Newtown Vet is a comprehensive small animal practice dedicated to improving the quality of life for all pets by offering the highest quality medical, anesthetic, dental, surgical, and rehabilitative care, customized to suit the unique needs of each patient. We also strive to educate our clients about responsible pet ownership and by doing so, create a healthier, happier community of pets. Although our typical patients are dogs and cats, we do provide select care for a variety of other companion animals, including rabbits, birds, and even pot-bellied pigs!

Our care extends beyond the routine and the expected. Although Newtown Vet is not a specialty hospital, our team of doctors can offer a wide array of experience and skills, which allows Newtown Vet to offer many advanced procedures not commonly found in general practice. At Newtown Vet, you’ll find the family feel of a small, privately-owned hospital combined with the expertise and superior care typically found only in large-scale specialty practices.

Newtown Vet surgical protocol includes dedicating an experienced veterinary technician solely to monitoring anesthesia, ensuring that every single patient undergoes surgery with minimal risk. Our post-operative care options include rehabilitative therapies like acupuncture, laser treatments, PEMF therapy, and therapeutic exercise and massage. Pain management is of the utmost importance and we do our best to provide a comfortable, complete care experience for both our patients and their owners.

In addition to providing the highest quality medical care, Newtown Vet doctors and staff work closely with pet-owners so they can provide the best at-home care, too. By educating our community and the general public about responsible pet ownership, we hope to improve the quality of life and treatment for all animals, not just those that come into our care.

We are also the official vet of the Trenton Thunder Bat Dogs!

Awesome Pet Products

Brewscuits

Brewscuits® beer grain dog bones began in May of 2013 in Telford, PA when our dog Tiki stole some spent beer grains off our picnic table that were meant to go to the compost bin. We are home brewers and with the left-over grains we created Brewscuits®.

One weekend we brewed a batch of beer and when we were finished we took the spent grains outside and put them on the picnic table to go to the compost bin. We forgot about the grains and let our dogs outside and Tiki stole the grains off the table pulled them onto the patio and shared them with all the other dogs.

Brewscuits® contain only four ingredients spent beer grain, egg, flour, and either peanut butter, pumpkin or sweet potato. We use local farm fresh eggs, local peanut butter and local grown pumpkin and sweet potato. Brewscuits® contain no sugar, salt, additives or preservatives. And keep your eye out for new flavors!

Since we foster, rescue and take care of military family dogs it gets a little crazy in our household. Creating Brewscuits® allowed us to provide our dogs with something nutritionally sound and also up cycle a product that would normally be discarded. We work with local breweries and craft Brewscuits from their spent grain. We bring the grain back to the bakery and process it into dough to make Brewscuits®.

Get dressed up, catch up with old doggie friends and meet new ones, and raise even more money for Sam’s Hope, which is based right here in Wyndmoor.
