Hometown Veterinary Hospital

Lanie joined the HVH team in 2025 and has been a valued technician from day one!
She has a unique way of connecting with and comforting our furry friends, ensuring they feel safe and loved during their visits. Lanie graduated from Crowder College obtaining her Veterinary Technology & Animal Science degree! During her time completing the Veterinary Technology Program, Lanie became CPR and Fear Free certified!
Here’s her ‘why’ for choosing Veterinary medicine as a career: “I chose Veterinary medicine to become an advocate for animals when needed as they present their symptoms differently than humans."

June is national adopt a shelter cat. Just a few of our wonderful local facilities to consider would be Watching Over Whiskers, Eden Animal Haven, and Humane Society of Southwest Missouri. We can't wait to meet your new furry family member! 😻🐾

We’re excited to see everyone at TAME Pet Mag - SW Missouri’s downtown dog days. We’ll be here from 10a-2p. Be sure to stop by and say hello! We have pupsicles! 🐕

Happy Woof Wednesday! 🐶🐾

Meet Kevin!
Kevin is a 7 year old, Anatolian Shepherd/Great Pyrenees mix.
According to Kevin's mom "he is the protector of all— while also being a 100lb lap dog." 😉❤️
He takes his job as "the protector" very seriously and enjoys barking at anything that dares to move! 😅
Kevin happily spends his time lounging in the yard, especially on a cool fall day! 🍂
