Alamo Dog & Cat Hospital

Dr. U.E. Marney founded the hospital and at that time, it was called the Veterinary Service Institute operating as Alamo Dog & Cat Hospital for large and small animals. It was a full service hospital also offering ambulance service and all grooming and pet needs. After Dr. U.E. Marney, Drs. Parker, Brown, and Culpepper operated the practice until 1971, at which time Dr. Eric Lange and Dr. Ronald Orrell took over the practice.

Your pet's health is our priority! With the examination findings, your pet's doctor will recommend treatment options or further diagnostics, all with the goal of providing you and your pet with the best possible care, and give you a full understanding of the situation. When your pet gets a fever, stomach infection, vomiting or diarrhea, or just doesn't feel well, you should bring him or her in for an exam.

Our team members are available to speak at many of the elementary schools in the area for career days. We also offer to the schools a tour of the facilities and work in conjunction with the area high school student work programs. Alamo Dog & Cat Hospital is also a proud sponsor of SA Five Diamonds Little League and various other youth programs.

We offer boarding for cat and dogs 6 months of age and older. All boarding dogs must be current on their yearly DHLPP, Rabies and Bordetella (kennel cough) vaccinations. Pets are fed two times a day and are walked by our lovable staff two times a day. Boarders are fed Science Diet Sensitive Stomach dry food.

Pet insurance pays, partly or in total, for veterinary treatment of the insured person's ill or injured pet. Some policies will pay out when the pet dies, or if it is lost or stolen. As veterinary medicine is increasingly employing expensive medical techniques and drugs, and owners have higher expectations for their pets' health care and standard of living than previously, the market for pet insurance has increased.
