Founded in 1996, the Fox Valley Animal Referral Center was invited to Northeast Wisconsin by the primary care veterinarians of the Fox Valley and nearby communities. For over a decade, our doctors have worked as part of a team with primary care veterinarians to provide specialty care, advanced diagnostics, and around-the-clock emergency and critical care services.

In 2000 the management company Horizon Veterinary Services was founded by the owners of the referral center and several administrative and technical personnel to oversee operations of both the Fox Valley Animal Referral Center and the Green Bay Animal Emergency Center, which was established in 1999. In 2007 Emergency Vets of Central Wisconsin became an affiliated hospital and is also under the oversight of Horizon Veterinary Services. Horizon Veterinary Services also runs the Horizon School of Veterinary Assisting.

Today, our referral center has over 100 doctors, technicians, and support staff who are dedicated to the health and comfort of our patients. We continue to expand our services and to explore new ways to bring advanced veterinary care to veterinarians and pet owners in the Midwest.
