Do you have any pets?
Yes, I would bet
They may be closer than a son or a daughter.
They are always right there
No matter the care.
For your affection
They just need food and water.
But when they are sick, this isn’t the trick.
“Quail Ridge Animal Hospital” is the answer.
Doctor Lesli Hewitt can do it.
With her team you’ll be seen.
No matter the rhyme or the reason.
They handle all exotic pets
Cats and dogs and all the rest.
Lions, tigers and bears ... ah ... ha ...
She treats at the “Animal Ark.”
But like “Winnie the Pooh”
She’ll know what to do.
It’s just a stroll in the park.
Their business it’s long established
Going on 11 years.
With high quality care the teamwork is there.
Of course with some laughter and tears.
They even operate on goldfish.
Nug was not very old
Dolly brought him in
They readjusted his fins.
Now, he is happy in his bowl.
Now, I think you’ll agree.
They don’t work for free.
But work for the love of all creatures.
Bring your pet here
I hope I’m quite clear
