Vet Clinic Services



The on-site veterinary clinic is a full-service small animal hospital. We have in-house radiology, diagnostic laboratory, surgical tables and hospitalization complete with ultrasounds, x-rays facilities for dogs, cats, rabbits and wildlife.

Compassionate care is an important part of proper medical care and pets are closely supervised and given pain medications to ease their discomfort. We have 3 full time vets on staff, who take care of the animals at the clinic.

Thanks to the clinic we vaccinate, deworm and neuter the abandoned animals we have at the shelter. All adoptions are free, but any donation is welcome. There are about 80 dogs and 50 cats adopted out per month. We put to sleep the incurably sick animals because we are a “no kill shelter”.
We have our low/no cost neutering program, between 30 to 40 animals per day are neutered for people who cannot afford a private vet.
One of our vet travels once a week to far away places to do sterilizations on-the-spot for those who cannot make it to our clinic.
The Humane Society International has helped us start the shelter and they are there when we need them. We also rely on volunteers to clean the cages and care for the animals. But we need your help too.
