Dr. Charles Blonien, Jr. began his career in the heart of Dallas in an area where finding affordable veterinary care for animals was sorely needed. So when he decided to open his own practice in January 1992 in Plano, he carried with him the reminder that people care, but that cost was a factor in providing that care. Since then, through providing excellent medical care for his client’s pets, Parker Animal & Bird Clinic has become one of the best in the area. Five additional veterinarians and over 30 support staff have continued to maintain a welcoming atmosphere and service beyond compare.
Dr. B., as he is fondly referred to, grew up with your typical pets, dogs and cats, but also some very unusual ones. There was the pet cougar, Cougie, and some venomous snakes that set him on the course for exotic pets and veterinary medicine. He also enjoys orthopedic cases, and has performed thousands of orthopedic surgeries from broken limbs to luxating patellas, FHO’s, and many others.
In his spare time he enjoys his family, his wife Katie, and their children and grandchildren. He also is an avid fisherman and takes an annual vacation to Colorado for elk hunting. They have one dog, Lady, a lab mix.
