ATTENTION! Moments ago we learned that Highway N will be closed affecting access to the veterinary clinic for at least this week (9/22-9/26/25). You will not be able to exit I-41 from the south (coming from Fond du Lac) at Exit 106 or gain entry to north 41 (going to Oshkosh) from N.

If you travel on I-41 to come to the clinic, you can use Exit 113 at Planeview Travel Plaza on Hwy 26 and drive south on Ridge Road to the clinic.

There may be barricades to limit traffic on Ridge Road, but we've been told by the construction crew that they are working on allowing local traffic access.

UPDATE 10:30 am 9/22/25: Because several clients have asked, you cannot drive on Hwy N to the clinic from the east and I wouldn't count on it from the west. Currently the construction is occurring at Hass Road on N, but day-by-day this could change. Best to avoid Hwy N altogether and come in from the north on Ridge Road. Google Maps updates appear accurate.

Happy Monday!

Our phones are working only intermittently this morning, sometimes dropping calls while on hold. The tech people are working on the problem, but we don't know when the problem will be resolved.

Our staff are relying on their personal cell phones to call clients back, so if you are expecting a call from us you might not recognize the number.

Email and PetDesk may be a more reliable way to communicate for now.

Thanks for your patience.

A good samaritan just stopped by the clinic with two older dogs he found in Black Wolf near Fisk Rd. One of the dogs was microchipped, but hasn't been updated since 2014! Both dogs are wearing collars, but neither have identification tags. If these may be your dogs or you know who they belong to, please give the clinic a call at 920 923 6608 to get further information!

Due to the winter storm impacting our community, our practice will be closed Wednesday, April 3.

We have already experienced snow removal problems, downed limbs, and flickering power. We expect the challenges will keep piling up with the snowfall! Plus we hope your family and our staff can stay safely at home and off the slippery country roads.

If there is an emergency, please contact BluePearl Pet Hospital at (920) 993 9193.

We look forward to seeing you when the weather passes!

Thank you and be safe!
