Pine Belt Veterinary Hospital and Kennel

Pine Belt Veterinary Hospital and Kennel provides dog boarding in Hattiesburg, MS, out of a full-service veterinary hospital at 7436 US Hwy 49 North. Boarding dogs stay in indoor kennels with outdoor walking areas. Because the kennel shares a building with the practice, veterinary care is on site.

What makes it different

The medical side is the real distinction. The hospital keeps an in-house pharmacy, an in-hospital surgery suite, and in-house x-ray, along with a closely supervised hospitalization area for animals that need watching. For a dog on daily medication, an older dog, or one with a condition that might flare up while its owner is out of town, that changes the calculation. The practice handles both small and large animals, so the staff sees a wide range of cases every week.
