Services
Vaccinations
We provide core and non-core vaccinations for puppies, kittens, and adult pets to prevent infectious diseases. Our protocols follow AAHA guidelines and are tailored to each pet's lifestyle and risk factors. Vaccinations protect against rabies, distemper, parvovirus, and other preventable illnesses, ensuring compliance with local regulations and pet boarding requirements.
Pet Surgery
Our surgical services include spaying/neutering, soft tissue procedures, and emergency interventions. We use modern anesthetic protocols and monitoring equipment to ensure patient safety. Pre-operative bloodwork and post-operative care instructions help minimize risks and promote recovery for pets undergoing surgical treatment.
Animal Teeth Cleaning
We offer comprehensive dental cleanings, including scaling, polishing, and oral health assessments under anesthesia. Digital dental radiography helps identify hidden issues like tooth root abscesses. Regular cleanings prevent periodontal disease and maintain overall health for cats and dogs of all ages.
Digital Radiography
Our digital radiography system provides high-resolution images for diagnosing fractures, joint issues, and internal organ conditions. This technology allows faster image processing and lower radiation exposure compared to traditional X-rays. Images can be enhanced and shared electronically for specialist consultation when needed.
Pet Laser Therapy
Class IV laser therapy reduces pain and inflammation for pets with arthritis, post-surgical recovery, or soft tissue injuries. This non-invasive treatment stimulates cellular repair and improves circulation without medication side effects. Treatment plans are customized based on each patient's condition and response to therapy.

My dog Baby Girl got sick all of a sudden and got real bad within a day or 2, not eating, lethargic etc. My normal vet even in her condition told me it would be 6 days or so to see her, so I ended up calling Archdale Animal Hospital, from the initial phone call all the way thru to the end was very professional and I felt they truly cared about Baby Girl. Needless to say I will be using them from here on out. Matt the Vet was exceptional, I would recommend them to anyone needing help with their pet!
