🐾 Meet Tyson, Kylie, and Rita🌟

For over a decade, our Schnauzer trio has not only been cherished clients but also ambassadors of kindness and generosity. Their incredible journey with us has inspired the creation of the "3Schnauzkateers" Foundation – a beacon of hope for pets facing medical challenges when their families might need a helping hand.

This adorable trio exemplified the true essence of companionship. Each with their unique personality and quirks, they became a cherished part of our veterinary family history.

It was our privilege to witness the growth, health, and well-being of these precious Schnauzers.❤ We've shared both joyous moments and faced challenges together, always with the well-being of these furry friends at the forefront of our hearts.

Now Heidi, the newest member of the family ✨, and Tyson continue to spread love and support to pets in need with the "3Schnauzkateers" Foundation. Together, they carry on the legacy of compassion that Kylie and Rita so beautifully embodied.

Swipe left to reminisce with us! From their first puppy pics to their senior years 📷✨

📢⛑️A message from the Medical Directors📢⛑️

What is this Canine Cough that everyone is talking about? It's not COVID but we are seeing an increase in cases of canine respiratory disease in North America that can develop into a serious pneumonia.

This is one reason to ensure your dog is up to date on all their vaccines, especially if they are social or you are planning to travel.

Researchers are finding that it may not be a novel virus but instead an uptick in the Canine Infectious Respiratory Disease (CIRD) complex which consists of Bordetella, Parainfluenza, Influenza, Adenovirus, Distemper, Herpesvirus, Mycoplasma, etc.

Most of the above diseases can be vaccinated against which helps to protect your pet.

If your pet becomes sick with a cough or respiratory issue, see your veterinarian ASAP to ensure prompt treatment.
Check out https://k9illness.trupanion.com for updates and reliable information about this developing disease.

💫✨️Pet of the month November🐶🥳

Here we are again with a pet of the month nomination!

The lucky winner for November is the quirky, excitable bouncy Gus.
Gus is a 2.5year old Boston Terrier, that we met when he was just a small bundle of energy. dont worry his energy has erupted threefold even now!

Gus and his mom Kim were in recently for his annual health exam to update his yearly vaccinations. as mych as we love to see him often, he is being extremely well taken care of, so we see hum mainly for hia yearly annual health examinations.

He is a prime example of a young, healthy pup who reminds us all with furbabies, to make sure we keep up to date on all our animal’s vaccinations and health exams.

He was nominated by TWO of our receptionists Janet and Bonnie. Hopefully he will enjoy his gift, and we cannot wait to see him with his goodies
With love from VVH

😼🐾Senior Month Appreciation Story✨️🍁

Please give a big PURRwelcome to today’s senior patient and her mama. This is Lola, Lola is a beautiful 16-year-old, tri colored domestic short hair, owned by her PAWrent Natalie. Natalie and Lola have been coming to see us regularly for senior health exams and more since 2020.

Lola has an affinity of warming our hearts every time she comes in for any appointment, even when she likes to give us a verbal cautionary warning when we take her blood (as you can see in the video!), although she is quite persuasive when given her favorite TUNA flavored churrrooo though. She can be a spicy lady until given her favorite snack.

Not only has Natalie been such a caring parent to Lola since being with us, but even at her previous clinic she’s been a long standing, fantastic caretaker to Lola. Since Lola has a history of IBD, Hyperthyroid, Pancreatitis flare ups, and Osteoarthritis, she is regularly needing to be brought in for regular bloodwork and Solensia Injections. Lola even comes in for regular dental cleanings to keep her teeth healthy and pearly white.

We continue to encourage our clients and others to begin preventative care early, and keep up to date on all that is needed to keep our senior furbabies happy and healthy.
With love from everyone at VVH

🐾🍁🌟Senior Month Inspiration Story 🤓
Everyone, please say a BIG HELLO to Tyan! He is (believe it or not) a 15-and-a-half-year-old Labradoodle, and we have had the pleasure of being in his life from the beginning. He has lived through some interesting situations, like a history of ear infections because of his amazing curly hair, and having to say goodbye to a toe (yes you read right).

Thanks to all the preventative care that his family has done, including bloodwork and joint care, Tyan is thriving and continues to make all of us very happy with his smile every time we see him.

We want to take a minute to encourage all Senior Pet owners to begin preventative care early, so they can enjoy the company of their senior furbaby for a long and blissful life together.
With love from everyone at VVH ❤️
