Welcome to Plantation Pet Health Center


No Description resized to 300 pixels wideWe would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to our practice! We are a full service veterinary medical and surgical hospital.  Our practice handles a vast majority of veterinary medical and surgical needs for the traditional canine and feline pets; as well as many of the exotics including, but not limited to, birds, reptiles, rodents, and other small mammals and marsupials.  We also offer boarding and bathing facilities as well. We hope we can service all of your family's veterinary needs in the future.

Plantation Pet Health Center in Frisco, TX is a full service companion animal hospital. It is our commitment to provide quality veterinary care throughout the life of your pet. Our services and facilities are designed to assist in routine preventive care for young, healthy pets; early detection and treatment of disease as your pet ages; and complete medical and surgical care as necessary during his or her lifetime.

 

We understand the special role your pet plays in your family and are dedicated to becoming your partner in your pet's health care. We treat your pet as we would our own. Our goal is to practice the highest quality medicine and surgery with compassion and an emphasis on client education. Our entire health care team is committed to providing personal attention to the unique concerns of each individual pet owner.


WHAT'S NEW??

SUMMER BOARDING

We wanted to remind you that we do provide boarding services for your pets, especially this summer. We offer clean and comfortable facilities, in a climate controlled environment, with ready access to veterinary care. Dogs receive 3 outdoor periods a day during the week. If your pet should become ill or show signs of illness during their stay (e.g. vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite, abnormal urine, sores, etc.) they will be examined by a veterinarian at no charge. Once the examination is complete, you will be contacted at the number you provide for authorization for any testing or treatment the doctor feels is indicated. This of course only applies to symptoms developed while in our care and not those present prior to admission or wellness examinations for vaccinations, etc.

 

We also offer a discount for pets from the same family boarded in the same cage. The regular charge per night applies to the larger pet and the second is 50 % off! This assumes 2 per cage. It is at the veterinarian's discretion as to whether or not the breed or health or temperament of the pets will allow for more than 2 in the same cage.

 

The only other time that multiple pets per cage would not apply would be if either becomes aggressive towards the other, or if size or health (e.g. diarrhea, vomiting, contagious condition, etc.) do not allow for multiple occupancy. In these instances, boarding will be at full price only for those days when pets are separated from each other.

 

We will make every effort to accommodate these families, but will not sacrifice the health or safety of the pet for the sake of price or convenience.

 

Our regular nightly boarding charges are as follows:

 

Dog's Weight              Nightly Charge                       Additional pet

0-25 #                          $ 24.00                                    $ 12.00

26-50 #                        $ 27.00                                    $ 13.50

51-100 #                      $ 30.00                                    $ 15.00

> 100 #                        $ 34.00                                    $ 17.00

 

Cats                             Nightly Charge                       Additional pet

                                    $ 22.00                                    $ 11.00

 

For exotics please call for pricing and availability.

Bathing at the end of boarding is recommended but not required. We offer the bathing at a discounted price for all boarders. All bathing is done on the final day of boarding so those receiving a bath will not be ready for release until the afternoon to allow for bathing and drying time.

Call for pricing and for services included in the bath.

As always, space and special pricing are subject to availability.

All boarded pets must be current on vaccinations, and have had a negative intestinal parasite screen within the last year.

Call soon to reserve your spaces!

SENTINEL IS BACK!

We have Sentinel in clinic!!! The pricing is comparable to Heartgard with the added flea protection! Not sure how long this new introductory pricing will be maintained by the manufacturer but we wanted you all to know!

We Are No Longer Providing Grooming Services

It is with a very heavy heart we must announce we are no longer providing grooming services here at Plantation Pet Health Center.  Due to circumstances out of our control, our most recent groomer is no longer available.  As many of you may know, since our beloved Whitne retired from grooming three years ago, we have had a very difficult time finding a groomer who has maintained a long term vested interest.  Because this has been such a difficult road, the decision has been made not to replace our groomer indefinitely.  We apologize for any inconvenience this produces to our clients!  Grooming remains a critical part of many of our patient's health care, and we are more than happy to provide a grooming recommendation upon request.  We will continue to offer bath services, including toe nail trims, ear cleanings, anal sac expressions, and minimal brushing; however no actual hair cutting services will be offered at this time.

Thank you for your understanding in this matter, Dr. Martin & PPHC Staff
