CFrance, Wildwood is close to 466A.
I know that, Bare; I live just north of 466A. I made the comment due to the fact that you can't get through 466A from Pinellas Plaza over to 301, as the road is ripped up. Not sure how new Suzi is or if she knows the shortcuts to get around this.

At any rate, we have no shortage of good vets around, and once you know the lay of the land, it's really not far to gt to any of them.

We use two Veterinary practices. I like to be registered at Buffalo Ridge because they have a 24 hour Emergency Service. I think of Buffalo Ridge as a "high tech" facility. I think they have three Vets now. They are located just off CR 466 across from The Villages Charter School. The office is new, it opened a few years ago, and I've heard lots of positive comments about it.

The other Vet we use is Dr. Tim Porter in Wildwood, close to CR 466A. He is more of an old-fashioned Vet without a lot of bells and whistles. We like him.

Please PM me if you have any questions, or want addresses and telephone numbers.
Agree re Dr. Porter in Wildwood. Ben and Jerry will be getting their shots there soon.

Have noted all the vets and will check them out before I make an appointment. I'm not bothered by less-than-fancy offices. But I want a knowledgeable and trustful vet.
Now I need some names and phone numbers of truly loving dog sitters. I have big plans for my dog......she and I hope to be comfort volunteers as soon as she attends classes and gets a little older. I want her treated real well because someday she will be helping others. So please, send me names and numbers of those people who could care for our future volunteer dog.

Suzi,

I just opened one of those envelopes full of coupons, and in it there is an ad for Buffalo Ridge. It says they are opening an office in Pinellas Plaza "soon." Don't know who the vets are, but that certainly would be close.
