Our wellness care services include nose-to-tail exams, vaccinations, and preventive treatments tailored to your pet's life stage. We emphasize early detection of health issues, parasite prevention, and nutritional guidance to ensure long-term health. Regular checkups help maintain your pet's quality of life and prevent costly emergencies.
Dental Care
We provide comprehensive dental exams, cleanings, and treatments to address gum disease, tooth decay, and oral infections. Digital X-rays and safe anesthesia ensure thorough care, while at-home care guidance helps maintain oral health between visits.

The best experience I have ever had from a vet. My son whiskey loved going there because we were comfortable too! They are empathetic and personable. I cant say enough good things about all the staff their. The hardest part was making the decision to euthanize our dog due to chronic pain and other medical concerns. The vet educated us on outcomes, progressive treatment etc. but also explained everything to us. They were so kind and Im so happy to know that when the time comes, that they will give as much love to our next family members. I highly recommend them to anyone who cares for their

After having seen 3 other vets, I brought my great dane to Canobie Lake Vet Hospital. On the FIRST visit, Dr. Dressler indicated that I needed to see a specialist, and the tests I could expect to be done by them. That I was "probably not dealing with 2 different issues, but one that encompassed all of the symptoms". She knew what I was facing, and sent me to the specialist. She was right. I finally had my answer. Biopsies don't lie. And, the treatment the other vets had put my dog on were exactly the opposite of what she needed. Fast forward another couple of months, my other dane had an issue

BIRD OWNERS: Take your birds somewhere else!!! I implore you. This facility needs to stop advertising that they can treat exotic animals, specifically birds. The vets and technicians are all very nice there, but unfortunately do not know what theyre talking about. They can only handle external injuries such as broken bones or cuts. If your bird has internal injuries or illnesses you need to take them elsewhere! Not trying to bash this office since I appreciate their efforts, but they just dont have the knowledge to treat exotics.

I rescued my irish wolfhound 3 months ago from my local rescue and she came with tapeworms. I treated her multiple times for worms but she still had them. This week I called my vet and sent photos of said worms and I got a voicemail saying they were hookworms not tapeworms and she needed to go to the ER ASAP because she may be anemic from them. They then prescribed me medication for tape and hookworms and only gave me a low dosage medication not fit for her weight for hookworms when I paid for both. I got a second opinion from my foster and 3 other vets and they said they were indeed tapeworms

I have a elderly gerbil who began growing fairly rapidly. I was very worried that it could be a tumor so I called my regular vet. They weren't able to see her for nearly 3 weeks. I love all my animals with my whole entire heart and this morning when she was visibly larger I became desperate to have her seen sooner. I called every practice I could find, near and not near to me. Nobody would see her. Canobie Lake Vereranary Hospital didn't have an opening either but they saw her between clients. I drove quite a ways to get her there. I can't express how thankful I am that they made time for my old

My one year old English bulldog has been an establish patient since i got her at 9 weeks old. One month ago I spent nearly 1000 dollars on a full work up for an aspiration pneumonia. My dog started experiencing the same symptoms yesterday and I recognized them and knew she was developing a reoccurring pneumonia. I called at 725 am to explain the symptoms, how my dog was appearing and expressed how important i thought it was for her to be seen. They would not accomodate an appointment today, even though they realized how she was presenting and her history. They offered me an appointment the next
