Hope you are feeling that holiday spirit - we certainly are!

Christmas and New Years are quickly approaching which means fireworks, celebrations, and other anxiety-filled situations for your furry family members. Please check your pet’s medications and let us know if you need a refill, or if you are interested in getting some anti-anxiety medications (as long as your pet’s annual exam is current) please let us know as soon as possible .

To make sure our team can spend some quality time with their families (both human and pet), we will have altered hours below:

Christmas Day (12/25)-Closed
New Years Day (01/01)-Closed

Thank you for trusting us with the care of your pets. We are so appreciative of each and every one of you.

12/15/2023

As many of you likely already know a new respiratory illness in dogs is causing concern for pet parents. Currently, the actual infectious agent has not been identified, and no cases have been reported by our State Veterinarian (meaning that we haven’t had a case in Alaska that we know of). This illness starts with a cough and can rapidly progress to a severe case of pneumonia requiring intensive care treatment. Some dogs have died from this illness. Not every cough is an indicator of this illness, but a rapidly progressing cough or any difficulty breathing could be.

As universities and research centers race to identify the agent and effective treatment, the best course of action we have right now is prevention. Current recommendations are to make sure that your dog is fully vaccinated for kennel cough (aka bordetella, which is a yearly vaccine), and avoid bringing your dog to high-density dog areas like dog parks, pet stores, etc. If you are traveling with a pet outside of Alaska, be sure to follow these recommendations as well. Occasionally for a high risk patient that is traveling outside of Alaska, a canine influenza vaccine is recommended as well.

If you are wondering if your dog is current with their kennel cough vaccine, or would like to get an appointment to get a booster vaccination, please give us a call at 907-694-9665 to get scheduled! If your dog has a current exam on file with us (within 1 year), then we can get them scheduled as a technician appointment, otherwise an annual exam will be required.

12/08/2023

Say hello to these adorable puppies! 🐶

Our technician Zoe was able to get her cuddle on with these adorable souls!

Did you know that starting at 8 weeks of age puppies need to start their vaccination series. Vaccinations help to protect our furry family members from many contagious illnesses as they grow. Happy vet visits also promote socialization and positive memories of being at the vet. At Ravenwood, we use many different food distractions and positive reinforcement methods to make sure that our puppy friends always have a great experience at our facility with our staff.

To make the scheduling process as smooth as possible please have your previous veterinary clinic’s name and/or phone number available. This will allow our staff to review your pets’ records before your appointment.
