HOW WE CARE FOR YOUR PET

Care for Every Chapter of Their Life

Every pet's story is different. Whether it's a playful new puppy, a cat who's stopped eating, or a senior who's slowing down, we'll tell you what they actually need and what can wait.

Wellness Exams & Vaccines

Yearly checkups that catch the small stuff early, so they stay their happy, healthy selves.

Sick Visits

Not eating? Limping? Just not themselves? You know your pet best. We'll see them as soon as we can.

Surgery

Spays, neuters and soft-tissue procedures, plus a call to let you know they're waking up okay.

Dental Care

Healthy teeth mean happier mealtimes and fresher kisses.

Puppy & Kitten Care

All the first-year shots and your new-pet questions. Nothing is too small.

Senior Pet Care

Gentle care, comfort and honest guidance as your best friend ages.

WHY FAMILIES STAY

The Vet They'll Grow Up With

Puppies who came in for their first shots are now gray-muzzled seniors who still trot through our door. Kittens have grown into aristocratic, beloved old cats we know by their purr. That's what happens when you stick around. Your pet isn't an appointment to us. They're one of the faces we get to watch grow up.

Nothing gets rushed when Dr. McCahon examines your pet.

OUR HOME

A Home with History.

A Heart with Pets.

Our clinic lives in Colebrook Manor, a stone house built around 1840 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, complete with a historic barn and kennels.

Inside, it's all modern veterinary care. But we think pets, and their people, can feel the difference when a vet's office feels more like a home.
