As you all know, Melissa, our beloved receptionist, passed away in February. She has the most loving dog that is now in need of an amazing home. His name is Jameson. He’s about 8 years old and a boxer mix. He would do great in a single animal home or older animal home. He’s such a good boy and needs some love. He will be up to date on all vaccines. If anyone has any questions, or you’re serious about wanting to accept him into your loving home, please call the animal hospital at (352) 726-2830.
