😶🌫️Good morning, just a heads up that we will not have a doctor on the premises until Tuesday 8/20. If you have an emergency with your pet we refer to Animal Emergency & Specialty Center, 775-851-3600 or Peak Pet Urgent Care 775-484-8400.
🐾If you'd like to get your pet's nails trimmed or a**l glands expressed, give us a call as this is the perfect time with no wait!
Dr. Elvira is now seeing appointments!
As of last Thursday she officially received her VGAL(Veterinary graduate awaiting licensure).
Although she was already a veterinarian in Ukraine, it is a lengthy process to get everything she needs to be a DVM in the US.
Congratulations Dr. Elvira! 🐾🩺
Let's see those pugs! 👀❤️
My dog last night: I gave her a small crouton, she swallowed it whole, coughed it up across the kitchen then went running over to promptly eat it again. She enjoyed every minute of it.
Ain't that the truth 😵💫
Look at that sweet face🤎
Any donation helps. She is so fortunate to be with Boxers & Buddies, they are a wonderful rescue group that does so much for the dogs they intake.

I'm pretty sure we have the cutest patients!
Giving a HUGE thank you & well wishes to Dr. Hansen as she makes the move to Sacramento. She will get to make wonderful memories with her mother & practice shelter medicine again. Many of you have met Dr. Christina Hansen when she started in November 2023 (where has the time gone?!) as one of our wonderful relief veterinarians. We are so incredibly grateful for the time & compassion she has given. We hope to keep in touch.
Good luck Dr. Christina! 💙
Happy Friday 🩷
Could this little guy be any cuter?!
Welcome to LMVH Teddy, you did great at your first vet visit. 🤎
The struggle is real, but worth it 🥰
Who else has a pup like this? 🤣
Mid-week funny 😁
Dr. Katie & her family get to enjoy some time off while in Emerald Isle, North Carolina for the next 2 weeks.
We will be having a few relief veterinarians covering for her, you may have already met 1 or 2 of them if you've been in the last couple months. 🙂
Dr. Katie will be checking call backs & rx requests when she gets a free moment, but otherwise it may take a bit longer for us to get back to you.
Have a great week & stay cool!
😎
Every dog is a good dog, in their own way. 🩵💚🩷💛💜❤️

An exciting update about Dr. Elvira Vovk:
We've had some questions about the status of Dr. Elvira since she and her family arrived from Ukraine last November. Many of you have met her already, as she has been working as a technician at Lone Mountain since then. Although she is already a veterinarian in Ukraine, there are several steps to complete before becoming fully licensed in the USA. During her time here, Dr. Elvira has already completed 2 of the 4 rigorous tests required. While preparing to complete the final 2 sections, Dr. Elvira will be working as a Veterinary Graduate Attempting Licensure (VGAL) alongside Dr. Katie. This means she may practice as a veterinarian while also studying to take the exams that remain. Dr. Elvira has a particular interest in dermatology and allergy cases, so look to her for best recommendations on skin care, help for the itchy pet, help with parasites or pesky foxtails. Her calm, compassionate demeanor is sure to put your pet at ease while he/she is in her care. Appointments with Dr. Elvira will be available soon!
Just a reminder:
☀️Do not leave your pets outside, just because they have access to shade does not mean they can't get heatstroke
☀️NEVER leave your pets in a vehicle without a/c, it's sad that this still has to be a reminder to this day.
☀️Do not exercise or walk your dogs in the middle of the day. Early mornings or at night is best.
☀️Be sure your pets have access to fresh water throughout the day.
☀️"Squishy-faced" or brachycephalic breeds (Pugs, any type of Bulldogs, Boxers etc) are more prone to heatstroke since breathing is more difficult for them.
😎🩵Stay cool, have a fun & safe summer with your pets!
🌞Summer is definitely here, protect your pets against parasites!
Only a few days left for this great promotion. 🦟 🪳🪱

Beware of foxtails! 😳 We had a client call about their sweet pup who had been sneezing with occasional blood. After sedating and further inspection, Dr. Katie was able to find this foxtail deep in her snout! The best treatment for foxtails is prevention. Be sure to check your pets' whole body, but more specifically their paws, ears, eyes, mouth & nose. If left untreated foxtails can create a huge (and expensive) problem. Here is a short article with more information from UC Davis. https://healthtopics.vetmed.ucdavis.edu/health-topics/foxtails
How adorable is little Eggnog from Nevada Boxer Rescue !? He came in for his neuter yesterday & won everybody's heart. If you're looking for a new best friend, be sure to check them out. Www.Boxersandbuddies.com @boxers_and_buddies
Are your pets on heartworm & flea/tick prevention? There is now a product that combines both preventatives into one chewable tablet; Nexgard Plus! 💥We recommend heartworm prevention year round here in Northern Nevada. Although the numbers aren't that high as other states, we are seeing more & more positive cases in our area. Below is a video of what a heartworm looks like under a microscope. This is from a recent local patient that tested positive for heartworm. Nexgardforpets.com/nexgard-plus
Primordial Pouch: Cats are born with this sagging belly, and all cats, both male and female, have primordial pouches. Some pouches are more prominent than others. Even non-domestic big cats have them! https://www.hillspet.com/cat-care/behavior-appearance/primordial-pouch-in-cats?lightboxfired=true#
Now hiring for most positions, including DVM, LVT, veterinary assistant, veterinary receptionist, and orderly. Privately-owned, small animal veterinary hospital in Carson City, NV.
Graphic warning ⚠️ Dr. Katie, kickin' butt every day. Here she is removing a decent size rock from the stomach of a dachshund.
Nexgard Raffle winners! (Phone numbers are readable but not all of the names are, so we're sorry for any that are mispronounced😆) Also meet Jason, Dr. Katie's husband who is also the new owner of Lone Mountain Vet! We will be contacting all winners by the end of the day today.
We are excited to share our new doggy day care play yard. Big shout out to our team member Bruce. He almost single handedly installed this by himself. Great job, Bruce! We will be adding a few play items, too.
We need to shout out to our amazing team member Bruce. He took charge of this project and worked like crazy after researching the installation of fake grass. We are excited to add this option for our day care pups.
Watch closely for the pus, not related to foxtails, but we found it while in the process of looking for one.
