OCHS Vet Clinic Wins Siuslaw Award
We are thrilled to share that our Vet Clinic won the Rookie Agent Award at the Siuslaw Awards as a new business in Florence!
While our medical team was still hard at work late into the evening during a very busy SUPER clinic, our non-medical team proudly accepted the award on their behalf and went straight back to the clinic to share the good news.
We are so proud of our veterinarians, volunteers, and team for the difference they are making for every animal who comes through our doors.
Thank you to everyone who supports our work and helps us continue providing exceptional care!

Samosa is a small-breed puppy with a big personality! Expected to weigh less than 24 pounds when fully grown, he’s the perfect size for adventures, cuddles, and everything in between. Samosa and his siblings, known as the “Dumpling Gang,” recently arrived from California and are discovering just how much fun life in Oregon can be. Stop by the shelter or apply online to meet Samosa or one of his brothers. They can’t wait to go home with YOU!
