Greyhounds Knowledgable Veterinarians

We are often asked to recommend veterinarians that have experience working with greyhounds. Please don't wait until an emergency occurs before choosing a vet. Investigate the clinic beforehand and learn the route from your home to the office so that you can act quickly should the need arise. 

Vets like to see a pet first while healthy to establish "baseline" against which to measure the animal's condition when sick.

​

The list below is of veterinarians that we believe have successfully treated greyhounds and located primarily in Southern California

​

Legend: 

  • The Blue colored listings, are vets that work with GreySave on an ongoing basis to provide quality veterinary care for our foster greyhounds. These practices have a significant number of greyhound customers.

  • The Blue colored listings - in BOLD are Emergency and Specialty offices that work with GreySave to provide quality veterinary care for our foster greyhounds.

  • The black listings are veterinarians that have been referred to us by adopters who have been happy with the care their greyhounds have received. ​  

  • Note: All veterinary practices that do surgeries on greyhounds should have a supply of IV Aminocaproic Acid (Amacar) in stock. This drug is used to stop or slow down internal bleeding in greyhounds.   If the practice does not have Amacar or worse yet do not know about it and its use in greyhounds you should probably find a speciality group that uses it.  In our experience it has saved many greys from bleeding out post surgery.  Check out this link to learn more see more about greyhound bleeding and the use of Amacar  Greyhound bleeding disorder â€‹
