Alison Jennart, DVM

Alison Jennart DVM

Dr. Alison Jennart attended Auburn University and graduated with her D.V.M. in 2006. “I love being able to strengthen the relationship between pets and their owners. The amount of joy that we get from our pets is one of the most wonderful things we experience in life. The most useful bit of knowledge that I could give a first time pet owner would be to seek information from the veterinary professional team. There is so much information out there that can be false and misleading and can cause harm to their pets. Having a trusting solid relationship with your veterinarian can make owning a pet for the first time almost flawless. I love paddle boarding running, gardening, spending time with my family, going to museums and art festivals, and discovering all the wonderful things the Richardson area has to offer.” Dr. Jennart has Dogs: Tinley and Roxy, Cats: Percy, Henri and Beatrice and Hazel the squirrel.
