Animal America in 1983. It has been a free standing and self supporting
business for over 20 years and has matured from only the boarding business
into boarding, grooming, training and pet travel.
Dr. Hodgson was involved in mixed animal practice until 1984, when he
chose to work strictly on dogs and cats. This has been his career since
that time with a 3 year break from practice while doing appraisal and
brokerage services for the veterinary profession.
Doc has always enjoyed providing animal care at the very highest level.
Whether it be his veterinary practice with a boarding kennel in Fort worth,
or his stand alone kennel, excellent care and customer service has been
his goal. His immense love of animals has always been the driving force
behind his success.
Dr. Hodgson presently resides in Colleyville with his wife Patricia.
They have 6 children and 6 grand children. He oversees the kenneling business
at Animal America. |
