About us

Welcome to Happy Puppy!

Healthier Together

A Word from Dr. Ihab

As the founder of Happy Puppy, I believe that caring for pets is not just about their well-being, it’s also about enriching our own lives. Our furry, feathered, and scaly companions bring us unconditional love, joy, and even health benefits. By nurturing them, we create a bond that makes both their lives and ours better.

At Happy Puppy, my team and I are dedicated to ensuring that every pet receives the best possible care. Together, let’s create a world where our pets are happy, healthy, and loved, and in return, they’ll continue to make our lives brighter every single day.

Clinic History and Mission:

Happy Puppy began with a simple yet powerful dream: to give every pet the care and love they deserve. Growing up surrounded by animals, I cherished the joy they brought to my life. But when I tragically lost one of my pets due to improper diagnosis and treatment, I knew I had to make a difference.

History

Fueled by this purpose, I pursued veterinary medicine at the Lebanese University in Beirut, dedicating myself to learning how to safeguard the well-being of all pets. In August 2015, I opened my first clinic, a cozy 85 m² space in Zouk Mikael, where I poured my heart into caring for every little visitor. And after nearly a decade of devotion, I fulfilled a lifelong ambition in 2024 by expanding to a 480 m² state-of-the-art veterinary hospital. This new facility is more than just a clinic—it’s a sanctuary where pets receive advanced care from a team of passionate and skilled veterinarians.
