Lakewood Veterinary Center provides excellent medical care for your pets.

We understand the special role your pet plays in your family and are dedicated to becoming your partner in your pet's health care. From small to exotic animals, we treat each patient as if they were our own best friend! We will work one-on-one with you to design a specific health care strategy according to the age, breed, health status, and potential exposures your pet may encounter. The old "cookie cutter" approach where every pet receives the same preventive measures just doesn't cut it anymore.

Doorbells, costumes, candy, and strangers on the porch can make Halloween more stressful—and potentially dangerous—for pets.
Keep chocolate and other candy safely out of reach, and give anxious pets a quiet room away from trick-or-treaters and the constantly opening front door. If your pet wears a costume, make sure it fits comfortably and doesn’t restrict movement, breathing, hearing, or vision.
Most importantly, keep pets securely indoors and make sure their identification information is current in case someone slips out during the festivities.
A little preparation can keep Halloween fun instead of frightening for your furry family members.

Cooler weather brings some seasonal hazards that deserve a spot on every pet parent’s radar.

Antifreeze and rodenticides can be extremely dangerous to pets if ingested. Fall yard and garage projects may also put pets in contact with chemicals or unfamiliar mushrooms and plants.

Store automotive products, pest-control products, and lawn chemicals securely and clean up spills immediately. When walking your dog, keep an eye on what they’re sniffing or trying to eat.

If you know or suspect your pet has ingested something toxic, don’t wait for symptoms to appear. Contact Lakewood Vet or pet poison-control service right away.

They comfort nervous patients, assist our veterinarians, monitor anesthesia, collect samples, help with diagnostics, educate pet parents—and somehow still find time for an encouraging scratch behind the ears.

October 18–24 is National Veterinary Technician Week, and we’re celebrating the skilled, compassionate veterinary technicians who play such an important role in caring for our neighborhood pets.

We’re incredibly grateful for everything our veterinary technicians bring to our hospital, our patients, and their families every day.

Help us show our techs some love this week!

Looking for a walking buddy, couch companion, enthusiastic greeter, or professional crumb collector?

October is Adopt a Dog Month, and there are dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities waiting for homes. If you’ve been considering adding a dog to your family, visit a local shelter or rescue and see who might be the right fit.

Already adopted? Give your newest family member a healthy start with a veterinary exam and a plan for preventive care.

Here’s to second chances, new beginnings, and finding your new best friend.

Congrats to Taylor and Frankie for winning our State Fair contest. Hope you have a blast at the State Fair on LVC. We wish Frankie could tag along and see the stock animals, ride the crazy mouse, watch the dog agility and more. But please don’t bring home your pup a corn dog - it will not go well. 🙃 Congrats again Taylor!

Rabies is a deadly disease—but vaccination provides an important line of defense for pets and the people who love them.

For World Rabies Day on September 28, take a moment to check your pet’s vaccination records and make sure their rabies protection is current. Even pets that spend most of their time indoors can have unexpected encounters with wildlife.

Not sure when your pet is due? Contact Lakewood Veterinary Center at 214-826-4800. We can help you stay on top of your pet’s preventive care.

Pets can’t tell us when something hurts—and many are surprisingly good at hiding discomfort.

Changes such as slowing down, hesitating on stairs, sleeping more, hiding, decreased appetite, difficulty getting comfortable, or becoming unusually irritable can all be reasons to take a closer look.

September is Animal Pain Awareness Month, a good reminder that changes in your pet’s behavior or routine shouldn’t simply be dismissed as “getting older.”

If your pet isn’t acting like themselves, schedule an exam with Lakewood Veterinary Center. Identifying the source of discomfort is the first step toward helping them feel better. Give us a call or text at 214-826-4800.
