Share this story:

A 24/7-hour pet hospital will soon open its first Johnson County location.

Veterinary Emergency Group has begun construction on its new all-hours pet hospital at the Fountains Shopping Center in Overland Park.

VEG will operate at 6347 W. 119th St.

  • The emergency center will occupy a space on the eastern end of the shopping center, just off 119th Street and Lamar Avenue.
  • The space has been empty for several years, but was at one point occupied by a Flexsteel Furniture store, according to city documents.
  • VEG centers are open 24/7.

VEG offers care for all types of pets

  • The pet hospital offers a wide range of medical services, from diagnostic testing and accident wound care to emergency surgery and end-of-life care.
  • VEG offers those services to all pets “from tails to scales” — ranging from dogs and cats to birds and reptiles.
  • VEG centers are open every day, including holidays.

This marks the first VEG location in Johnson County

  • The company is headquartered in New York and has emergency clinics in several states like Texas, Florida and Colorado.
  • VEG also serves as one of several new additions to the Fountains Shopping Center in recent months.
  • The clinic neighbors the recently-opened Westlake Ace Hardware in the former Sears Home & Life space.
  • Golf retailer PGA Tour Superstore also recently opened at the shopping center, in the former Whole Foods Market space.
