Emergency Veterinary Hospital

Animal Clinic of Rapid City was founded in 1958 and has been a mainstay in the neighborhood for more than 60 years. We treat pets and pet owners from near and far since we are the only emergency veterinary hospital in a 250-mile radius.

Our devoted and knowledgeable team members are here to look after you and your household pets. We are committed to offering high-quality animal care in the Rapid City region. We all have our own "fur babies" at home, so we understand how vital a family member your pet is. We are aware of the unique connection that pet parents have with their animals. Together, we aim to help your precious family member receive the best veterinary healthcare available. Please join our family! 

We think that our staff is the cornerstone of outstanding treatment. For everyone who works at Cornerstone Animal Clinic, our mission is to create a supportive, peaceful, stimulating, and gratifying environment. This environment will, in our opinion, inspire our staff to go above and beyond for our clients and their animal friends, exceeding their expectations one appointment at a time.

We view our clients and patients as part of our family, and by using Fear Free techniques, we are able to make each pet's visit to our hospital as comfortable as possible. We strive to provide prompt, courteous service and endeavor to give our patients the most cutting-edge, high-quality care available, while maintaining a compassionate environment. We commit to lifelong education, which allows us to improve the quality of care we provide.

Since 1976, the American Animal Association, or AAHA, has granted accreditation to Canyon Lake Veterinary, a full-service veterinary hospital. We pledge to give your pet high-quality veterinary treatment for the duration of its life. Our facilities and services are made to help with regular preventative care for animals of all ages, early disease detection and treatment as your pet ages, and full dental, medical, and surgical care as required over the course of your pet's lifespan.

We are eager to provide your pet with the best veterinarian care available. Our comprehensive wellness care is our specialty, and we use the most recent standards of care to keep your pet healthy both now and in the future.
