Exotic & Reptile Veterinary Care
At Douglas Animal Hospital, we recognize that your exotic pets are more than animals to you; they are cherished members of your family.
Specialized Care for Exotic Pets in Osseo, MN
From the smallest gecko to the most delicate parrot, exotic pets have needs very different from dogs and cats – and finding a veterinarian who treats them can be a challenge. At Douglas Animal Hospital, exotic and reptile care has been part of who we are since 1983. Our veterinarians are experienced in the specialized handling, nutrition, and husbandry that keep exotic companions healthy, and we welcome exotic patients from Osseo, Maple Grove, Brooklyn Park, Champlin, Dayton, and the surrounding communities.
