Boarding & Grooming

A Safe & Friendly Environment to Board Your Pet

Boarding can be a stressful experience. Separated from your pet, you are placing his or life into the hands of someone else. At Dallas Highway Animal Hospital, we not only understand this dilemma, but also we make it our primary goal to treat every pet like he or she is one of our own.

Boarding

Whether it's for one night, one week, or one month, we provide top-quality and compassionate care for both dogs and cats. Except for medication and prescription diets, we provide our guests with everything they'll need to feel comfortable away from home. From food and beds to blankets and toys, we've got it covered. Even the food we serve is specialized. Sold only to vets and hospitals, it is designed to provide top-quality nutrition without aggravating any sensitive stomachs.

To avoid undo anxiety for our guests, we board dogs and cats separate from each other. Cats and smaller dogs are kept in private cages, while larger breed dogs are kept in spacious runs. Every pet is exercised three to four times daily, and more if needed. Our kennel assistant's only job is to look after our guests, making sure each of them gets the attention they require. And, since we are an animal hospital, we provide your pet with expert medical supervision. During any non-business hours, we always have a veterinarian on call in case of emergency.

Diet

Dog diarrhea is caused for numerous reasons including stress. Common stressful situations that can trigger gastrointestinal (GI) upset in a dog include boarding, separation anxiety from their owner, and changes in their environment (noises, smells, etc.).

To help ease any stress related diarrhea we feed Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets EN Gastroenteric Canine Formulas while your pet boards with us unless they are on a specific veterinary diet for a diagnosed medical condition.

Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets EN Gastroenteric Canine Formulas are easy to digest and made with high-quality ingredients, including coconut oil or medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) vegetable oil, antioxidants, and prebiotic fiber to promote digestive health. 

Grooming

While we do not feature shave downs or hair cutting, for an extra charge we can provide bathing, nail trimming, and ear cleaning.
