FLAGSTAFF — I was in the unfortunate circumstance of having to find late night veterinary service for my dog recently. The local veterinarian in Williams was closed. I had to drive to Flagstaff to visit the AAHA accredited Canyon Pet hospital on Old Canyon Court.
The hospital has appointments available from Monday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to midnight. Urgent care is available 7 days during the same hours. You can walk-in on a first come-first served basis during these hours. You can check out their services and download forms at their web site.
Emergency care is available from midnight until 8 a.m. every day for an extra charge. A doctor is on call, so you should call ahead so they can alert the doctor that you are coming. Their phone number is 928-774-5197.
Canyon Pet Hospital is not easy to find, especially in the dark. To get to the hospital, you have to go along Butler avenue as if you are going to Warner’s Nursery. If you are coming from the direction of Sam’s Club, start looking to the left when you pass Warner’s Nursery. You need to find River Run Road—the next road past the nursery—and turn left. Drive down River Run Road in it leads to Old Canyon Court. You cannot miss the hospital. There are two veterinary services on Butler Avenue. They are not associated with the Canyon Pet Hospital.
When you arrive, remember to check the doors. Dogs are to be taken in through the door on the left and cats through the door on the right.
I went in late at night before midnight when a doctor was at the hospital. The service turned out to be quite reasonable for the service. I felt comfortable with the treatment my dog received except for the fact that I was not allowed in to the treatment area with him. They set up a follow-up appointment for a few days later. The nurse called the next day to see how Prince was doing.
If you have a late-night emergency, I can recommend the Canyon Pet Hospital with a follow-up with your regular veterinarian if required.
