"Lien Animal Clinic is looking forward to sharing our clinic and profession with the community," says Dr. Tim Kraabel, Owner, Lien Animal Clinic, "You’ll get a behind the scenes look at Veterinary Medicine, a chance to tour our facility, plus watch demos on Laser Therapy, Dentistry, Laser Surgery and Ultrasound . If you have a child that is interested in Veterinary Medicine, this is an excellent opportunity for them to learn more."

"Plus, in partnership with Furry Faces Foundation, we will be offering HomeAgain Microchips and a pet ID tag, at just $25.00 for the first 25 guests," states Dr. Elizabeth Fritzler, Owner, Lien Animal Clinic. "It’s heartbreaking to have a pet go missing. However, by following this two prong approach, the chance of your pet being returned to you increases by as much as 20 times. So if you have been thinking of microchipping your pet, get here early for this great price!"

"If all of that is not enough to entice you, there will be activities galore, says Johana Beresky, Practice Manager, "There will be a teddy bear clinic; you can dress up like a Vet; photo your pet! Think you’ll get tired from all these activities? No worries, we will have complimentary food, prizes and giveaways to keep you going."

"A big thank you to Lien Animal Clinic for partnering with us and supporting our ‘Tag Your Pet, It Ain’t Graffiti’ program, exclaims Teri Ensley, of Furry Faces Foundation. "We’re looking forward to being at their open house with our new pet tag engraving machine. Even after all the $25 chips ‘n’ tags have been snatched up, you can still purchase our pet tags at just $5 - $8 and the microchips at regular price. It’s worth your peace of mind."
