Yup, she’s still here.

🌸 This gorgeous Dalmatian is Tesla. 🌸She was in a home where she guarded food and toys and fought with other dogs over them so she was put outside where she remained for a year.
What Tesla is NOT is aggressive in any way shape or form with people, or other dogs if food/toys are not involved.
Like you could go for a walk with Tesla, with your best friend and their dogs, and Tesla would be wonderful!
She has been around and lived with many other dogs. But because it is difficult to always keep toys and food separate, we want her to go to a home with no other pets.
Think of it like this, you have friends, even best friends, but are there any you wanna live with and share all your food and toys with? Nope, me neither. 😉
Tesla is a great girl, loving, and crazy soft. 😍
If you’ve thought about her but were nervous, come meet her! Or at least please share her. She’s just 3 years old and has been failed by humans, literally thrown out the door rather than trained. She deserves better! 🥰
We’re open til 6pm.

Our hearts go out to the Taylor family and Shively Animal Clinic & Hospital PSC, as they mourn the loss of 21 year old, Veterinary Technician, Trent Taylor.

On Sunday evening, Taylor was fatally shot by a client. Details are still being released, but from what has been reported, it appeared to be over a billing dispute. It is reported that Taylor was protecting his mother and his 16 year old brother, who both were also employed at the clinic, along with other staff members who were being assaulted.

The veterinary profession is in pain. Although we sincerely want what is best for your pets, and will make every effort, there are some things that we simply cannot do.
Being kind costs nothing, but being insensitive and cruel claims lives.

To the staff and clients at Shively Animal Clinic we stand with you and you are in our hearts. ❤

A big “Thank You” to Bikers for K9s! They have hearts as big as their bikes!
They not only see the financial need that some folks are having when it comes to the healthcare of their pets, they act on it.
When you see bikers out there on the road, know that they have the biggest hearts in the world!
Thank you from Dr Hover and the entire staff at the Almond Veterinary Hospital ❤️🐾❤️

**FOUND DOGS (4)** - Dansville, NY

You might recognize these 4 doggos from posts in other groups and pages as “wild dogs.” They were finally caught at the top of Dansville Hill by Stony Brook State Park on Tuesday (6/7) and are all now safe with the Hornell Area Humane Society after roaming for quite some time. The top right is a male and the other 3 are females. They are looking for ANY information on who these 4 may be, or where they may belong. If you have ANY info at all, please contact their shelter directly @ 607-324-1270. And no collars or microchips were found on the dogs. Thanks for sharing!

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT

RABIES IS REAL AND IN OUR AREA!
A few days ago we handled a situation in which a person was bitten by a young cat that had been living in the basement of a house. Some time prior to this a raccoon had gotten into the basement and fought with the cat. We were asked by the health department to euthanize the cat and submit its brain to the New York State Rabies Laboratory. The rabies test was POSITIVE.

Rabies is a virus that causes infection of the brain. Once symptoms of rabies develop the illness is considered 100% fatal to humans and other mammals. Fortunately, there is treatment for humans who have been exposed to rabies that is very effective at killing the virus before illness can develop. Common carriers of rabies in our region include bats, foxes, raccoons and skunks. PLEASE be sure your pets are up to date on the rabies vaccine. Rabies vaccination is also available for some livestock species. There are good reasons that New York State Law requires rabies vaccines for all pet dogs, cats and ferrets - even for pets who never go outside. Veterinarians administer rabies vaccines to animals and are experts in prevention of this deadly disease. Every county in New York is required to provide periodic rabies vaccine clinics free of charge. Please feel free to ask us any questions about how to keep your pets safe from rabies!

We are looking into hiring part time over the next few months as one of my college gals is headed to grad school!🐾🐾🐾

I try to work around my employees' needs and put their mental/physical health before my schedule but my ideal need right now would be a few days a week for an early shift (6 am to 11/ noonish? I have to figure that out exactly!) and or closing (1/2 pm to 7ish?). This position is mostly brushing/bathing but also rotating dogs out and around in groups, on individual walks, and feeding. Cleaning and occasionally waiting on clients also part of job description.

With summer here I have another amazing young lady who comes back from college so it might be a good time to just try a few hours a week to start to make sure you are a good fit with us and vice versa! We reevaluate after a month and see what thoughts are. This on site training is obviously paid, amount based on animal handling experience. Pm me with further questions. Email resume to [email protected] 💙💙💙
