Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
We have some exciting news here at Sunrise Side, a few weeks ago we surprised Dr King with a new clinic friend!
His name is Beardie and he is 5 years old.
He loves to soak in his pool, sunbathe, and try to break free of his new house in search of extra snacks!
Make sure to stop by on your way to an exam room and say hi !

Happy Howlween!!! We hope everyone has a safe and fun time tomorrow.

I would like to give a shout out to all of the veterinary technicians out there. Happy Veterinary Technicians week. Thank you for your sacrifice and all that you do. You are our first line of defense, you take the verbal beatings from clients and physical beating from pets. You work late and through lunches. You are the heart of veterinary medicine and we are so grateful to have you in our lives. A special thanks to our superstar techs at Sunrise Side Veterinary Hospital Nichelle Bellinger, Judy Righetti, Sami Leslie, Michelle Timmins, and Amber Hall. You guys are the best.

Hi, my name is Kee Kee I am 9 years young and spayed. I’ve been living in a veterinary clinic since my mom passed away… about six months now. :( My sister was adopted a couple months ago so it’s just me now, alone and longing for that extra special attention.
Would you please consider taking me and giving me the love my mom always wanted for me ?
Please call our office to meet this sweet girl, it breaks our heart that she is still here when she could be making someone so happy.

There are many emergencies that can happen with our furry friends, but there is one condition that overshadows most. It is called Gastric Dilatation Volvulus, or as most know it, bloat.
Unfortunately, Buddy Barrett, presented to us with the tell tale signs: distended abdomen, trying to vomit unsuccessfully, hunched back, and distressed/panting.
Dr. Lesko ordered an abdominal radiograph immediately, you can see the “double bubble” in the abdomen. The double bubble is his stomach that has essentially flipped on itself and twisted in the middle.
Buddy was immediately taken in for a life saving emergency surgery. Many dogs with this condition won’t even make it to surgery before passing due to how fast this condition progresses. If it wasn’t for Buddy’s family paying close attention and taking prompt action he likely would not be with us today.
We are happy to report that even with many odds against him, Buddy made it through surgery and is happily at home recovering.
Buddy’s family didn’t know if they would be saying goodbye forever when they left him with us the other day. He was such a fighter and being able to see him reunite with mom was priceless!

How can you prevent bloat ?
2-3 Smaller meals throughout the day instead of larger meals
Using a slow feeder
Not allowing your pet to chug water, especially after eating
No exercise for 1-2 hours after a meal
Preventative Gastropexy : suturing the stomach to the abdominal wall to help prevent it from flipping (this can even be done with a routine spay/neuter )

Donna Schneider’s Baylee came in for surgery last week. You would have thought he was dropped off to be our very own therapy dog! He gave hugs to every person he met and wouldn’t stop until the love was returned! He made our day so much brighter.
Does anyone else’s dog give hugs?
