Animal Hospital of Rowlett Hosts Talk by Veterinarian and Animal Behaviorist Amanda Florsheim titled, “After the Storms: Helping Pets Cope.”
In December of 2015, Garland and Rowlett Texas were hit by a round of devastating tornadoes that left 800 homes destroyed, 2,000 damaged and countless imprints on human and animal residents. At the Animal Hospital of Rowlett on Jan. 11, veterinarian and animal behaviorist Amanda Florsheim led a discussion titled, “After the Storms: Helping Pets Cope.”
Florsheim said after she saw the path of the tornadoes, she called the hospital owners to see how she could help. She was thrilled when they suggested a workshop to aid owners with scared pets.

Each Thursday afternoon, Dr. Downes and some interested clients travel to Christian Care Senior Retirement Living Center in Mesquite, Texas with Maggie and Max (two of our well behaved canine companions) to visit the seniors who reside there.

Caring For Pets Foundation - We Need Your Help
The Caring for Pets Foundation funds emergency, urgent, and non-elective care. These are cases where life-saving treatment or alleviation of pain and suffering is needed. Routine checkups, vaccinations, spay/neuter and other kinds of preventive care are not eligible, nor do we fund euthanasia and/or cremation under any circumstance. Dental treatment is an area in which we reserve funds for those truly difficult treatments.
Angel Tree
Over the past several years, the Animal Hospital of Rowlett has organized holiday gift drives through local schools in which we display an Angel Tree in our hospital lobby for clients and staff to purchase holiday gifts for local children in need.
2017 was our biggest year yet - purchasing gifts for 20+ children and making their holiday dreams come true. Thank you to our clients who also selected names and helped make our Angel Tree a huge success.
Our Angel Tree benefits East Dallas Family Outreach families and teen moms.
We are always looking for ways to assist the people and pets of our community!

We all enjoyed making Christmas brighter for a few special boys and girls in need.
