As the only privately owned veterinary hospital in Burien, we are proud to do things a little differently. 🐾💖
We’ve been an active part of the Burien community since 1965, building decades of trust, familiar faces, and personalized care for generations of local pets. Being independently and woman-owned means our decisions are always made right here in our clinic—driven by heart, dedicated care, and what’s best for your furry family members, not corporate bottom lines.
Thank you for letting us care for your pets for over 60 years. We’re honored to grow right alongside this wonderful community! 🐶🐱✨

🎶 If our team had a walk-up song… what would it be?! 🎤🐾

We asked the team the very important question: What song would you want playing every time you walked into the room like a total superstar? 😂

The answers were… VERY telling. 👀🎵

From hype anthems to questionable choices, we’ve officially learned that our team has some interesting musical personalities. 😂

👇 What would YOUR walk-up song be? Tell us in the comments! 🎶🐶

💉🐶 Itchy Dog Month Spotlight: Cytopoint®

Does your dog spend more time scratching than playing? Constant itching can make it hard for dogs to relax, sleep, and enjoy life.

Cytopoint® is an injectable treatment that targets the itch associated with allergic skin disease. Instead of simply masking the symptoms, it works by blocking one of the key signals that tells your dog's body to itch.

✨ Benefits of Cytopoint may include:
🐾 Fast itch relief for many dogs
🐾 Long-lasting relief that may last 4–8 weeks
🐾 No daily pills to remember
🐾 Helps reduce scratching, licking, chewing, and biting

While Cytopoint can provide excellent itch relief, it's important to remember that itching is a symptom, not the underlying cause. Allergies, fleas, infections, and even food sensitivities can all contribute to itchy skin. Our team can help determine what's causing your dog's discomfort and create a treatment plan that's right for them.

Let's say goodbye to "resting itch face" and hello to happier, more comfortable pups! 💙🐾

If your dog can't stop scratching, give Highline Veterinary Hospital a call to learn if Cytopoint may be a good option for them.

🐶💙 Itchy Dog Month Spotlight: Meet Numelvi™!

If your dog is constantly scratching, licking, or chewing, allergies may be to blame - and they don't have to live with the itch.

Numelvi™ is a once-daily medication designed to help control itching associated with allergic skin disease in dogs. By targeting the itch, it helps many dogs feel more comfortable so they can get back to what they do best—playing, snuggling, and enjoying life.

✨ Benefits of Numelvi may include:
🐾 Relief from persistent itching
🐾 Less licking, chewing, and scratching
🐾 A simple once-daily tablet
🐾 More comfort and a better quality of life

Remember, itching is a symptom, not a diagnosis. Allergies, fleas, infections, and other skin conditions can all cause your dog to scratch. That's why it's important to work with your veterinarian to determine the underlying cause and choose the treatment that's right for your pet.

Let's help your pup trade their "resting itch face" for a happy tail wag! 💙
If your dog can't seem to stop scratching, give us a call—we're here to help.
