To Our Beloved Clients,

Effective June 1, we have resumed seeing non-essential visits.   We are continuing to do our part to slow the spread of COVID-19.  Our appointment schedule has been adjusted to allow social distancing and proper sanitation.    We are also adding additional open time between appointments to allow for more “social distancing”, and disinfection of surfaces.

Other procedures put into effect: Face masks are required for entry into the building.  We cannot allow more that 3 adult persons in our reception room at any one time, to make sure we can properly distance.  If the room is full, please return to your car and call the front desk at: 508-759-4522.

We understand that you may need regular medications, diets and other supplies for your pet.  Please call us to arrange for pickup of those medications.  We can take credit card payments over the phone and meet you in the parking lot with your pet’s medication.  

We understand this puts a hardship on all of us.  In the case of a true emergency, please contact:

Cape Cod Veterinary Specialists at 508-759-5125.  They are located at 11 Bourne Bridge Approach, Buzzards Bay.  

New England Animal Medical Center at 508-584-1600.  They are located in West Bridgewater on Rte 106 @ Rte 24

Sincerely, 

Dr. Lappin & Staff at The Animal House
