Over a year ago, the HSBR board had a vision for a vet clinic that would serve the low-income residents and animals of Fannin County. It was designed for animals who otherwise would not receive basic veterinary care. As you may or may not know, we opened our clinic about 5 months ago. Unfortunately, we did not experience anything close to the number of customers we expected to use the clinic. After changing our model to try several different strategies, we’ve decided it’s time to take a break and reassess what the clinic can and should be. 

Effective Wednesday, August 23, we’ve temporarily closed the clinic, and its support staff have been given the opportunity to move to our adoption center. I want to thank all of them for their tireless efforts to make the clinic the best it could possibly be. We also wish Dr. Grisham the best.
