Learn about dryland mushing, try it for yourself and meet a World Championship level musher!

We excited to host Annie Carrothers, who placed 3rd at the IFSS World Championship in 1-Dog Scooter this past fall with her dog Ruckus, for two special events:

Wed Aug 26, 7 pm: Annie’s Story: from starting with rescue dogs to reaching a World Championship podium, plus the basics of getting started in canicross and bikejor. The talk will be live streamed on our page for those who can’t make it in person.

Sat Aug 29, 8 am: Dryland Gathering: bring your dog (and bike) to try canicross or bikejor for yourself! We will have loaner gear, free gear checks, and experienced mushers on hand to help get your dog running.

Both presentations held at the CDMA Ron Killian Clubhouse located at 18581 Beach Lake Rd, Chugiak, AK 99567

Free and open to the public, just show up, no RSVP needed!

Never done dryland mushing before? This is the easiest way in. Bring your dog (any breed, any size canicross works for almost everyone) and see what its all about.

Vaccine pricing can be found at the top of this page as our header image, just give it a click and it will expand out for easier viewing!

WALK INS ARE CHANGING! OWNERS NEEDING EXAMS, PLEASE READ BELOW!

For all pets needing vaccinations, nail trims or microchips, feel free to keep on coming in during walk-in hours. All patients receiving monthly biological injections (cytopoint, librela, solensia) can also still come in during walk-ins as long as the medication is working well. Please remember to bring vaccination records as well!

What will be changing is folks needing more time and assistance; Allergy dogs, ear infections, hair loss, lumps, eye infections, etc.

These dogs and cats need more time with our veterinarian and often need a diagnostic service. We will currently offer appointments every 30 minutes from 11-3:00 on days we are open for walk ins and our exam charge will be $50.

These will need to be scheduled ahead of time through email ([email protected]) or Facebook Messenger.

This will ensure you have all the time you need without being rushed.

🐾💙 Big Lake friends—we’re bringing the clinic to you! 💙🐾

Access to veterinary care shouldn’t depend on zip code or income. That’s why our veterinary team is heading to Big Lake on April 16 to offer affordable, compassionate spay & neuter services for pets in our community who need it most.

This clinic is tailored for low‑income households, helping families give their pets the care they deserve—without the added financial stress. Because healthy pets mean stronger families and a healthier community 🐶🐱

Spay & neuter care helps by:
🐾 Keeping pets healthier long‑term
🏡 Preventing unwanted litters
🤝 Reducing overcrowding in shelters
💛 Creating safer, more stable animal communities

📅 April 16
📍 Big Lake
⚠️ Appointment required — availability is limited.

Please secure your spot early by clicking here: https://alaskaspca.jotform.com/team/scheduling/outreach-spayneuter-request

If you know someone in or around Big Lake who could benefit from this clinic, please share this post or tag them below 💬 Every share helps connect a pet with the care they need 🫶🐾
