read moreEstablished in 1972, Capital Circle Vet Hospital is a locally owned full service pet care facility that provides veterinary care, boarding, and grooming services to Tallahassee and the surrounding area. Communication is a cornerstone of working with our clients to ensure the continued health and wellness of their companion friends. It is our priority to provide the finest veterinary care to our patients and it is our goal to assure that you, the pet parent, are well-informed and comfortable with the decisions made regarding your pet's care.

read moreThe in-house diagnostic capability at CCVH provides Tallahassee pet owners with on-site radiology services as well as routine testing of your pet's blood chemistry to determine the overall health of your special friend. Bloodwork values are extremely important in veterinary medicine, because our pets are unable to verbally communicate with us and let us know that they aren't feeling well. Other routine tests performed on-site include fecal analysis, urinalysis and testing for parasites. Having this on-site capability enables our veterinarians to provide diagnostic and therapeutic services to care for your pet's complete health care needs from routine physical examinations to more complicated diseases.

read moreMany changes in dogs and cats can occur in a relatively short amount of time, making annual visits very important for the health of your pet. Yearly visits can uncover medication needs, dental issues, and early onset of age-related diseases. Prevention or early discovery of problems can greatly increase the quality and length of life in dogs and cats. Our doctors recommend yearly exams in order to provide the best preventative care for the life of your pet. Vaccinations are part of a complete preventative care approach.

read moreOral health is an important factor in your pet's overall well being. We perform routine check-ups on your pet's teeth and gums, and we also recommend full dental cleanings when indicated. Dental prophylaxis is done under general anesthesia. In addition to the benefit of being able to physically perform the procedures, this prevents your pet from inhaling bacteria. Although anesthesia is never risk free, we take every precaution to minimize risk, including offering pre-anesthetic blood screens. Your pet is monitored while under anesthesia.

read moreExcited for your big vacation but don't know who is going to care for your dog or cat while you're gone? No need to worry, we are happy to watch your pet while you are away. We offer quality boarding services and take good care of your pet. Your pet is provided with an ample living space, but they are not cooped up for all of their time here. We walk your dog 4 times a day so they get the exercise they need. They also get a lot of playtime to take their mind off of being away from home. All animals are fed twice a day and provided with comfortable bedding to sleep on.

read moreAt The Fritz, adjacent to the hospital, we offer all breed grooming for dogs and cats by appointment only. Dogs must be current with annual vaccinations against Distemper, Hepatitis, Parvo, Rabies, Bordetella and intestinal and heartworm tests. Cats must be current with vaccination against FVRCP and Rabies. Pets can be vaccinated upon entry into clinic. Occasionally a dog and often cats require sedation in order to effectively and humanely groom them. Please make such arrangements with our receptionist should it be necessary.

read moreOur hospital is well-equipped to perform many surgical procedures, from spays and neuters to more complicated orthopedic, trauma/wound care and soft tissue surgeries. In addition, we are equipped for dental procedures including cleaning and tooth extractions. Prior to surgery, each patient receives a thorough physical examination to identify any existing medical conditions that might endanger your pet's health. Because not all problems can be detected on examination, we also recommend pre-anesthetic blood testing.
