At our hospital, caring for pets goes far beyond the walls of our building. Community outreach is one of the ways we support the people and animals who make our area such a special place. By staying involved, we help strengthen the bond between pets and their families and make high‑quality veterinary care more accessible to everyone.
We believe that informed pet owners make the best decisions for their animals. Through community events, school visits, social‑media education, and partnerships with local organizations, we share helpful information about preventive care, nutrition, safety, and responsible pet ownership. When families understand how to keep their pets healthy, the whole community benefits.
We are a proud sponsor of Steve Caporizzo’s Pet Connection. This incredible organization has helped countless animals get a second chance at life and we are so proud to be a part of it!
Community outreach gives us the chance to meet pet owners where they are—at events, in classrooms, or online. These interactions help build trust, strengthen relationships, and show families that we’re here to support them every step of the way. When people feel connected to their veterinary team, pets receive better care.
Pets play an important role in our lives, and we’re proud to contribute to a community where they can thrive. By staying active and engaged, we help promote public health, encourage preventive care, and support the well‑being of both pets and the people who love them.

This one of a kind event took place at The Animal Hospital for 10 years. With incredible support from the community, we were able to raise over $160,000 for pets in need in the community. Over 2,000 pets found their forever homes. Steve and Lisa Caporizzo suggested that we join together to create this annual event at The Animal Hospital as a way to promote pet adoption through rescue. Without their tireless work, dedication, and devotion to finding forever homes for these pets, this event could not have existed.

The Animal Hospital was lucky enough to be a part of the Earl B. Feiden and Healthy Pet Center Pet Connection Adoption Day! It was a beautiful day where local animal advocates were able to come together for a great cause. The Animal Protective Foundation of Schdy held a free microchip clinic, a handful of animals were able to meet their future families, and Pet Connection was able to raise money for the cause. Dr. Lexi and Dr. Caity were happy to answer questions for the public and even saw some of our own patients enjoying the day! We’re so happy there is such a warm, welcoming and supportive community for local pets in need.

The Animal Hospital hosted a month-long fundraiser created to raise awareness for International Homeless Animals Day. We’re above and beyond appreciative of everyone who donated to the cause! All donations went to Steve Caporizzo’s Pet Connection, in honor of his recent retirement and all he does for local animals searching for their forever home.

We at The Animal Hospital are proud to support the efforts of the Guiding Eyes for the Blind by providing veterinary care at a discounted cost for this amazing organization. One of our technicians has dedicated much of her time to becoming an incredible puppy raiser and has successfully had many puppies graduate to become guide dogs.

North Country Wild Care (NCWC), a non-profit organization of wildlife rehabbers, held their annual spring fundraiser gala. This event helps aid rehabilitators financially with expenses relating to the care of injured or orphaned wildlife, such as formula, syringes, nipples, caging, medication, and other supplies. Two of our staff members, Krystal and Karen, attended the event to support this organizations commitment in their efforts to help wildlife all year long. If you would also like to support NCWC, head to their website and make a donation.
