1. Acknowledgment of Risks

I, the undersigned, understand that veterinary care involves certain risks, including but not limited to, anesthesia complications, reactions to medications, and unpredictable medical outcomes. I acknowledge that I am aware of these risks and have had the opportunity to ask questions regarding them.

2. Release of Liability

I agree to release and hold harmless Happy Tails Holistic Veterinary Care, its veterinarians, staff, and affiliates, from any and all liability, claims, damages, and losses related to the care and treatment of my pet.

3. Consent to Treatment

I authorize the veterinarians and staff at Happy Tails Holistic Veterinary Care to provide medical care, including diagnostic procedures, surgeries, and any necessary treatments for my pet. I understand Happy Tails Holistic Veterinary Care has trained staff to restrain my pet(s). If my pet is overly anxious or fractious, I understand that medications (oral or injectable) may be suggested to calm my pet(s) for treatment plans to be performed. Estimates will be provided prior to recommended treatment.

4. Refills

Please note that refill requests may take up to 48-72 business hours to be submitted, approved by the DVM and filled by the technician. All patients must have been seen within 6-12 months for recurring medication refills depending on their condition.

5. Technician Appointments

I understand that if I have a technician appointment my pet(s) will be taken to the treatment area and then retumed to me in the lobby. Technicians are not able to diagnose or treat an illness, as this would have to become a DVM exam.
