The Country Vet in Novato

The Country Vet in Novato We are a small animal veterinary hospital offering traditional & holistic therapies such as acupuncture and Chinese herbs.

The Country Vet began in 1981 as a large and small animal practice based in the home of Dr. Jim Codington and his family. In the late 1980’s Jim turned the focus of his practice toward small animal medicine and slowly transitioned his home into the hospital as it stands today. Aside from a distinctive pastoral setting, our hospital is unique in that we not only utilize the latest technology and eq

uipment as diagnostic tools, we also offer a variety of alternative therapies and holistic approaches to supplement traditional Western medicine. This ensures an environment that is constantly integrative of trends from all sides of the veterinary medicine spectrum. Dr. Codington has created a practice that emphasizes the importance of meeting the needs of each individual patient. We understand that needs and concerns vary and strive to meet each as they arise. Our pets are a huge part of our family. For many of us, especially those who don’t have children, our furry friends are our children. We understand the bond that exists between pets and their human counterparts. We will continually strive to strengthen that bond by keeping your pets healthy and happy.

Dogs’ strong sense of smell and taste can often lead them to eat things they shouldn’t. Some dogs are more prone to doing this than others, but all dogs have the potential to eat something that could be dangerous, whether it’s toxic human foods and medications or something non-edible, like detergents or plastic. This is just a shortlist of everyday things to monitor your pet around – as a pet owner, it’s a good idea to educate yourself on household hazards and ways to pet-proof your space. But if you suspect they’ve eaten something they shouldn’t have, don’t delay. Bring them to your closest emergency vet as soon as possible.
