Wednesdays are our happy day!!!

Although we absolutely LOVE surgery, we love the days we get to meet new and current patients as well as getting to know their families. We get to know what brought them to our little clinic.

Meet Cooper and Rocky, we first met Rocky last summer and mom was very worried about his anxiety at the vet clinic. Well, we worked with mom and made sure he was the first visit of the day and that we went slow with him. Today, he was back with his brother and mom had a basket muzzle on just in case. Zoie went very slow with him, feeding him a TON of treats and we covered his face with a towel and he did wonderful! He did not fight us and we quickly vaccinated and drew blood for a HW test. We cannot lie his brother Cooper probably made him feel safe 💜

Kimchi getting love from Caroline. Let is brag about Kimchi for a minute, he did WONDERFUL, he was perfect for his exam and vaccines.

Cheerio has been seeing us since he was a baby! His family has done a great job keeping him up-to-date on his vaccines and HW prevention! He looks so handsome in his fancy coat!

We had the pleasure of meeting Luna! Mom was nervous about how she was going to behave, but she did fabulous!!! She was so well behaved for her exam and shots. Mom is keeping Luna safe with a proheart shot so she does not get HW disease.

French Bulldogs are now the most popular breed in the US. Clients pay anywhere from $1500 - $8000. The average is about $3000.

While they are SUPER, SUPER CUTE, before you commit, know that they are prone to an array of medical issues.

We chose to list the top 3:

1) Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Disease (BOAS)
2) Skin Issues (allergies)
3) Intervertebral Disk Disease (Herniated Disk)

We don't want to ruin the SUPER CUTE party, but we think that If you spend this much money on a breed that struggles to breathe (French Bulldogs and English Bulldogs) then you SHOULD correct their stenotic nares and elongated soft palate. Its expensive, but correcting these issues will help your pet breathe WAY better.

You have invested so much money getting the adorable puppy that we encourage you to invest a little more to correct the issue permanently. Helping your pet use their nose and mouth to their full potential is CRITICAL!!! These guys are born with breathing problems and they can easily overheat and die.

Want to learn more about how you can correct this once and for all? Give us a call. You (and your Frenchie) will be really glad you did. Your best bud will get an opportunity to take advantage of our specific tailored protocols and get a spot in our brand new oxygen kennel specifically designed to monitor and keep pet's oxygen saturation levels high before and after surgery.

Meet Sarge, he is now breathing SO MUCH BETTER after having this procedure!

We cannot thank Southeast Veterinary Neurology for letting us borrow a CPR dummy so that our team could hone our skills and practice CPR on dogs and cats.

We also got a nice refresher course on anesthesia equipment. We cannot thank our lovely part-time Licensed Veterinary Technician, Marcie, for giving a thorough talk on these very important topics!

Having the Monday Blues???? Take a look at some of our brave patients we saw this past Friday!

Ginger Bug was being vocal about her spay we think she said, "I am EXCITED to say good-bye to my cranky heat cycles"

Joule says "I love this heated space, it's roasty-toasty"

Maple says "I have the best parents in the world, who got me this PAWSOME carrier with a hammock in it"

We feel so passionate about your pet's health and one of the easiest things to do to keep your pet living a longer healthier life is spaying/neutering your pet.

You will hear many different opinions on when is an appropriate time to spay and neuter your pet. This is a great discussion to have with your veterinarian and address any concerns you may have.

Medical benefits of spaying or neutering your pet:

1. Increases your pet's lifespan by 3-5 years.

2. Neutering your pet helps protect against testicular cancer and prostate issues.

3. Spaying your pet before their first heat cycle almost eliminates the chance of mammary cancer which occurs in 50% of intact dogs and 90% in intact cats.

4. Intact females have a 1 in 4 chance of getting a pyometra. Pyometra is an infection where the uterus is full of pus. This is an emergency and treatment of this life-threatening disease is ovariohysterectomy, which can cost you over 3000-5000 dollars.

Behavioral benefits of spaying and neutering your pet:

1. Male dogs are less likely to roam, hence reduces chances of getting hit by a car or accidentally impregnating a female.

2. Intact males are more likely to mark their territory, your dog will be less likely to mount other dogs or inanimate objects, and some aggression issues will disappear.

3. Your spayed female will not go into heat - cats can go into heat every three weeks during mating season.

Meet Yogi, Tater, and Pixie -these guys are SUPER HAPPY they got surgery today. Thank you to their families who love them!

We hoped you all enjoyed your snow day by snuggling your pets today!!!

We will be open tomorrow starting at 8 am!!! The secondary roads are pretty clean and the parking lot was finally plowed. Dr. Turner's oldest son, Aiden, spent the afternoon shoveling some parking spots before the plow guys came!

Thank you Aiden!

Well, we did our best to fit everyone in that had appointments today and tomorrow.

We have decided with the snow conditions we cannot safely come in tomorrow. We plan on being here Friday. We apologize for any inconvenience, but here is a cute FIRST BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION!!!!

Meet Valentina!!! Mom sent us these adorable pictures of her on her first birthday! We spayed this beautiful lady June of last year. She is so happy that spaying her at a young age will prevent her from ever having an accidental litter and mammary cancer 🩷

HAPPY BIRTHDAY VALENTINA!!!!!!

Meet Cosmo, he was in for his annual exam and we just love his underbite!!!

Meet Darlene, she was recently adopted from Reba's Animal Rescue and she is doing wonderful in her new home! Happy, healthy, and spayed!!!

Meet Baxter who came as a referral from their regular veterinarian, MyVet, he has a dying lower canine that needs to be extracted.

Meet Q-Tip, she is so adorable and tiny, so little Dr. Turner decided to use her sweater as a baby carrier.

Squinty eyes post-surgery high... Meet Tinkerbell...she went to the ER and they suspected a pyometra (life-threatening infection of the uterus), mom called us since we spayed her other pet and we were quickly able to fit Tinkerbell in 💜 #grantvetcare #postsedatiohigh

Post-op care is important. All of our surgery pets get a cerenia injection, which helps with nausea and vomiting that can occur with general anesthesia. Our recovery team gives our patients some food to nibble on post-op. Sparkle just got spayed and is a hungy hippo 🤩

Before

After

We would like to wish a VERY SPECIAL HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Zoie!!! Zoie has been with with GVC since day one and we would not be who we are without her. She is an integral part of our team and a true wealth of veterinary knowledge. Zoie focuses on providing an exceptional overall experience for our clients. She loves spending time with you and your pets and helping teach our clients how to best care for their pets. She especially loves building trust with timid and nervous patients so that these patients have a good and calm experience in our clinic. She is our resident cat whisperer, and cats absolutely love her. Its not uncommon to walk around a corner to find her snuggling with a happy cat. Zoie is a Florida native who does a lot more than play with kitties. She is a licensed esthetician and is currently in school full-time completing a bachelor's degree in Psychology. You won't find a more dedicated Veterinary Assistant than Zoie. She is committed to you and your pets and she loves what she does. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!

Meet Tilly, she loves getting a churu!!! Churu also known as the street name Kitty Crack!!! We want our patients to have a positive experience with usm so we break out the Churu's for our feline patients 🩷 #churukittycrack #eatwhengettingvaccines #corevaccines #fvcp #rabies

Meet Cole, he is an adorable rescue kitty from Cat Rescue Inc. He came to us with a very bad mouth and needed full mouth extractions, the foster also noticed he had a hard time moving and jumping around. Cole came by on Friday for his second Solensia injection! What is Solensia?!?!?!? Solensia is a new injection that helps with the control of osteoarthritis pain. His foster noticed a difference and he has gain a pound from his last visit. What to adopt this adorable kitty then please reach out to Cat Rescue Inc.

Happy SATURDAY!!!! Meet Spidercat!!!!
