Yesterday, to celebrate National Veterinary Technician week we surprised the team with a visit from Swartz Farm and their amazing animals! It was so much fun, and a great way to relieve some stress and just enjoy petting and loving some furry friends.

Client asks- Why do you guys always want my pet's p**p?
Answer - Because in our area especially, there are many intestinal parasites and bacteria that can affect your pet's health. Many times clients aren't seeing the clinical signs when we receive positive results, however if left untreated, pets will begin to experience GI issues, such as vomiting, diarrhea, and even bloody stools. Some parasites can cause intestinal scarring which can lead to chronic conditions.
The goal? To ensure we are doing everything we can to help you keep your pets happy and healthy, and part of your family for a very long time.

We are under a heat advisory. Please leave pets home when running errands or planning outdoor activities like hiking.

Heat records have been crumbling this summer in the U.S., creating dangerous conditions for those exerting themselves outside. When the body gets overheated, it struggles to perform basic functions.
