Lab work
Because pets cannot tell us when their kidneys are starting to struggle. Testing helps us find what an exam cannot.

Dental care
Full-mouth dental X-rays help us find the toothache your pet cannot tell you about. Then we clean and polish every tooth.

Lower prices. Not lower standards.
Our focused clinic model helps us keep prices lower. It does not mean skipping the parts that keep your pet safer and more comfortable.
Dentistry is more than making teeth prettier
We use full-mouth dental X-rays and examine below the gumline to find the painful disease pets are extremely good at hiding.
No surprises
You will know the plan and estimated cost before we proceed. For dentals, you can authorize necessary extractions within the estimate or ask us to call you first.
Why Paws & Co exists
Helping people take excellent care of their pets—without making routine care financially out of reach.
Dr. Mau founded Paws & Co around a simple belief: Green Bay families should be able to access high-quality veterinary care without routine care becoming financially out of reach. For more than a decade, he built the clinic around that purpose.
Dr. Schmidt began her career in animal shelters and high-volume, low-cost spay and neuter work, where she saw how access to preventive care can change the course of a pet’s life. After years in private practice—and watching routine veterinary care become harder for many families to afford—she found herself drawn back to those same values.
Today, we carry that purpose forward by helping people prevent disease, find problems early, and make informed decisions for their pets. Affordable care should still be excellent care: thoughtful medicine, evidence-based recommendations, clear explanations, and no shame in asking what something costs.
HOW WE PRACTICE
Straight answers. Good medicine. Thoughtful testing.
Early detection is central to how we practice. We recommend appropriate, evidence-based testing based on your pet’s age, history, exam findings, and individual risk—then explain what each test can tell us and how the result may change the plan.
1
Prevent the preventable
Vaccines, year-round heartworm prevention, and consistent flea and tick prevention protect pets from diseases that are much easier—and less expensive—to prevent than to treat.
2
Find problems before they become expensive problems
Exams, fecal testing, and bloodwork can catch disease while your pet still looks perfectly fine.
3
Explain the “why”
You should know what we are recommending, how important it is, and whether it needs to happen today.
4
Know our lane
We do a lot—but not everything. If your pet needs emergency care, advanced imaging, hospitalization, or a specialist, we will say so plainly.
Is Paws & Co the right clinic for this?
We would rather tell you clearly what we do—and what needs a different hospital—than waste your time.

Nervous pet? Tell us.
Some pets need more time, lower-stress handling, or the doggy or kitty equivalent of a stiff drink—something to take the edge off so the entire experience feels less terrifying. We do not hand out bravery awards for white-knuckling an appointment. Let us know what has helped—or absolutely has not helped—before the visit so we can make a better plan.
