How do you stop a cat from scratching the carpet? Redirect the scratching; don’t punish it. Scratching is natural: it keeps claws healthy, marks territory, and stretches muscles.
– Offer a better place to scratch. Put sturdy sisal posts or cardboard scratchers right next to your cat’s favorite carpet spots. Choose a post that’s stable and tall enough for a full stretch.
– Protect problem areas. Doorways, rugs, and carpet edges are common targets. Cover them with secure mats, carpet protectors, or double-sided tape.
– Reward good scratching habits. When your cat starts on the carpet, gently guide them to a scratcher. Reward them right away with treats or praise.
Is the scratching new, excessive, or not stopping even with consistent training? Talk to your local CityVet veterinarian! It can sometimes point to stress, anxiety, or another underlying issue.

Whether it’s a quick trip to the park or a weekend road trip, your dog deserves the same protection you do. A few simple steps can make every ride safer:
– Use a harness, never a collar. A collar puts all the force on your dog’s neck. A well-fitted harness spreads it across the chest.
– Choose a crash-tested restraint. Look for a harness or carrier certified by the Center for Pet Safety.
– Keep your dog in the back seat. Front airbags are designed for adult humans and can seriously injure a pet.
New to car restraints? Start with short drives so your dog gets used to the gear before your next big adventure.

Which fall plants are toxic to dogs and cats?
Fall decor is fun, but some seasonal plants can make pets sick. Here are six to watch for:
– Pumpkins & gourds: Fresh, plain pumpkin is generally safe, but mold on a rotting pumpkin can be toxic.
– Oak leaves & acorns: They contain tannins that can cause vomiting and diarrhea. Acorns can also be a choking or blockage risk.
– Autumn crocus: Every part of the plant is toxic and can cause severe illness.
– Tulips: All parts are toxic, and the bulbs are the most dangerous.
– Chrysanthemums (mums): The flowers, leaves and stems can cause drooling, vomiting and skin irritation.
– Lilies: Every part of a true lily, including the pollen and vase water, can cause kidney failure in cats.
What should you do if your pet eats a toxic plant? Don’t wait for symptoms. Call your nearest CityVet or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center at (888) 426-4435 right away, and bring a photo of the plant if you can.

The only issue I had was after I asked a simple question about the difference between the estimate I signed and the final invoice. I wasn’t disputing the charges at all—I was simply looking for clarification, which I think is a normal question for any client to ask. While waiting, I could clearly hear the Doctor discussing me from another area with other people. Being able to hear that conversation felt really unprofessional and uncomfortable.
Overall, the experience was good, but the lack of professionalism in that situation was off putting.

We’re honored to be voted the Best Veterinary Clinic of Keller for 2026
We’re truly honored to be voted the Best Veterinary Clinic of Keller for 2026 voted by our clients and readers of Living Magazine and even more grateful for the trust you place in us every day.
We are a local clinic in Keller, Texas proudly owned by Dr. Kelsey Daugette. Thank you for supporting our neighborhood practice and for trusting Dr. Daugette and our team with your pets’ care.
I have one pup who is currently battling cancer, and my other had a very scary albuterol toxicity incident. During such stressful and frightening moments, Dr. Daugette has gone above and beyond to care for my dogs and to support me as a worried dog mom. Even on her day off, she personally reached out to walk me through everything and help me understand what was happening. That meant more to me than I can put into words.
She and her entire team have been incredibly kind, compassionate, patient, and gentle with both of my pups. It’s clear that they genuinely care about the animals they treat, and that level of compassion makes such a difference when you’re going through something scary.
We are so incredibly grateful to have found Dr. Daugette and CityVet of Keller. I truly cannot recommend them enough. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my babies!

The veterinary technician was attentive, knowledgeable, and thorough in answering our questions. We were particularly impressed by the care and patience shown toward our new puppies. Everyone took the time to ensure that both we and our puppies felt comfortable and well cared for.
We are very pleased to have found such a compassionate and professional veterinary team, and we look forward to bringing our puppies back for their ongoing care.
Dr.Turner is one of the best veterinarians I have ever dealt with. You can feel her love of animals and that definitely makes a bad situation much better.
Scheduling an appointment was simple and fast; they listened to all of my concerns/needs before scheduling a same-week check-up for my new dog. They clearly articulated what to bring (medical records, etc.) for the visit, and they were very patient with my pre-appointment questions.
On check-up day, everyone (from the front desk to the exam room) treated my dog with care and compassion. He’s still figuring out the world and gets anxious in new situations, so their patience really put him at ease. He received plenty of treats and love to keep him calm, even during uncomfortable procedures.
Dr. Turner was phenomenal! I asked if I could be in the room with my dog during exams–to alleviate his separation anxiety and keep him calm–and she graciously agreed, no questions asked. She communicated clearly during the exams, and she answered the myriad questions I posed about my dog’s health and care. She is a very knowledgeable veterinarian and a wonderful person.

After nearly a year of struggling with skin allergies, my golden is finally making real progress thanks to the comprehensive and thoughtful care he received. Dr. Hannah is incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and thorough. She took the time to explain everything and made sure I felt comfortable with his care.
The biggest sign of trust was that Goose didn’t even want to leave the office! That says everything about how comfortable and safe he felt with the staff.
I’m so thankful we found this practice and that he’s now part of their wellness program. The care here is exceptional, and the pricing is very fair for the level of personalized attention.
And this happy face after his appointment says it all! 💛🐾

How do you stop a cat from scratching the carpet? Redirect the scratching; don’t punish it. Scratching is natural: it keeps claws healthy, marks territory, and stretches muscles.
– Offer a better place to scratch. Put sturdy sisal posts or cardboard scratchers right next to your cat’s favorite carpet spots. Choose a post that’s stable and tall enough for a full stretch.
– Protect problem areas. Doorways, rugs, and carpet edges are common targets. Cover them with secure mats, carpet protectors, or double-sided tape.
– Reward good scratching habits. When your cat starts on the carpet, gently guide them to a scratcher. Reward them right away with treats or praise.
Is the scratching new, excessive, or not stopping even with consistent training? Talk to your local CityVet veterinarian! It can sometimes point to stress, anxiety, or another underlying issue.

Whether it’s a quick trip to the park or a weekend road trip, your dog deserves the same protection you do. A few simple steps can make every ride safer:
– Use a harness, never a collar. A collar puts all the force on your dog’s neck. A well-fitted harness spreads it across the chest.
– Choose a crash-tested restraint. Look for a harness or carrier certified by the Center for Pet Safety.
– Keep your dog in the back seat. Front airbags are designed for adult humans and can seriously injure a pet.
New to car restraints? Start with short drives so your dog gets used to the gear before your next big adventure.
Find more tips for picking the right dog seat belt in our latest blog at the link in our bio!

Which fall plants are toxic to dogs and cats?
Fall decor is fun, but some seasonal plants can make pets sick. Here are six to watch for:
– Pumpkins & gourds: Fresh, plain pumpkin is generally safe, but mold on a rotting pumpkin can be toxic.
– Oak leaves & acorns: They contain tannins that can cause vomiting and diarrhea. Acorns can also be a choking or blockage risk.
– Autumn crocus: Every part of the plant is toxic and can cause severe illness.
– Tulips: All parts are toxic, and the bulbs are the most dangerous.
– Chrysanthemums (mums): The flowers, leaves and stems can cause drooling, vomiting and skin irritation.
– Lilies: Every part of a true lily, including the pollen and vase water, can cause kidney failure in cats.
What should you do if your pet eats a toxic plant? Don’t wait for symptoms. Call your nearest CityVet or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center at (888) 426-4435 right away, and bring a photo of the plant if you can.

What struck me was how the entire available team came together to assist this pup in locating its family. After scanning the microchip, they reached out to the registered owner, only to discover that the dog had been rehomed multiple times. The team went above and beyond by contacting each potential lead in hopes of reuniting the dog with its rightful family. Throughout this process, they also took photos to help with posting the dog online and assisted me in finding an available shelter as a backup option.
I am happy to report that after all their efforts, the owner was found. The team could have easily given up, but they truly went the extra mile, resulting in a reunion between the family and their beloved baby.
Thank you all for your outstanding service;, you are truly amazing. I also want to mention that my own dog used to visit this location before we moved pretty far away, and the quality of service has always remained consistently excellent. Thanks guys, this whole team deserves major praise!
Your technology sucks
Based what I pay , you can get your technology working and not waste my valuable time. Thank you
He enjoyed his time with her and I’m enjoying the less shedding 😉.
He’s now home enjoying his bully stick treat from my visit today to the Dallas Farmer’s market while he got groomed. It was a Win WIN!

Dr. Dunn diagnosed a tumor (twice dismissed by another vet) as suspicious and suggested removal…great call as that tumor was cancer. Dr. Dunn did an expert job with the surgery. My buddy is doing great (cancer free!) and doesn’t even have a scar…AND he still LOVES to go visit Dr. Dunn!
Dr. Beach worked with our elderly dog to diagnose arthritis. We brought our old girl in to see Dr. Beach because her back legs had stopped working and she couldn’t walk. Dr. Beach adeptly determined that it wasn’t that her legs wouldn’t work but that she was in too much pain to walk. Dr. Beach’s prescription for two medications immediately fixed the problem and our old girl has been back on her feet for 10 months now with no issues!
These vets are top notch! If you want great care for your fur babies, go to City Vet!
In closing out our Staff Appreciation Week (National Veterinary Technician Appreciation Week), we recognize two terrific teammates Miranda Mayfield and Amanda Brookins.
Miranda has been with the CityVet Flower Mound Team since 2025 starting as an Animal Care Attendant. She was quickly promoted to Lead Animal Care Attendant and now Veterinary Assistant. Miranda has trained, learned and grown by her willingness to help others as well as herself. She is always willing to step in whenever help is needed & can easily handle any fractious cat (this is huge)!
Amanda (pictured with her dog Rae & kitten Steve stickers) has been with CV Flower Mound for almost 5 years and started as a Customer Service Specialist. She is now our Lead Customer Service Specialist and plays a vital role in the hospital operating smoothly & efficiently. Amanda enjoys working with clients to ensure their pets stay happy and healthy.
Thanks for all you do Amanda & Miranda! We appreciate you both so much! 🐾❤

Madison loves being the voice for the creatures that don’t have their own voice. It also makes her happy to be a safe person for animals.
Maddie loves working at City Vet because it’s where she first learned and fell in love with veterinary medicine. Dr. Beach, too. She is one of the best vets Maddies ever worked for in the past 8 years!
We’re glad you’re back and thanks for all you do!
