“My wife Britt and I both grew up in rural northeastern North Dakota. We moved back in 2009 to raise our family and bought a veterinary practice shortly afterwards. Five years later we built a new veterinary clinic in Park River. We have a dedicated team of veterinary professionals and now a facility that matches that professionalism. This is an investment in our business as well as the future of this community and the surrounding area that we call home.”
