How to have an easy vet appointment!
We are looking forward to seeing you and your precious pet! Here are some resources to help you get the most out of your pet’s appointment.
Start Here!
Pre-Appointment Forms
Save time during your appointment by filling these forms out ahead of time.
This form gets your pet's medical record set up, gives us permission to treat your pet, and reviews our policies.
If your pet is already established in our system, you don't need to fill out this form again.
Please take 2-3 minutes to answer a few questions about your pet's medical history so we can get all your questions answered during the exam.
Low Stress Visit Tips
Here are things you can practice at home and bring with you to help your pet be more comfortable while they are here with us!
Bring fresh samples from home, ideally collected no more than 4 hours before your appointment:

Bag fresh poop
Give pre-visit calming medications (if prescribed for your pet)
Here's an article with more information about why they are important.
Practice holding your pet at home the same way that they will be handled during the exam so they are comfortable with different positions. Give plenty of rewards during practice (and bring facorite rewards with you!)
Do you think your pet is in pain?
Getting pets to the vet.
We want your pet to stay safe through their entire trip- nobody needs the extra stress of an escape attempt! All pets should arrive in a carrier or with a properly fitted collar/harness and leash.
Check out the videos below for tips on how to make sure collars and harnesses fit correctly.
