"Pardon our Dust"
We are currently undergoing a "behind the scenes" remodeling of our treatment
center, surgery suite and x-ray rooms. This is a very extensive project that involves moving walls, adding 1200 sq.ft., and purchasing new equipment. We are very excited about the improvements and will
be able to offer our patients a higher level of care. The mess in the parking lot is all part of this. We hope to be done by February.
Additionally, the City of Laguna Woods has decided to improve the left turn lane onto Moulton Pkwy. Unfortunately, they have
removed the private turn "pocket" into our pet hospital. If you are heading North on El Toro road (away from the beach), go past the hospital, make a U-turn at Moulton and
come back. Leaving LHAH, if you need to head North, turn right, go up to Home Depot and make a U-turn.
NEED A MEDICATION REFILL?
NEW SERVICE: If your pet takes medication on a regular basis and coming into the pet hospital to
pick it up is inconvenient, we are happy to mail it directly to your home.
Mark your calendar . . . . .
The 3rd. annual bake sale is planned for December 13th. (Saturday).
Jenna, a caring, highschool student co-ordinates the event.
The proceeds are used to help pet owners in financial need. Last year's proceeds benefitted 10 clients and 2 non-profit rescue groups.

The Internet has become an integral part of our lives and serves as the "information highway" for many pet owners.

ID MICROCHIPS
With the recent, horrible fires that scared us all there have been many "thank goodness" stories
about lost pets being reunited with their owners due to identification microchips. A small, painless, inexpensive ($35) microchip placed under the loose
skin over the neck literally can make the difference between life and death for the 4-legged members of your family.

OUR DOCTOR'S DESK
Can pets spread SARS to people?
With the recent outbreak of this severe viral infection (severe acute respiratory syndrome) pet owners are worried. 774 people have died from
SARS. Reports have come out implicating cats and ferrets as pets that may be able to spread the disease to humans.
Dr. Stohr, the former head of the World Health Organization, has said that these animals in all likelihood did not play a role in the outbreak.
