Oh dear, don't say three dogs, you'll unleash the wrath of the dog police.

Our primary vet is Dr. Tim Porter
He is more of an old-fashioned vet
354 Shopping Center Drive
Wildwood
352-748-6348

We sometimes use Buffalo Ridge on CR 466
They have a "high tech" office with lots of people in white coats
352-750-4711
They have a 24 hour Emergency Service

I think Dr. Porter will give you a "family" discount if you have more than one dog. I don't think Buffalo Ridge offers that discount.

There is also a vet service that visits Doggie Doo Run Run, the private dog park on CR 101, north of CR 466. I think the visits are scheduled every two weeks in the winter, perhaps less in the summer. They aren't a full service vet, but do give some shots. If you want more info, please PM me.

We take our girl to Live Oak on 475 in Summerfield.We highly reccommend them .it's about a half hour drive but worth the trip.We find them to be very inexpensive compared to the vets up north. Very caring staff.

Default Buffalo Ridge

We are extremely happy with all of the vets at Buffalo Ridge. The have a vet on site 24 by 7. They also board and groom. We lost our Zorro 2 weeks ago and they were very supportive. I feel they are a top notch hospital.
