Located north of Wellington, Loxahatchee takes its name from the Loxahatchee River. Loxahatchee was incorporated primarily to protect the area from growth, and to preserve the rural character. To this day, Loxahatchee is noted for its large lot sizes, loose land restrictions and native and exotic animal presence. Lion Country Safari park is located in Loxahatchee. Community Animal Hospital is happy to support the residents of Loxahatchee in all of their pet and animal care needs.
