Veterinary Services
Our comprehensive veterinary services include preventative care, diagnostics, and treatment for dogs and cats. We offer routine wellness exams, vaccinations, and chronic condition management to maintain optimal pet health. Our experienced veterinarians use advanced medical technology to provide accurate diagnoses and effective treatment plans tailored to each pet's needs.
Pet Boarding
Our climate-controlled boarding facility provides safe, comfortable accommodations for pets when owners travel. Separate cat and dog areas minimize stress, with multiple daily walks and supervised play sessions available. Veterinary staff monitor boarders' health while maintaining strict sanitation and vaccination requirements to ensure all pets' safety and well-being during their stay.
Dentistry
We provide complete dental services including cleanings, extractions, and oral surgery to maintain pets' oral health. Digital dental X-rays help identify hidden issues while cold laser therapy aids post-operative recovery. Our technicians educate owners about home dental care to prevent periodontal disease and related systemic health problems in pets.
Cold Laser Therapy
This non-invasive treatment reduces pain and inflammation for pets with arthritis or chronic conditions. Laser therapy promotes healing by increasing blood circulation and cell regeneration without medication side effects. Our certified technicians customize treatment plans to improve mobility and quality of life for pets requiring long-term pain management.
Emergency Care
We offer after-hours emergency services for established clients with critical pet health issues. Our fully equipped facility handles trauma, poisoning, and acute medical crises while coordinating with local emergency clinics during off-hours.

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
