For the last 2 years we have been contracted with the City of Colby to take in city strays and abandoned animals. We wanted to make this post to say….

THANK YOU to the Colby Police Department, Colby Community and surrounding NW Kansas Areas for helping us with this incredible achievement! And an even bigger thanks to all the pet lovers than help share our posts, get word out, foster, adopt and donate!! 💜🐾🐕🐶🐱🐈

Over the last 24 months, we’ve taken in OVER 220 animals and every single one of them was either returned to their rightful owner or adopted out. Only one pet that came through our doors the last 2 years was euthanized due to severe behavioral issues. We are hoping to mitigate rumors that we do unnecessary euthanasias.

We are a vet clinic and pet lovers at heart, and couldn’t do this job without the amazing support of the community pet lovers City of Colby, Northwest Kansas Pet Watch and EPAWA.

Austin, watching you take this next step toward your future makes us so proud! You started working for us at 15 and now leaving work/work-study to follow your dream of studying pre-vet at West Texas A&M University is such an exciting chapter, and we know you’re going to do amazing things. Your compassion for animals, dedication, and hard work are what make this path perfect for you. Even though it’s hard seeing you go, we are so happy you’re chasing something you truly care about. We hope this new adventure brings you unforgettable memories, lifelong friendships, and every opportunity you deserve. No matter where life takes you, always remember how loved and supported you are!

We are now offering Cardiologist Reviewed echocardiograms on both dogs and cats! 🫀

Unlike x-rays, an echocardiogram provides a detailed view of the heart’s muscle, valves and blood flow. The precise data obtained is more accurate and detailed than radiographs (x-rays) alone and helps us make even better treatment plans regarding medications and dosages. For patients with heart disease, we also recommend serial echocardiograms which can be used to track disease progression and see if medications are effectively managing the patient’s condition.

We are so lucky to have such a dedicated veterinarian, Dr. Beth Flax, that took many hours of continued education courses to be able to provide such a niche service to our clients! This is a very specialized skill and procedure that even the majority of clinics in the city cannot do. Having a Board Certified Veterinary Cardiologist review your pet’s case is gold standard of canine/feline heart disease!

WE NEED HELP!

We have 3 dogs that are in need of loving homes! We are getting very full! Please help us find these 3 angels a home!

1. Ruby - 1 year old female spayed German Shepherd! Super sweet and loving! Her manners are improving with a little work! Best in a home without cats.

2. Lucy - 3 year old female spayed Border Collie! She is super sweet also! Very high energy and would be amazing if given a job!

3. Rowdy - 1 year old intact male (he will be neutered prior to adoption). He is such a ham and is full of personality!

Please share so we can get these 3 placed in their forever homes! Please call 785-460-1078 if you’re interested!

Rowdy and Lucy are looking for their forever homes!! 🏠🐾

Rowdy and Lucy were unfortunately abandoned by their previous owners and found out by the sewer plant in town. Both were loaded with ticks and infested with worms - they are currently being treated for both, but now they have completed their 3 day stray hold and are available for adoption!

Rowdy is a lover boy, approximately 1 year, male intact, lab mix, and surprisingly calm once he’s out of the kennel.

Lucy is a 3 year old, spayed female, border collie. She knows some basic commands (in Spanish!) and is pretty high energy.

Please call (785) 460-1078 or fill out our adoption application online!
