Blood, Pets, and Tears

PetCalls

Q: How do you know you’re a shut-in?
A: Your pizza guy, dog, and local Jehovah’s Witnesses comprise the bulk of your social life.

Only problem: When Fido gets sick, you’re forced to venture outside your comfort zone.

Next time, instead of a trip to the vet, ring up PetCalls. Run by animal patron saint Dr. Becky Jones, the mobile veterinary service caters to northern parts of the Metroplex, such as Denton, Plano, and Frisco.

Jones’s tricked-out RV arrives at your door fully equipped to perform everything from the simple (checkups, vaccinations, microchipping) to the complex (spaying, neutering, teeth cleaning). How’d she get her big idea? The doc realized animals respond better to care and procedures in the calm of their own environments.

You know what they say: like owner, like pet.
