About us	For over 30 years, the Tail Waggers’ name has been recognized in the community for offering assistance to animals in need. Realizing the demand for affordable services and pet food assistance, the Wellness Center became a reality in 2011 and continues to be a welcoming place for pet owners and their four-legged friends today. Tail Waggers offers affordable preventative pet care for every pet owner by appointment. The Pantry 4 Paws Pet Food Assistance program offers temporary assistance to those pet owners that have fallen on a challenging time – no animal should go to sleep hungry at night!
