What Our Pet Parents Are Saying
"We love going to Three Trails Animal Hospital. We have been going to Dr Schrock for over 20 years, ever since I got my first ferret. He is very good. Precise. He will tell you the truth about everything, whether it has to do with treatment, animals' condition, on anything. The staff is really helpful. Even though their prices have gone up a bit recently, they are still very reasonable compared to a lot of places. We wouldn't go anywhere else. Would recommend them higly."

"Had our Labrador girl in to be checked for issues with her hip/backside. Dr. Schrock always takes such gentle care of our doggies. He even got down on the floor to be at her height to see what was going on with her. My wife and I are always satisfied with the care at Three Trails Animal Hospital, and we’re also quite happy with our interactions with all of the staff we’ve dealt with. Cannot recommend Three Trails Animal Hospital enough!"

"Me and my husband just recently moved to the area and we had not gotten a vet for our dogs unfortunately my big baby caught parvo he had been vaccinated but somehow he caught it lucky my other two didn't. But thanks to the caring veterinarian here knowing that I had limited funds ( My husband is a disabled veteran) they helped us and I can say Kujo is up and eating and playing. We are so excited that we now know where our 3 dogs will be going. Thank You so much for actually caring about animals."

"They were kind and considerate. the place was clean. they made everything, calm and simple to deal with for putting my 12 year old dog down. they got him in same day I called, which was good, because he was starting to not eat. they didn't shame me for the fact he was over weight. they took care of him, and my feelings, very well. and told me, I was being kind, and thinking of him first. any pets I get in the future, I would probably take them here as a vet."
