Welcome to Foothills Animal Hospital

Established in 1979, Foothills Animal Hospital has been caring for pets and their families in the Green Mountain community for more than 40 years. We are a busy, well-established small-animal practice with a strong reputation for exceptional patient and client care.

But what really makes Foothills special is our team.

We are a fun, close-knit, and well-bonded group that works hard, supports one another, and knows how to have fun along the way. We believe that a positive work environment makes a difference — for our team, our clients, and most importantly, our patients.

Come extern with us!

Heartland Veterinary Partners' Externship Program works to provide 1st-4th year veterinary students with hands-on experience and mentorship to help have them 'practice ready' by their first day in practice. 

Externships are typically 2 weeks long and Heartland will cover the cost of lodging if needed.

Length of externship is flexible & we can support your preceptorship documentation as well.
