Clinic Safety Policy
We desire to offer the highest quality care for our patients in a safe environment. We are unable to service uncooperative animals without proper restraint, as deemed appropriate by our doctor.
Owners Participation In Keeping Pets and Staff Safe During Visits:
- Bring the animals into the hospital in a controlled manner. Those animals should be able to be worked with without undo danger to the staff.
- Owners, watch this short video to help protect your pet during their visit: https://youtu.be/u7EdInpqAjQ?si=GePBRGg5aUDn-5R3
- Potentially aggressive, nervous, or frightened will be dogs muzzled by the owners. Note: Pets that hide under chairs are considered nervous and/or frightened.
- The owners are required to place the animals on the exam table. This is the help calm the pet and reassure them that they are safe.
- If the owner is unable to get a muzzle on the pet, they will need to bring someone with them who can get a muzzle on the pet.
