Several good quarters in a row now. The growth is solid. But the recent pet food recall could bring above normal pet owners to its clinics. The earnings should improve at least a few cents a share in the next quarter.

1. As baby boomers retire, they will have more pets.

2. Did I hear correctly that somebody paid thousands of dollars for a kidney transplant for his dog?

This dog can hunt.
Surrogate babies? The boomers are all over it!
If only we could get them to work harder at spay/neuter and the rest of the ugly underbelly of America's love affair with our four-footed friends.

WOOF is a great growth stock and under valued and under estimated by analysts. Will continue to beat expectations as it consolidates its fragmented market.

The pet industry continues to grow as more and more baby boomers become empty nesters and younger generations wait to later in life to marry. As a result, they want someone (or something) in the house that provides love and companionship. As the pet industry grows, so will VCA Antech and their chain of pet hospitals that range from basic care to specialty pet medicine. I only see continued growth for this company.

VCA Antech is effectively executing a consolidation strategy in the veterinary services market. The business has all of the advantages of health care with humans, with the added advantages that the market is more fragmented and more cash oriented (still relatively little impact from insurance companies). Even with a P/E of 30, I believe VCA Antech has the potential to double over 5 years due to its proven track record of acquiring and integrating independent veterinary practices.
