Meet Maddie! She came to us with a serious condition called pyometra—a dangerous uterine infection often seen in older, intact female dogs and cats. This life-threatening infection can cause symptoms like:
• Bloody or yellow/green vaginal discharge
• Lethargy
• Loss of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea
• Excessive thirst and urination

Although pyometra starts in the uterus, it can quickly affect the entire body, leading to a life-threatening situation. Immediate emergency treatment is crucial, followed by an ovariohysterectomy (spay).

Thankfully, Maddie underwent surgery and is now recovering beautifully, back to her adorable self! 💕

🎉 New Year, New Marty! 🎉

As 2025 kicks off, Marty decided to make a big change. He went in for the big snip and now his “balls” have officially dropped… and stayed there.

Here’s to a new year of calmer days, less chaos, and no more “bouncing” distractions. 🐾

Meet Bronco, who came to us feeling sick, and we quickly discovered the culprit—he ate something he shouldn’t have! After some x-rays, we found a squeaker from a toy lodged in his intestines, causing a blockage. Dr. Hobday performed surgery to remove the squeaker and 12 inches of damaged intestine, and we’re happy to say that Bronco is on the road to recovery. He’s feeling better and will be back to his playful, bubbly self in no time! 🐾
