The news is everywhere about the “strange respiratory infection and coughing” that we are seeing in dogs. Here are some tips from the American Veterinary Medical Association to limit exposure. Although, we have seen it in dogs that do not go to boarding, day care, grooming etx so the latest thought is that it may be bacterial and not viral. The bottom line is, we just don’t know yet what it is nor how to best treat it etx.

What we can tell you clinically from our observations is: animals who have been vaccinated and are current on BOTH Bordatella AS WELL AS Canine Influenza vaccinations seem to get an annoying cough but are not experiencing the more serious pneumonia findings. Please make sure your dog is up-to-date on BOTH of these vaccinations! 🐾❤️🐾

As more cases of canine respiratory disease pop up throughout the U.S., we want to share a few best practices to ensure your dog stays healthy and safe this holiday season.

SHARING SAVES LIVES - you never know who is watching and may decide to adopt!!! PLEASE SHARE THE POSTS ABOUT OUR ADOPTABLES!

AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION!

So many need saving. We helped a local shelter and some community members with strays by rescuing these feline that were homeless. We have 17 looking for their forever homes/families.

We get calls everyday for more that need rescuing but we are FULL and cannot take anymore until these find forevers!! Can you help a homeless feline by bringing them into your family? They sure hope so!!!

AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION: NAIA!!

NAIA (now 8 months old) is a former ALWAYS A FRIEND adoptee (one of Lainey’s puppies named IPA). Part of the contract between ALWAYS A FRIEND and adopters is that adoptees will be returned to us if the adopter cannot keep them. When NAIA was returned to us, she was exhibiting very concerning aggressive behaviors, truth is, we could not even safely approach her (we can share the specifics of why she was demonstrating these behaviors with potential adopters - none of them seem to be her “fault”). Several days of patience, rewarding times when she showed postive behaviors, and established boundaries, and this is her now!!!

We are looking for a new forever home for her. We will be extremely selective and will only adopt her out to KNOWN adopters (well-known clients or friends/family of well-known clients and someone who has experience owning guard-dog breeds etc).

Call 302-326-1400 and leave a message with your name and phone number if you are interested in adopting NAIA and meet the criteria to be considered for adopting her. Someone from our adoption team will then contact you. Remember, NAIA deserves a dedicated owner who will give her the time and attention she deserves and we are determined to find that for her. So, if you do not meet the minimum criteria of being KNOWN to AHVC or having a KNOWN CLIENT of AHVC RECOMMEND YOU for her adoption, you will not be considered.

Yay or nay???

Absolutely awesome

It is with great sadness that we update Cai’s case. Unfortunately, he passed away early this morning. Once the object removed from his stomach dried out, it was obvious that it was “woody” and it was identified as an acorn. Acorns are toxic to dogs and can cause symptoms within hours of ingestion. However the symptoms are fairly vague (diarrhea, inappetence, just not feeling well) and toxicity can be very quick. Cai’s liver and kidney values spiked overnight and he bagan having seizures. The effects of the toxin (called tannins). Sadly, there is no antidote for acorn toxicity and the treatment is supportive care with IV fluids and symptomatic medications and mega prayers that they can overcome the toxicity.

Hopefully, telling Cai’s story can save the life of another dog. Our hearts are broken and we are so sad for his loss and the heartbreak for his family. Run freely over the rainbow bridge seeet Cai🌈🐾❤️

Cai wants to tell all of his friends a valuable lesson he learned today:

“Don’t eat nuffin that will get stuck in ya and make ya sick and have ta have surgery ta get ‘‘em out”.

Dr. Brady did emergency surgery today to remove this object that was blocking his stomach and intestines and making him very sick. Identification of the object is still being determined - stay tuned!

AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION: WALKER!❤️🐾❤️.

This handsome guy (we guesstimate to be 3-5 years old) came to us from a shelter with an injury to his back and trouble walking. Radiographs revealed a fractured and completely dislocated right ankle. With some medications and cage rest, his skin wounds have healed and his broken leg is healing. He may always walk with a bit of a limp but his ABSOLUTELY GENTLE SOUL and LOVING PERSONALITY make him the perfect pet! He loves to snuggle and rub his head on you!!
