APAWS Veterinary Hospital- Detroit

04/10/2025

Welcome Violet, our newest patient to APAWS Veterinary Hospital- Detroit. She was rescued by our friends at Detroit Pit Crew Dog Rescue and she is currently receiving care for demodex mange which has resulted in a very serious secondary skin infection. Thankfully the prognosis for this sweet girl is very good and we can't wait to see her all healed up!💙🐾

Poor Faith was near death when she arrived at our hospital for medical care. It was touch and go but now after alot of prayers and care her prognosis is good.

We are thrilled to have been a part of Faith's journey to survival and recovery and a special thank you to our friends Detroit Pit Crew Dog Rescue and Advanced Animal Emergency for their dedication and care they provided to make Faith would survive.

It was a gut-wrenching discovery inside a home on Detroit's east side, leaving a local realtor nearly in tears, unsure of what to do next.

🐾💙CELEBRATING 3 YEARS💙🐾
Today we are so excited to be celebrating our 3 year anniversary!! It seems like yesterday that we opened our doors to provide veterinary care to local animal welfare organizations as well as to the general public. In the past 3 years we have treated and cared for over 12,000 animals at our hospital and we feel honored to be able to provide medical care to so many wonderful pets.

This journey has been nothing short of amazing and we look forward to continuing to help our community and their pets for many more years to come. 💙🐾

🐾💙MONTANA'S FUND 💙🐾
Today we had the pleasure of meeting with City Councilman Henry Yanez from Sterling Heights, Michigan, as well as representatives from our friends at Detroit Pit Crew Dog Rescue (DPC) to discuss how we can help seniors on fixed incomes with veterinary care for their beloved pets. We know that many seniors who are isolated or have very little human companionship benefit greatly from companion pets and at times these folks may struggle to provide the necessary veterinary care due to financial issues they may face. We are here to assist these residents and their pets through funding provided by DPC.

We also got to hang out with some adorable puppies rescued yesterday by DPC and we are happy to provided these pups with the veterinary care they need to live happy healthy lives.

If you are a representative of a City in Macomb County and would like to learn more about Montana's Fund and the assistance we can provide to your senior population with vetting, please email us at [email protected].

Sweet boy Maverick is getting his yearly exam, vaccines, bloodwork, heartworm test and urinalysis. He is looking sad because the scale indicated that he has gained 4lbs since last year. 😬 It's okay Maverick... we could all use a little diet after the holidays.
