Collectors first challenge!

Our goal at The Vet Hobby Shop is to bring fresh inventory to our collectors. We will also keep you up to date on industry knowledge and local shows in the area!

What a wonderful addition to town!! I have two younger children you have recently shown an interest in collecting cards. Every time we have been in the shop Chris has been so welcoming. He engages in conversation, explains all the things to us, and answers any and all questions my children send to him rapid fire. Definitely will continue to recommend!!

We love visiting The Vet Hobby Shop. Even my Son and Daughter-in-law like to visit when they are in town. The Vet Hobby Shop did a great job hosting the first Card Show at Emerald Acres. Great to have a shop in town where Card Collectors can trade locally. Keep up the great work Chris and Team!
