Dr. Russell is a graduate of Mississippi State University College of Veterinary Medicine.
Upon graduating, Dr. Russell was offered a position at a veterinary hospital in Alabama and relocated to take that position.
For the next six years, Dr. Russell worked for several veterinary practices in the area- gaining knowledge, experience and learning about the community.
His dream and ultimate goal was to open his own veterinary clinic.
It took several years of planning, designing and building - but that dream came to life when Deerfoot Animal Clinic opened its doors in March of 1999.

Vaccinations: Pets today can live longer, healthier lives than ever before-in part because of vaccines that help protect them from deadly infectious diseases.
Over the years, vaccines have saved millions of pets and virtually eliminated some fatal diseases that were once common.
Unfortunately, many infectious diseases still pose a significant threat to dogs and cats that are unvaccinated.
Protecting your pet is our primary goal and keeping pets up-to-date on their vaccinations is how you can do your part to ensure their health.

Pets age much faster than people, especially larger breed dogs who are considered geriatric by the age of 6 (equivalent to age 42 in human years), small dogs by age 8-9 years, cats by age 7.

Fleas and ticks are a minor issue IF they are addressed immediately.
These pests can kill your dog if you allow them to reach infestation level.
Fleas and ticks spread disease, cause allergic reactions, and act as vectors in the spread of blood and intestinal parasites.
Heartworms in dogs are easy to prevent, but difficult and costly to cure.
There is no way to tell if a mosquito is infected.
That's why prevention is so important.
A heartworm is a deadly parasite that has several life stages, its preferred hosts are dogs, and it transmitted from infected dogs to uninfected dogs by mosquitoes.
