How other owners feel about us
We would like to thank Don and the rest of the Dogwood team for everything they have done for Casper. He is making an excellent recovery after his spinal surgery and is certainly getting back to his normal self again. Thank you!
Judith Storey and her 1 year old Shih Tzu Casper
I couldn’t be happier with the treatment Luna received from Don and the team. She had excellent care during her few days there and I think she enjoyed all the fuss – and now she’s home we can’t keep her still!

Expert veterinary referral services
We’re not about bamboozling you with veterinary jargon, or trying to impress with fancy techniques and methods – and we’re definitely not going to brag about the variety of letters after our names. The truth is that good care doesn’t require it. What truly great care needs is compassion, logic and honesty, delivered by people who’ll always strive for the right outcome. You’ve got that with us.
