding more services and if you don't do as they ask they will not take care of your pet. Unfortunately had to spend around $400 for a grooming today. There are definitely other clinics around town that will take good care of your pet and have consideration for you. I have made the mistake of sending my pet here more than once and it's the same every time:

We had an excellent experience our first time at TAH. From the front desk staff, to the tech and the docs, our pampered dog was shown great professional care and attention-and for a reasonable price. We know there are many good vet clinics in the area-you can't go wrong with this one.

Thank you so much Stephanie for actually asking what's wrong with my dog and going out of your way to see if the doc could squeeze Thor in. I am very thankful they were able to squeeze my pup Thor in to help relieve his pain. Brandon was great with Thor and very nice to me. And a special thanks to doctor Vance for helping us out. The staff is very friendly to you and your pet. Nothing worse than seeing your pets/kids in pain. This is my new permanent vet. Ty again
