We’re hunters.
We’re sporting dog lovers.
We’ve got dog hair on our gear and dirt on our trucks.
We’re also veterinarians, and we want to help you connect with other vets like us.
Whether you’re looking for a sporting dog vet close to home or near your hunting destination, we’ve got you covered.
Hunting dog people are a finicky bunch. We want a veterinarian who listens; one who is empathic to our needs and appreciative of our culture. However, we also want a doctor who understands the medicine of working dogs and acknowledges our desire to take a hands-on approach to their care.
Even if they don’t live and breathe the world of hunting dogs the way we do, we also value veterinarians who offer services of special interest to our community, from advanced orthopedics and physical therapy to reproduction and acupuncture.
This is by no means a simple pay-to-play database. Each member of this community is accredited by our team and ranked based on their Hunt.Vet Score from our extensive vetting system. Our hope is that you will get a sense of how qualified each clinic or clinician is prior to utilizing their services. We invite you to see how it works.
Thank you for checking us out and following along.
“I like a vet who’s not afraid to get their boots muddy.”
