Second Vet Visit for Our Husky Crew!
Back to where it all began! Our litter of Husky pups that were born at the clinic returned for their second checkup. The staff were thrilled to see how much they've grown - still just as fluffy, curious, and full of personality. Everyone's healthy and thriving! 🐺

It's been a busy few weeks here at Petfirst Leeston, but we wouldn't have it any other way! Helping your furry friends stay happy and healthy is what we love most. Wishing everyone (two-legged and four-legged alike) a fantastic and relaxing weekend! 🐾💙
