Happy Sunday! Our food drive to benefit AFAC starts TOMORROW! We’ve got our donations ready and would love your contributions in supporting this important, local group!
Starting this Monday 9/21 we will be collecting Food Drive donations to benefit the Arlington Food Assistance Center! We will be collecting donations for the next month until 10/17. We will also have a promotion going on during that time: if you bring in 5 or more non-perishable goods to any appointment or scheduled tech call we will give your pet a complimentary nail trim! We look forward to seeing you soon!

Shirlington Animal Hospital updated their business hours.
As we head into the final weeks of summer, now is a good time to check your inventory of flea and tick meds and prevent these little pests from latching on to your pets for a ride home.
Give us a call and order your pets’ medication like flea, tick and heart worm preventives over the phone! We’ll have it ready to be picked up curbside.
Those treats add up! 😱
A little for you is a lot for your pet. For reference, here’s some pet to human food ratios.
Sharing human treats with your pet can lead to unhealthy weight gain, vomiting, diarrhea, and pancreatitis. Please think twice and consider a nutritious doggie or kitty treat!
