Guest hattiepumpkin Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Hi, My mother, who has a greyhound, is going to be living in South Carolina for 4 months this winter. I don't see any vets listed for where she is going to be living--Mount Pleasant, which is right outside of Charleston. Can anyone recommend a good, grey-savvy vet in that area, and also a place to board greys in the event she needs to board Duncan? Her computer is not working, so I (a fellow grey owner, too!) am on here posting for her. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest KennelMom Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I don't know if there are too many low country folks on GT. I'm in the upstate and not really familiar with any vets in the Charleston area. Just about any vet that treats dogs should be fine to see a greyhound. Member jjing is a vet, though I think she's in the Columbia area-ish, but she may know some vets down your way...I'm sure she'll pop in if she sees this thread.

LBass Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I lived in the Charleston area for years but that was over 12 years ago now so I am not a great resource for current information. I do know that the emergency clinic there that is paired with a specialty practice is very good, as is the associated specialty practice. The vets I used were very good but their office is in Summerville and that may be more of a trek than your Mom wants to take from Mt. Pleasant. They have one of the nicest boarding facilities I have ever used. Westbury Clinic Quote Lucy with Greyhound Nate and OSH Tinker.

Yup, Jennifer is a vet and also a volunteer with WRAP, so if she doesn't check in here soon, you can go to the WRAP website, click on Rescuers, then click on South Carolina, and you'll see her information listed there (since you don't have enough posts to PM her yet). I'm in California, so I'm no help otherwise.

JJNg Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Unfortunately, I don't personally know any greyhound-experienced vets in Charleston. A friend through our group who has my girl Willow's mom is in Charleston, though, and I've PM'd her to see if she can share who she uses. Contacting GPA to see which vet they use is also a good idea. I do have a vet school classmate who is in Mount Pleasant. Don't know how much greyhound experience she has, but she's a very good vet. Dr. Marian Shuler Holladay works at Shuler Veterinary Clinic.

Guest mbfilby Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 We lived in the low country for a number of years. There is a town about an hour west of Mount Pleasant called Hampton. The Vet in that town looked after our grey and another couples' grey and he was awesome. They also boarded. Hampton Animal hospital. Dr. Cease. 1147 Elm St W Hampton, SC. Phone: 803-943-4887 This was about 6 years ago. It is possible that Dr. Cease has retired. This is not an ideal location for your mom, but may help in an emergency.
