Pet Clinics
Mashpee Veterinary Hospital
430 Great Neck Rd. North, Mashpee; 508-477-9291. Good vets who are up to date on current diagnostics, testing, etc. They are also very nice and will give you lots of details on what’s ailing your buddy. Costs a little more for routine care than some other places, but worth it for annual exams and illnesses.

This vet is a bit more expensive than some other ones, but they are very, very good, and very cutting-edge in veterinary medicine. I believe they have some specialists as well. They tend to use nicer vaccines (e.g. cat vaccines for cats, even for rabies) and are very thorough.
