Pawprints

 


Pawprints is the newsletter of Knollwood Hospital for Pets, where you can find current health care information, updates, and hospital news.  Our former "snail mail" newsletter has been largely replaced by this new e-newsletter, which has more frequent articles and can be accessed any time!  Current non-referral clients will also get an expanded, first-of-the year mailed newsletter full of Knollwood news, information, and services available only to them. 

Articles excerpted from past mailed newsletters date back to 1994, and reflect Dr. Mitchell's opinions at the time the article was written.  Please remember to never utilize the advice on this website without consulting your veterinarian first (even if your vet is us!). 

Click on the links below to read excerpts of our past newsletters.  Dr. Mitchell will continue to have fresh commentary during most months of the year.
