Pet Examinations
Our comprehensive wellness exams help detect health issues early. We recommend annual nose-to-tail examinations for all pets. Puppies and kittens require more frequent visits during their first year to establish proper growth patterns and vaccination schedules. Our veterinarians thoroughly assess weight, dental health, organ function, and overall condition during each visit.
Emergency Services
We provide critical care for pets during business hours and partner with local emergency hospitals for after-hours treatment. Our team handles trauma cases, poisoning, breathing difficulties, and other life-threatening conditions. Immediate intervention significantly improves outcomes for pets experiencing medical emergencies. We maintain equipment for stabilization and diagnostics.
Dental Cleaning
Professional dental cleanings prevent periodontal disease and systemic infections. Our procedure includes ultrasonic scaling, polishing, and fluoride treatment under anesthesia. We address tooth extractions when necessary and provide home care guidance. Regular dental maintenance extends pets' lifespans and prevents organ damage from bacterial spread.
Senior Care
We offer specialized monitoring for pets over seven years old. This includes bi-annual bloodwork, mobility assessments, and early detection of age-related conditions like kidney disease and arthritis. Our team develops customized nutrition plans and pain management strategies to maintain quality of life for aging companions.
Vaccinations
Core and elective vaccines protect pets from contagious diseases. We follow AAHA guidelines for rabies, distemper, and parvovirus prevention. Vaccine schedules consider lifestyle factors and local regulations. Our staff explains each vaccine's purpose and potential side effects to ensure informed healthcare decisions for your pet.

Everyone at this office is always so friendly and they seem to genuinely care about my dog. My dog had an emergency on a holiday and I needed to take her to OSU emergency, where she spent the night in the ICU. The next day Dr. Horne personally called to get the story and to see how she was doing. That was followed by the office receptionist giving a couple follow-up calls just to make sure she was recovering normally. On top of the service, Dr. Horne is extremely knowledgable and up-to-speed on current research and new treatments in vetinary medicine. Nothing but positive things to say about this

I'm probably going to start getting emotional as I write this, but this is the second time that the Clintonville Animal hospital has completely turned very severe situations around. Dr. Horne and Dr. Weller are people who TRULY care, and it's obvious in the way they provide services. Not only that, but they are very direct when it comes to pricing and services. I couldn't ask for a better team of people, including the front desk. See, when you don't deal with places that have a lot of the "frills", you get direct communication and honesty. I will never, ever, take my animals anywhere else, and
