Dover Veterinarian Has Passion for Pets
Dr. Timothy Hunt recently opened the
Winichanhanat Veterinary Care in Dover, within walking distance of his home. He has been caring for and taking in animals for years. This includes Kevin, a small dog which was brought to him just a few weeks ago to be euthanized due to seizures. The dog was only 5 years old. Hunt didn't feel like it was Kevin's time to go, so he took him in as his own along with two more dogs and six cats.
Hunt has brought his passion for caring for animals to Winichanhanat Veterinary Care, which opened Sept. 1 after three months of getting the 495 Central Ave. property ready for Dover's four-legged residents. Moving into the 1,600-square-foot facility wasn't easy. Every inch of space needed to be utilized in order to make the place run. Wedged between the Metospa and Thai Cuisine it's hard to believe the property holds a waiting room, two exam rooms, an inhouse lab, a radiation room and an operating room.
