Meet the ever regal German Shepherd Dog.

This breed was developed in 1899 by Max Von Stephanitz. They were bred as herding dogs for sheep, but have been used for many other jobs. With their intelligence and willingness to work, this breed excels at jobs from service dogs to search and rescue dogs to police and military work.
They come in a variety of colors from black, sable, and the most commonly known color: black and tan. These dogs have a desire to work and please, and their intelligence requires lots of stimulation. They can be prone to diseases such as hip dysplasia, pannus, which is a genetic eye disease, and degenerative myelopathy, so make sure you do your research on a breeder and bloodline!
These dogs can make wonderful additions to any home!

Lila Grace is a 7 year old Weimardoodle who belongs to one of our technicians, Janeen.

This spunky and sweet girl loves to chow down on lean treats and dental treats. However, beef cheek rolls are her go to favorite.

While some may not understand her favorite past time, barking, Lila feels it is essential to her day to day routine. From a car driving down the road, to the neighbor across the street minding their own business in their yard, everyone and everything needs to hear Lila's opinion.
Lila passed her Canine Good Citizen test at 2 years old and recently became a therapy dog and serves as a Caring Canine for Unity Point. This sweet girl loves all the pets and attention!

Maine C**n cats are probably one of the most recognizable and beautiful cat breeds. These cats are easy to distinguish with their long bushy tails, long ear tufts, striking markings, and the bold "M" on their forehead. These cats have a slow growth rate and don't reach their full size until around 3-5 years of age. They are often polydactyl (meaning they have more toes than the average kitty) which makes their paws snowshoe like.
Did you know Maine C**ns are waterproof?! They have a topcoat that helps protect them from wet climates! There are over 75 color and pattern combinations of Maine C**n cats. These cats are very friendly, very active, love to play, and are gentle giants. They are the largest of domesticated cat breeds!

Reminder to keep your kiddos indoors today. Paws and ear tips are prone to frostbite. Short potty breaks only are safest. 🥶🥶🥶

This cool doggo belongs to one of our Veterinary Technicians, Kaitlyn.

Sage is a 3 1/2 year old German Shepherd who has some serious book smarts, but her street smarts could use some work. Sage will do just about anything for a turkey stick or some peanut butter. She has no concept of personal space which means her favorite activity is supervising her humans to make sure they are safe from unknown dangers. Sage is rocking her doggles because she has an auto immune disease called Pannus that affects her eyes. UV light can make the condition worse so she's learning how to wear these cool specs!

This week we are going to focus on and learn about Doodles. From Goldendoodles and Maltipoos to Aussiedoodles and Bernadoodles, the doodle crosses are becoming a highly sought after cross breed of dog. Here are a couple things to remember if you are thinking of adding a doodle to your home:
Doodles are not purebred. They are a cross between two breeds. You often get the personality of the dog the poodle is crossed with. This means that doodles such as aussiedoodles may tend to act more like an aussie, or goldendoodles may act more like a golden than their poodle counterpart. Always keep this in mind when deciding which type of doodle you may want to add to your home.
Most doodles require regular grooming appointments to ensure they don't end up getting matted and to maintain coat health. Their coats can vary from very curly to wavy to wiry. Schedule regular grooming appointments to keep your doodles haircoat healthy.
Do your research for a reputable breeder to ensure your puppy isn't coming from a puppy mill as doodles are the #1 puppy mill dog right now. Request to see the parents on site and keep your eyes peeled for any red flags! Doodles can be a fun and adorable addition to your family as long as you're prepared for their varying needs and personalities.
