In late 2022, IPH merged with Dr. K's Pet Clinic to become a full-service pet hospital. Once the merger was complete, we got right to work. We obtained the space next to the existing hospital and started the process of building out the wellness center of the hospital. The wellness center was completed in 2023, and a remodel of the original clinic began to transform it into an urgent care center. Now in 2024, we are ready to start accepting urgent care appointments.

You are the number one expert when it comes to your dog's number two, so when your fur-baby suddenly stops going, you take notice. 

Bogus Basin and Brundage have gotten some great snow so far this year. As for the Treasure Valley, we've seen a few fluffy inches, but alas, it is mostly gone now.

However you feel about it, here are a few extra safety precautions for your pets.

Since the first official veterinarian visit in the 1760's in France, pets have been dreading each and every time they are brought into the office. 

For anyone who has hiked in the Boise Foothills, or any of our forests, you’ve come across cheatgrass at some point in your journey, whether you realized it or not. Cheatgrass covers an estimated 7% of Idaho, and the dangers of the grass is a topic that we have covered before.

Dr. Throne is a native of the Treasure Valley and obtained her B.S. in Biology with a business minor from Boise State University.  Go Broncos! She then went north to complete her DVM at Washington State University in 2011. Following the completion of veterinary school, she moved to northern California to complete a one-year small animal medicine and surgery internship at the VCA Sacramento Veterinary Referral Center. Dr. Throne then worked at a small animal general practice in the area for 6 years before returning to Idaho.

The relationship between doctor and patient is a huge part of the healthcare process. The doctor needs to provide a knowledgeable, precise, caring, trustworthy experience for the patient, and, in turn, the patient needs to be able to work well with the doctor. The same goes for your pet--the only problem is that Fido can't tell you which vets he likes and which he doesn't (and if he could, he'd probably tell you he doesn't want to go to the vet at all!). That's why it's important to give your animals a helping hand and use a few smart tips to pick the best pet doctor.
