Our commitment to your pet’s health is reflected in our fully stocked in-house pharmacy. When it comes to prescription medications, accurate dosage and administration are of the utmost importance. As your pet’s prescribing veterinarian, you can trust that when you fill prescriptions at our pharmacy, your companion will receive the right medication, at the right dose, in the right form as quickly as possible. We will also provide you with detailed instructions on the medication’s use, discuss any side effects or interactions and even administer the first dose for you if possible.

At our Inver Grove Heights pharmacy, we maintain a comprehensive inventory of pharmaceuticals, vitamins, shampoos, flea and tick control products and heartworm preventatives to meet your pet’s needs. We also carry Science Diet and Royal Canin prescription pet food.

A lost pet is a frightening situation, often with devastating consequences. Studies have shown more than 10 million pets get lost each year and approximately 90% of those found would not have been returned to their owners without some form of permanent lost pet identification.

This is why the team at Inver Grove Heights Animal Hospital considers microchip pet IDs a fundamental way to protect your pet and an important part of responsible pet ownership. We use AKC Reunite’s ISO Indigo microchip system. Each microchip registers the animal with a unique identification number, which is filed in a database with your contact information. The contact information can be updated any time, and it is important to remember to do so whenever your information changes. If your pet is lost, the microchip can be scanned by animal control officers, at shelters, and at veterinary hospitals in the U.S. and many foreign countries.

This safe, reliable, and permanent pet identification takes less than 10 seconds to implant and can save you and your pet days, weeks, or more of fear and anguish

Behavior problems are the number one reason that owners give up a pet. Inver Grove Heights Animal Hospital offers hour-long behavior counseling for limited behavioral issues. The hospital refers cases that involve severe aggression to behavior specialists elsewhere.

We provide Interstate and International health certificates. We ask that you investigate your destination’s requirements prior to your appointment. Many countries require Rabies titer testing and microchipping. We can provide these services for your pet.

Because each destination country has different requirements for your pet’s entry, you are responsible for supplying the list of requirements that need to be met for traveling; we can only accommodate the guidelines you provide. Inver Grove Heights Animal Hospital cannot assume responsibility for ensuring all the requirements are met for your situation and cannot be held responsible for quarantine, denial of entry, or costs incurred due to unfulfilled requirements for your pet.
