My wife and I, and my daughter, Katie, along with the entire staff, would like to wish all our clients a Merry Christmas, and happy Hanukkah and happy holidays. We enjoy our work very much, trying to help every patient and every family. We hope your family pets are in great health and enjoying the holiday season. We remember patients that have been lost and understand the sadness in the home, and in the heart for families, who had to say goodbye this past year. We know this time of year can be extra sad. Thank you to everyone, for blessing their beautiful pet with a loving forever home and family. What a wonderful gift you have given to our four-legged friends and feathered friends. Merry Christmas!

This is Honker sporting his snow shoes after bilateral bumblefoot surgery. Bumblefoot is an infection of bacteria under the skin of the feet that is created by moist environments and traumatic skin injuries. Honker did very well with surgery and recovery. Although he is a great patient, he was like the recent weather - a little nippy! But we can’t compete with his designer shoes, so we let him do what he wants!

Not to be dramatic, but the right pet definitely won! Dr. K’s daughter, Katie, submitted her cat, Sabrina, for the “Christmas Cutie Patootie Pet Pageant” that was hosted by Mizzou vet school’s Human and Animal Bond club and she won! (Well, she tied with another cat… but we don’t talk about that).

Now we know baby Sabrina’s picture will be hard to beat, but please share some of your pets showing their holiday spirit! We would love to see some festive feathers!

We received this beautiful flower arrangement for saving Pixie’s life. We have never seen such a artistic creation of a dog out of flowers. Pixie arrived choking on a large treat. Pixie became unconscious, but we were unable to remove the treat from the back of her throat. We proceeded to use a technique of pushing the larynx (neck) under the jaw towards the nose to move the obstruction forward. We were then able to pull the blockage from the back of her throat. She was intubated, we preformed pulmonary resuscitation
and she quickly regained consciousness💕

Contact us if you have questions about unblocking airways at home.

Pixie was Lucky to have been close to the clinic!

Dr K and Dot attended the “Paw Pool Party” at Chesterfield tonight with Gracie and Libby💕 The weather was perfect! Gracie and Libby loved their playtime and especially the swimming!!! Afterwards, they enjoyed a shaved ice pup cup with chicken broth from Kiraboos!🐾
We wanted to give a shout out to “Healing Paws Therapy”and Librela treatments. Gracie has been struggling with degenerative joint disease and tendinitis and this has improved her strength, mobility and endurance to enjoy her day at the pool.💕🐾💕
