The Connersville Veterinary Clinic was established in 1959 by Dr. Wilfred C. Jackson. At this time it was located at 307 East Fifth Street. In 1970 Dr. Duane L. Keaffaber purchased the Connersville Veterinary Clinic. In 1981 he relocated the practice to its current location. In May of 1995 the practice changed from Mixed animal to Small animal. In September of that same year an expansion was built onto our Clinic to improve our Boarding Facility.
A couple years ago we went through another remodel. Our new facility has six Examination Rooms, a Comfort Room, a Cat Boarding Room, an Isolation Center, as well as the existing Kennels. Our Treatment Area was upgraded at this time as well to allow for more efficient treatment of our patients.

Heartworm disease has been reported in all 50 states.
It takes roughly seven months, once your pet is bitten by an infected mosquito, for the larvae to mature into adult Heartworms.
They then lodge into the heart, lungs, and surrounding blood vessels and begin reproducing.
These adult heartworms can actually grow in size to about 12 inches in length.
They can live for about 6 years and your pet can have as many as 250 heartworms in its system at once.
Once your pet has tested Negative for Heartworm you are able to purchase a preventative.

Fleas are not just a simple nuisance.
These vile creatures can actually be deadly, especially to younger or smaller pets.
The flea is not specific when it comes to a host.
It has been known to kill a dairy calf through heavy infestation.
We have noticed that not many people realize that fleas can be deadly until it is too late.
This is one condition that can be brought on by fleas.
This is very common in smaller pets and pets that are younger.
Just because your pet isnt scratching DOES NOT mean that they dont have fleas.

Diabetes in your cat or dog is caused by the lack of the hormone Insulin, or an inadequate response to Insulin.
After your cat or dog eats, its digestive system breaks down the food into components.
One of these components is Glucose.
When a cat or dog does not produce Insulin, or utilize it normally, their blood sugar can elevate.
Just like humans, your pet can have either Type 1 Diabetes or Type 2 Diabetes.
Type 1 is when your pet does not produce enough Insulin.
Type 2 is when there is impaired Insulin production or an inadequate response to the Insulin Hormone.
