Pet of the Week: Oreo
Happy winter-y Wednesday! Today we have the spotlight on 2 year old "Oreo"! ๐ฐโ๏ธ
Oreo's mom made him a miniature scarf to wear during his vet appointment... isn't he cute? Oreo's favorite snacks are carrots and parsnips. He has his own spot on the sofa where he watches TV with his parents, but his favorite thing to do is sit on the porch and get some outside time. Oreo wasn't a fan of the car... he much prefers snuggling at home with his mom.

Thank you for visiting us Oreo!

Happy Sunday! It is time for our Pet of the Week: Archer! โค๐ถ
Archer is a friendly and social French Bulldog. He loves all foods, but he especially likes his freeze dried turkey snacks. Archer's favorite activities are hiking, camping, and visiting the Black Sheep store. He is the cutest when he re-arranges the pillows on the sofa so he can relax. or when he finds someone's lap to snooze on. When he gets his zoomies and runs 'like a maniac' all over the house it is pretty cute too! Archer is most naughty when he keeps ringing his bells to go outside (because most of the time he just wants to find worms or something he can eat on the patio instead of a real โpottyโ break).
Here is a cute story from Archer's parents: On August 9, 2023 Archer was adopted in to his family. On July 4th, his parents found $9 at CDA Lake by the shoreline. "Whatever could I buy for $9?", they thought. "He was a bit more than $9, but the love he brings is priceless."
Happy Vet Team Appreciation Week!
Ever wondered what happens in the treatment room? Not only are the technicians and doctors caring for patients and doing diagnostic testing... they have lots of snuggle and dance breaks too! โค๐ถ๐ฑ

Happy Sunday from Buddy!
This happy pup is named after "Buddy Guy Blues" (a blues musician and guitarist๐ธ). Buddy's favorite things include playing in the garden, tug-of-war with his siblings, stealing dad's socks, and chewing on everything. Buddy's best trick is his "pray" pose for treats! He makes mom and dad annoyed when he runs outside to avoid bedtime... but it is hard to say no to that cute face! Thank you for sharing your selfies Buddy! ๐ถโค
And this is how we end a great day spent with not only our awesome clients but also our AMAZING team!
We have a double pet spotlight this week! Lily and Koda! ๐ถ๐ถ
Koda was named after Brother Bear, and Lily was named after her mom's favorite flower. Lily loves giving kisses, relaxing in the sun, playing with her lambie toy, visiting Petco, stealing her owner's shoes, and getting to eat any/all the treats! Koda enjoys going on walks, playing with his rope toys, sneaking french fries, annoying mom and dad by talking back to them, giving cute snuggles, and visiting grandma. Koda also likes doing his "best trick" where he stands up on his hind legs and begs!
Do your pets know any tricks like Koda? Comment below!
Happy Sunday! Today we are
featuring Juniper! She was named after the juniper bushes. She loves training with her mom and visiting Farragut state park. Her best trick is walking between her mom's legs, or doing a cute little trot while on walks. Her favorite toy is the giant lamb chop. Juniper loves anything that has peanut butter too! Juniper does get in trouble sometimes if she plays too rough with her brother or she doesn't come when mom calls. Thank you for sharing Juniper!

Pet of the Week: Naveen
Happy Sunday everyone! We have a sweet pup to share this week!
Introducing Miss "Naveen" ๐ถโค
I was named after the word "Beautiful", which is what Naveen means in Celtic.
My favorite activity is: in the summer, swimming in the lake and fetching my ball. In the winter, it is running around in the snow, and digging my face into the snow.
My best trick is: when my mom or dad tell me to go get my special toys, I can pick out each one they mention to me.
My favorite food is: carrots, of course! I get them for treats for being a good girl. ๐ฅ
The most annoying thing I do is: whine when my dad is drinking a cold adult drink and I can't have any.
I am the cutest when I want to cuddle on the couch next to my mommy and daddy (or my big sister)
My mom and dad get mad when: I get nosy and start looking for trash cans around the house.
My favorite place to visit is my grandmaโs house because she has a large backyard. I can run along the fence all day!

How are your pet's spending today? Let us know in the comments!
Happy Feburary! ๐ถToday we are happy to share "Cody". She may be 15 years old, but that doesn't slow her down when she visits the lake! Just look at her smile!

Codyโs full name is Cody Mad Max II. (She is named after her owner's first Australian Shepherd who was Cody Mad Max I. )
*Favorite activity: Fetch. Will fetch anything anywhere to include in the lake jumping off of a dock or diving into a snow pile. She also loves to play soccer. *Best Trick: Knows some sign language to include sitting, laying down and coming to whoever is non-verbally calling her.
*Favorite Toy: Tennis ball or a good bone.
*The most annoying thing Cody does: Being the "fun police". When other dogs are playing and running about, she will bark at them demanding they calm down.
*I am the cutest when: I am covered in fresh snow. I love the snow and look very pretty when I have snow flakes on my back and face.
*My mom and dad get mad when: I pretend like I cannot hear nor see them ๐. Ignorance is bliss. I love being outside and I hate when mom and dad tell me itโs time to come back inside.
*My favorite place to visit: Grandmas horse farm. I love running with the horses and trying to herd them.
*Weird Quirk: I donโt like being on furniture. I get too hot and I quickly want to go back on the floor.

Look at this kitten's face! Isn't he adorable? ๐ฑ
"Whiffel" the British Shorthair kitten visited the clinic yesterday for a neuter. Surgery didn't phase this little guy at all! He wanted to play with all the technicians when they would walk by. He even tried multiple times to escape his kennel so he could come out and visit with everyone! Thankfully, some playtime helped a lot! Thank you for visiting us Whiffel! โค
