Overall

Professionalism

So we took our cat to get fixed. They said over the phone that they charge $75. I thought it was too good to be true. Turns out I was right. They ended up charging us $250. This price included a second surgery to witch would've solved the need for the first. They also said that this second surgery was "required". Due to much research it turns out it is recommended. I've talk to many other people and they have the same thing to say about this place. I will say this tho...... they have made a Hoof'n Paw customer outta ne. Never agian.

Overall

They took my poor sick kitty named Lou Lou in very late in the day and on a Friday no less. She had an infection and I was watching her die until I called them and they said "Bring her in! " She came home the next day and within two days she was herself again. Mischief and all. Thanks so much.

Preventive Care

Dental Care
Vaccination
Bring your puppy or kitten to us for his initial exam. We hand out the following linked guidelines at that exam to answer your questions. Feel free to ask more, and be sure to bring a fresh fecal sample (less than 24 hours, not frozen) and any veterinary documents regarding treatments and vaccinations.
Behavioral Counseling
Comprehensive Examination

Illness Treatment

Parasites Treatment and Control
Heartworm preventatives (such as Heartgard Plus and Iverhart Max) prevent the development of adult heartworms in dogs that may have been bitten by an infected mosquito. These products will kill any immature heartworms transmitted to the dog in the last 30 days. For this reason, you should give heartworm preventative at least from May through December when living in northern climates like ours.Giving the preventative all year-round is even better since it improves compliance (makes it easier not to forget a dose) and helps control the most common intestinal parasites (roundworms, hookworms, and possibly tapeworms). Flea and tick preventatives (such as Frontline Plus and Vectra 3D) work by preventing infestations for 30 days after application. In our area, we usually see the first wave of ticks by mid-March when the snow starts to melt and a second wave in mid-September when the weather starts to cool off. Ticks will then last until the snow stays on the ground, usually in December.
Vomiting Treatment
Skin Condition and Allergy Treatment
Fleas are small, brown, wingless, blood-sucking insects and are one of our most common complaints among dog and cat owners. Pets can become infested through contact with other dogs, cats, or wildlife such as rabbits, raccoons, and rodents. Fleas aren't only a nuisance causing itchiness and hair loss but they can also spread serious diseases such as secondary skin infections, allergic reactions, tapeworms, and anemia.

Infection Treatment

Ear Infection Treatment
-In regards to ears, a mild amount of waxy ear discharge is normal in dogs and routine maintenance with an ear cleaner typically provides enough protection against an infection. However, specific signs of an ear infection include redness, swelling, excessive discharge, or pain with handling and if these are found then you should schedule an appointment for us to determine the appropriate medication.
Anal Gland Infection Treatment
Urinary Tract Infection Treatment

Chronic Condition Treatment

Diabetes Treatment
Knee Problems Treatment
Kidney Disease Treatment

Wound and Fracture Care
Signs that indicate you should immediately call a veterinarian include: difficulty breathing, pale gums, excessive bleeding from the wound, or a large/deep wound that needs stitches. If your pet is otherwise acting normally and doesn’t need immediate medical attention, here is a brief summary of general wound care...

Veterinary Surgery
Laser Surgery
We’ve been taking care of companion animals great and small since 1995. From dogs and cats to ferrets, rabbits, and guinea pigs, we will take the best care of your special friend, from emergency service to a video scope to even laser surgery.
Declawing
Spaying and Neutering
Millions of dogs and cats are euthanized (put to sleep) every year simply due to lack of homes. Rather than bringing more puppies and kittens into the world, help the ones that are already here by spaying or neutering your pet.
Cropping

Laboratory Services
We can rule-in or rule-out these issues through a series of simple tests such as physical examination, blood work, urinalysis, urine culture, and x-rays or ultrasound. Don't worry about bringing in a urine sample from your cat, we can often collect a sample in the clinic on the same day as your appointment. If you can restrict your cat's access to the litter box by crating them for a few hours before your appointment, that will help us collect urine sample better. If a thorough medical assessment has been performed to rule out possible medical causes then a thorough behavioral assessment should be performed to identify the cause of the problem.
X-Ray
Microchipping
Having your dog or cat routinely examined and microchipping are worth the peace of mind. We do them right, and affordably.

General Pet Care

Dog Training
This same philosophy works with positive dog training. For these reasons, DO NOT punish your puppy for accidents by scolding, hitting, or rubbing his nose in the mess but DO set him up for success with the following training steps. For more in-depth articles on housetraining and other behavior questions please visit the Behavior section on our Resources page.

Small Animal Vet
After two years of working as both a large-animal (dairy, beef, and horses) and a small-animal veterinarian in Spooner, WI, Dr. Brakken realized her passion was working with pets who were members of the family. She moved to Menomonie in 1991 and started the practice in 1995. After growing up on the wide open prairies of Montevideo, MN, and getting her undergraduate and veterinary degrees from the University of Minnesota, she came to the area for the rolling countryside, trees, and the small-town atmosphere with big-city amenities. She and her husband, Sean, love to cross-country ski and road/mountain-bike. Now she is trying her hand (or feet) at running and snowshoeing (of which her dog, Teg, a 25-lb. humane-society adoptee, fully approves). She enjoys all levels of medicine with a special interest in preventative dentistry.
