We are a state of the art veterinary medical and surgical facility. One visit to our practice will convince you that we truly treat your pet as if it was our own. By giving insight into some of the issues that a veterinary practice faces, and our feelings concerning these issues, you'll see that we take our responsibility to you and your pet very seriously.
Pets boarding at our facility are treated as if they were our own. This is not a cliché. As long as they are social, dogs are kept in groups either in the playroom, or in a closed in space behind our front desk. Usually anytime you visit our practice you'll see a few small dogs that you'd swear are our pets lying comfortably in beds behind the receptionists. Larger dogs, or the more bold little ones, will be seen playing or standing by the window of our playroom.
Cats have access to a large play tower. For social cats, we leave the door to their "condo" open during the day so they can move around and find a comfortable bed or sunny spot to lie on.
We know how stressful boarding your family member can be. Take the stress away by bringing your pet to stay with us. He or she will continue to get all the love and attention they've become accustomed to.
Our grooming is done by Kim Pfenninger, who also happens to be our office manager. Kim had worked at Commack Animal Hospital in every capacity over the past 19 years. We are very fortunate to have her here at TLVG.
We have walk in tubs to make bath time less frightening. The grooming area is separate and private which helps calm fragile nerves. Kim has a magical way with animals and her clients bond to her quite quickly.
A benefit of grooming at a veterinary office is that Kim always alerts the doctors to any issues she may see on her grooming patients. This way an ear infection or skin problem can be addressed at the same time as the "makeover".
