About Pender Veterinary Clinic
   Welcome to Pender Veterinary Centre, where we believe that the best way to ensure that your pets live long, healthy and happy lives is through regular preventative care and skilled, timely medical intervention when they’re injured or sick. And at Pender, we have more than 30 years experience providing the best of both.

Conveniently located next to the Fair Oaks Mall, Pender is always proud to introduce to new clients the power of experience. A full-service hospital, Pender provides a broad spectrum of advanced care, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We’re constantly integrating the latest technologies, including laser surgery, ultrasound and endoscopy into our practice. We operate a modern full-service, in-house lab and pharmacy as well.

Whether your pet needs a routine annual wellness exam or spinal surgery; vaccinations or dental cleaning; toe nail trimming or emergency poisoning recovery, we want to be your first choice for quality veterinary care. Please call or drop by to discuss any or all of your pets’ needs or just stop by for a quick tour of our facility.

Services Pender Veterinary Centre has been serving the Northern Virginia area since 1971, and our hospital has expanded to meet the area’s growing needs. Our doctors have a variety of interests including internal medicine, cardiology, ophthalmology, and dermatology and allergy treatment; geriatric and reproductive medicine; orthopedics, surgery, laser surgery, ultrasonography and endoscopy. The diverse interests of this group allow them to consult with each other about your pet’s health and provide a higher quality of medicine at no extra cost to you. We also offer state-of-the-art dental care, ranging from routine cleaning of your pet’s teeth to extensive dental work including extractions, dental x-rays, and root canals.

With modern facilities and state-of-the-art equipment, Pender Veterinary Centre strives to be on the cutting edge of veterinary medicine, while still providing the individual attention each animal and owner deserves. Committed to higher standard of care, Pender Veterinary Centre offers an array of services for companion animals, including:

  • Preventative Care
  • Radiography
  • Ultrasound
  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Laser Surgery
  • Dentistry
  • In-House Laboratory
    Pender also offers boarding facilities for cats, small dogs and any animal requiring special veterinary care. We also offer a “drop off” service that allows you to leave your pet with us for the day to be examined by a doctor while you are at work or out running errands. You can discuss the results of your pet’s exam either by phone or when you pick your pet up later that day.

    Like humans, the more dogs are taught, the more they will learn. After one six or eight week course of obedience, you will experience a dramatic transformation in your relationship with your dog. To ensure that this change becomes a permanent part of your life and your dog’s life, you must continue to build on the foundation you have laid.

    Pender Veterinary Centre offers two levels of obedience classes, Puppy Kindergarten and Basic Obedience. These classes are taught by experienced instructors and are held in our indoor obedience room on the second floor of the Pender building.

    Puppy Kindergarten
    This class is designed for puppies from 9 weeks up to 4 ½ months old. In the Puppy Kindergarten class, you will examine the emotional development of the dog and establishment of the human-canine bond. This class will cover important topics such as housebreaking, crate training, chewing and mouthing, and grooming. You will learn how to assist your puppy’s development into a calm, confident dog who can be handled comfortably by you, the groomer, and the veterinarian. You will also learn how to begin teaching your puppy basic commands such as heel, sit, down, stand, stay, come, and off.

    The classes are one hour long and are held once a week for six weeks. The cost of the Puppy Kindergarten class is $150.00 and preregistration is required.

    Basic Obedience
    Basic Obedience classes are designed for dogs 4 ½ months and older with no prior training. During Basic Obedience, you will learn how to teach your dog basic commands, including heel, sit, stay, down, come, and stand. You and your dog will learn how to walk comfortably through crowds, and how to encounter human and canine strangers. Your dog will also learn to be handled comfortably by you, as well as by groomers and veterinarians. This class is also recommended for Puppy Kindergarten graduates.

    The classes are one hour long and are held once a week for eight weeks. The cost of the Basic Obedience class is $175.00 and preregistration is required.

    To register for a class, complete and sign the form. Attach your check, payable to Pender Veterinary Centre, Ltd., and mail it to 4001 Legato Road, Fairfax, VA 22033, or drop it off at the hospital during business hours. For more information, contact Lori Ankers at 703-654-3114.

Training will focus on a child’s correct response to a strange dog. Tours are scheduled Monday through Friday. Please call to make arrangements.

    We recently had our Boston Terrier spayed at Pender. Dr. Voell and the entire staff was extremely thoughtful and caring. He took the time to answer our all of our questions and explained the procedure completely. The overnight staff even answered the phone at 3AM to give us an update on Parker. I recommend Pender and Dr Voell when choosing a new vet.
