Newark Community Healthy Pet Clinic

The Newark Community Healthy Pet Clinic is a non-profit organization whose mission is to improve the quality of life of people and animals by providing compassionate, quality veterinary preventive care visits to underserved financially disadvantaged clients’ dogs and cats in Newark, NJ.

One Sunday a month, we assemble for scheduled half hour appointments. We see dogs in the morning and cats in the afternoon. Each appointment will include history taking, physical exam, core vaccinations for Rabies, DAPP and Lepto for dogs and Rabies and FVRCP for cats if the vaccines are deemed needed at the time by the veterinary staff. A basic heartworm test for the dogs and feline leukemia/feline immunodeficiency virus test for the cats are provided. Dogs and cats are empirically dewormed and monthly heartworm preventative as well as flea and tick protection for all animals will be dispensed. Microchipping is also available. Client education regarding further care for their pets are discussed and sent home.
