These two sweet puppies were found in Cedar Creek area.
They are in need of a new home or foster parents!!

They’ve been to a vet and have received their first rounds of vaccines, dewormed and are flea free. The vet estimates them to be 2-3 months old. Both are males and currently weigh 10-12 pounds. Does not seem like they will stop growing anytime soon, seems likely that they will both grow to be big pups!!

If you are able to foster or welcoming these pups into your family, please message us and we can pass your information along.

Happy National Receptionist Day to our caring and loving staff!! We appreciate you so much. ❤️ We couldn’t do it without you!! ❤️

We know y’all wear many hats, more than a receptionist. You are the one who gets to know the clients. You are the first one who hears the concerned owner’s voice. You are the one who helps communicate from owner to doctor and vice versa. You are the one who helps keep everything organized. You are the first impression. You are the one who, one minute you are a receptionist and the next minute you are a technician. You are the one who catches it all. Thank you for always working so hard and serving our clients so well. We love you all!!
