Fairfield Veterinary Hospital in Fairfield, CT is a full-service companion animal hospital. It is our commitment to provide quality veterinary care throughout the life of your pet. Services and facilities are designed to assist in routine preventive care for young, healthy pets; early detection and treatment of disease as your pet ages; and complete medical and surgical care as necessary during his or her lifetime.

 

Pet Organizations

For over 140 years, the ASPCA has worked tirelessly to end animal cruelty. From education and care to adoption and rescue, the ASPCA is making a life-changing difference for animals across America. The ASPCA works nationally to rescue animals from abuse, pass humane laws and share resources with many shelters across the country. Your support will mean so much to the animals right in your community.

The Connecticut Humane Society provides shelter, care and love to thousands of pets each year. Your support directly saves pets in our community.

Dog Groomer

The Barking Lot

Almost every client I have takes their dogs to Barking Lot for grooming.

 

Pet Store

The Natural Pet Outlet

Shop Local. Owners, Ray Arabia & Lisa Dijon are Fairfield residents and are very generous to our community. A cool thing about Natural Pet Outlet is that they have bathing stations for do-it-yourself dog baths, they do nail clipping on Mondays for $5.00, and once a month they offer discount vaccinations.

Dog Licenses

Dogs six months of age or older must be licensed before July 1st each year.  Licensing begins June 1st. Licensing fees are $8 for a spayed or neutered dog, $19 for an unaltered dog.  A $1.00 per month penalty is added to the licensing fee for dogs licensed after June 30th. Proof of spaying or neutering must be provided the first time a dog is licensed to qualify for the lower fee.
