New vet

[Daenerys]

Will be taking my Testudo tortoise to a new vet that deals with reptiles. The clinic is well known for its vets and ER services. I use them for my cats and dog. My tortoise needs her beak trimmed and a general look over. Dundee Animal Hospital has a few locations. Dundee, Elgin, Algonquin. These are in illinois. There may be more.
I will post after our visit next week.
