A Legacy of Compassionate Care

From lifesaving treatments to seamless collaboration with primary veterinarians, we’re dedicated to building strong bonds and safeguarding the well-being of pets.

Our Story

Established in May 1990, the Animal Emergency Clinic of Shreveport-Bossier, Inc. was founded by 24 local veterinarians who recognized the need for round-the-clock care and came together to ensure injured or ill pets in our area received prompt attention.

As the clinic evolved, it hired two full-time veterinarians to ensure consistent and reliable medical services, further enhancing its commitment to providing quality emergency care. In 2003, Dr. Jones and Dr. Welch took over as the clinic’s veterinarians.

Since then, the clinic has expanded its services, now occupying the entire building at 2421 Line Ave, and works closely with referring veterinarians to offer comprehensive care and smooth transitions when necessary.
