Thanksgiving time is here. While you likely have all the ingredients for a delicious Thanksgiving dinner, your dog’s health and safety may not have crossed your mind. From precautions to take, food to avoid giving them, and food they can happily enjoy, Park Avenue Animal Hospital offers dog safety tips so you can enjoy a fun, food-filled Thanksgiving.

Dogs CAN have carrots, celery, corn (no cob), sweet potatoes, green beans, apples with no core or seeds, pumpkin, rice, quinoa, a little cheese and of course Turkey with no skin or bones.

Dogs CAN’T have ham, chocolate, garlic, leeks, onions, grapes, raisins, raw potatoes, mashed potatoes, raw dough, canned cranberries, pre-made desserts, pie filling or stuffing. In case of an emergency, be sure to have the Pet Poison Helpline available: 1-855-764-7661.

Since 2008, Park Avenue Animal Hospital has been providing a wide variety of services to keep your furry, four-legged friends in the best of health. With cutting edge technology and the bedside manner of a small-town doctor, they’re equipped to handle almost any ailment your pet may face.

While dogs and cats are by far the most popular choice for most pet owners, the doctors at Park Avenue Animal Hospital have a special place in their hearts for all animals, furry, feathery, or scaly.     

With over 40 years of combined quality veterinary experience, the doctors have gone well beyond standard veterinary education and practice to further their knowledge of animal care to include reptiles, rabbits, ferrets, birds, guinea pigs, and more. Whether it’s an annual checkup or a critical emergency, they are prepared to handle any situation.

Fully equipped with diagnostic and surgical tools to meet practically any situation, Park Avenue Animal Hospital can provide reasonably priced medical and surgical care without sacrificing quality, in a setting designed to take the stress out of visiting your vet.

Routine examinations, vaccines, dentistry, and nutritional and behavioral advice are just some of the services provided by the doctors and staff in a beautiful office that is as comfortable as your own home.

If you’ve ever owned a dog or a cat, you know that if your furry friend needs medical care, you can take him to your local vet’s office. But what happens when your iguana, parrot or rabbit gets injured? What about when your chinchilla or ferret doesn’t feel well?

In the past, owners of exotic pets had to search far and wide to find a veterinarian who was willing to see an exotic patient. Most veterinary offices simply aren’t equipped or staffed to take on these animals and will refer you to a specialist, which can get very pricey.

With Park Avenue Animal Hospital’s convenient location at 847 N. Park Avenue (Rock Springs Road) in Apopka, affordable help for all your pets is now right in your own community!

Whether dog or cat, ferret or chinchilla, gecko or bearded dragon, parakeet or macaw (even the occasional hawk or owl!), at Park Avenue Animal Hospital, the goal remains unchanged: To provide affordable healthcare for pets without sacrificing quality medicine, and to provide consistent, reliable information for pet owners to help them make the best decisions for their pets’ health.     You’ll find that the staff at Park Avenue Animal Hospital think of their clients and the people of Apopka as part of their family. They are proud of their community and strive to make sure that everyone feels welcome in their clinic.
