Black history is American history, and it's a reminder that we must always learn from the past to create a better future. ✊🏽 In the early days, within a span of 59 years, only 70 African American students graduated from veterinary colleges in the US and Canada.

Today, we're working to change that. By partnering with organizations like BlackDvm Network, BLEND Vet Med, and National Association for Black Veterinarians, we’re committed to increasing representation and creating a space where everyone feels they belong. POWER, our Black Network Group, just celebrated its one-year anniversary and is growing strong! 🚀

We’re on a mission to make sure everyone feels they belong and can thrive here. And this is just one of the ways VEG is making an impact, growing, and paving the way for future VEGgies. 🚀 Let's continue breaking barriers and ensuring that veterinary medicine is a career for everyone. 🐾

⚠️ Sensitive content warning ⚠️

On 4/27/23, this pup set the record for one of the longest foreign body removals we’ve ever seen. It’s honestly a miracle they could even swallow all of this! 😱🐾

If nothing else, watch till the end for the commentary—you won’t regret it. 😂

Every day, our incredible VEGgies perform life-saving miracles like this, and we’re so proud to celebrate 11 years of going above and beyond for pets and their families. ❤️

We’re celebrating 11 years of incredible growth, but it's just the beginning... 🚀

as we throw it back to 5/8/24, and Tootie’s incredible story. ❤️🐾

This sweet pittie was rushed to our pet ER after being hit and dragged by a car. Our VEGgies stepped up, searching tirelessly for his family. When it became clear Tootie was a stray, something beautiful happened—thanks to our open concept ER, he found a loving foster home with a family who met him right here in our hospital. 🥹

It’s moments like these that define the last 11 years of compassion, care, and second chances. Thank you for being part of our journey! 🥰🎉

When cravings turn into a not-so-sweet situation, our VEGgies are here 24/7 to save the day. ❤️🐾 Thanks to quick care, this sweet friend was back on their paws in no time—and hopefully sticking to dog treats from now on!

Here’s to 11 years of being there for every unexpected emergency (even the chocolatey ones). Thank you for trusting us with your pets! 🎉

to the time we played a little prank on you... but with a very important message! 😏🙅🤮

Inducing vomiting at home is a MAJOR no-no! Certain substances can cause even more harm if your pet vomits them back up. That’s why inducing vomiting should always be done under the direct guidance of a veterinarian.

If you suspect your pet has ingested something they shouldn’t, skip the DIY remedies and come straight to VEG. We’re here to help! 🚑🐾

Common culprits:
🐶 Dogs: toys, rocks, clothing
🐱 Cats: string, hair ties, small toys

Stay safe, and always call your vet first! ❤️
