Our Mission

Our goal at Paws and Claws Animal Hospital is to provide the best possible care for your family pet. Our motto is “We will take care of your best friend.” We provide a wide variety of services to accommodate you and your pet.

Senior Care

Because our pets age so much faster that we do it is vital to monitor their health closely after age seven. This can be done by performing a complete physical exam every six months and senior bloodwork once a year. Even though your pet is acting normally, this combination (exam and bloodwork) can detect changes in the body that may go undetected by the owner. By catching problems early we can make changes to keep your pet healthy for years to come.

Surgery

We perform a wide array of surgeries at Paws and Claws ranging from non-invasive dentals to complex tumor removals. We routinely use ekg, respiratory moniter, and pulse oximerty to help moniter the anesthesia closely. We also advocate pain relief before and after surgery which has been shown to speed up healing time and decrease complications. We consider no surgery routine and strive to provide our patients with the best surgical and post op care available.

Behavior Consultations

Dr. Robin Hall is a Member of the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior. She treats dogs and cats that are patients at Paws and Claws Animal Hospital as well as referrals. Dr. Hall treats many abnormal behaviors such as aggression, separation anxiety and thunderstorm phobias in dogs . She also treats behavior problems in cats such as inappropriate urination or house soiling. In most cases a complete physical exam and bloodwork are performed prior to the actual consultation. This is done in order to rule out any medical problem that may be contributing to the behavior. Also, Dr. Hall may need to prescribe drug therapy for a short period of time. She must be sure that your pet is healthy in order to start any drug therapy. Dr. Hall consults with you and then formulates a plan for you, your family and your pet. Follow up appointments are scheduled after a period of time. Dr. Hall is always available to answer your questions during and after treatment. Call today to schedule your pet's consultation.
