Feature Friday! Meet Frankie, a 4 month old Catahoula Leopard mix. We saw Frankie for the last of her puppy vaccines and she was a perfect angel, and VERY into her peanut butter bribe- see the video in the comments 😂 Frankie was recently adopted from a local shelter (Helen Woodward). If you’re in the market for a puppy, PLEASE look to rescue first. Our shelters and rescues are all in crisis right now- some are nearly at double capacity with pets living in temporary crates in lobbies and hallways. You can find all types of dogs (and cats!), including purebred and puppies in need of a good home without using a breeder. Frankie says !

Bringing back Feature Friday today for this gorgeous creature! This is Nebula, and she is a purebred Maine C**n. Fortunately she’s healthy and just needed a checkup and vaccines today! On top of being beautiful, she just wanted to PLAY!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of my wonderful clients! I’m thankful for YOU, who allow me to do what I love and take care of your pets every day. I hope you all have a wonderful holiday with your friends and family. Also, a big thank you to ER vets and staff for holding down the fort today- you’re the real MVP’s and may the pancreatitis cases be kept to a minimum 🤞🏻

Feature Friday today is one of our newest patients, Diggie Smalls. Diggie is a 10 week old St. Bernard that we recently saw for his first puppy exam. Unfortunately he’s likely got entropion, a condition in which the eyelids roll in and cause irritation to the eyes. He will be seeing our favorite eye specialist next week and should be good as new after a corrective surgery. Thankfully his owners are being proactive and getting him help early which will avoid a lifetime of discomfort for him! Swipe through to see some adorable cuteness from his first visit!

This happy girl celebrated her 11th birthday today in style at her favorite place. Happy bday, Callie Brown! 🎉🥳

09/22/2023

We have a special feature Friday today, and that’s Sancho! This sweet boy has been battling aggressive cancer for a while and has defied the odds and overcome some big hurdles to still be here. He recently celebrated his 12th birthday and had a party with all his friends to celebrate. Happy b-day Sancho!! 🥳

Is anyone in the Escondido area missing a sweet cat? This guy was in my yard tonight- no chip and not neutered. He looks young (maybe a year old). He hopped the fence and ran off before I could grab him, just afraid he’s going to get eaten 😞 feel free to share!

09/11/2023

San Diego friends, please share and keep an eye out for this dog! She’s a very nervous new foster from the Animal Pad that escaped this evening in the UTC area.

UPDATE: Found safe and sound!

Thank you to my neighbors for voting to make SoCal Mobile Veterinary Care a neighborhood fave for 2023! This award is such a honor to receive and helps us to continue to grow in the community and connect with more pet owners. I truly have the best clients and appreciate each and every one of you!

08/08/2023

I’m blown away to be a finalist for the FACE Animal Hero Awards! It’s such an honor just to have been nominated, let alone to advance in something like this. Thank you all so much for your votes and please continue to support the FACE Foundation- if you are looking for an organization to support, this one does an amazing job supporting the pets and owners in need right here in San Diego. I witnessed countless of my patients’ lives saved by their grants during my time in the ER world, so that makes this an extra special honor for me to be involved in this! ❤️ 🐾

I think everybody at this point (hopefully) knows not to leave their dogs in the car even for a minute as that can lead to heatstroke extremely quickly, but sometimes this is a more easily forgotten fact! When it is hot and sunny out, the ground can burn your dog’s paws as well. A good rule of thumb to follow in the hot weather is to stick to morning or evening walks, don’t overdo it in terms of exertion or duration, and if the ground feels too hot to comfortably lay your hand on for 10 seconds, it’s too hot for your pup’s paws!

Happy 4th of July!! Keep your pets safe today, and enjoy celebrating!

07/01/2023

Happy July! We will be featuring some educational content this month created by .afterbaby, who was an ER/ICU tech for many years and knows her stuff! We’re starting with this timely reminder about the upcoming holiday. While the parades, fireworks, BBQ’s, etc are fun for us, they aren’t the best places for our pups. The best thing to do is to leave them home with light sedatives on board if they get anxious, calming music to drown out the loud noises, and comfortable place for them to rest. Have a safe and happy 4th of July! 🇱🇷🎆

Not sure if Coco’s sister is providing support for her having to wear the cone of shame or just thankful she doesn’t need one too…but if you gotta wear the cone, do it with style 😎

06/07/2023

Meet Kona, one of our new favorite puppy patients! The first picture is from her first puppy visit where she weighed in at 6.8 lbs, and today she weighed in a third of her body weight heavier, only 3 weeks later. As you can see from her other pics (her first pup cup and peanut butter treats for her shots), this girl loves to eat 😂 Shes the happiest little pup and we can’t wait to watch her grow!

05/20/2023

It’s been a minute since we’ve posted, which means things have gotten busy- thanks to you all! But we’re back today with this cutie…meet Bear, the most adorable little 9 week old floof. He’s settled right into his new home and we can’t wait to watch him grow!

05/02/2023

Please send positive thoughts to this little lady (Callie Brown) today as she heads in to surgery to have her thyroid tumor removed…she is in great hands with one of Dr. Brown’s mentors from her internship and will hopefully be home and on the road to recovery in the next 1-2 days ❤️

04/29/2023

Feature Friday time! Meet this handsome love muffin, Scout. He would like to show everyone the shaved belly he earned during his recent work up 😂 Scout was showing some signs of GI distress including vomiting, diarrhea and weight loss, and after investigation likely has inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD. He’s now on a special diet and a steroid, and happily doing much better!

04/12/2023

I got to see one of my favorite patients yesterday! This is Reagan, who is the sweetest old lady Golden but HATES going to the vet clinic. We’ve been working with her at home to manage her arthritis and weight loss, and we’re happy to report she’s showing more energy and spunkiness already! Yesterday we stopped by for a quick urgent care visit for a torn nail, and she was happy to pose and show off her giraffe bandage. Swipe through to see an adorable picture of her with her dad!

04/09/2023

Happy Easter everyone! Today’s post is a serious one, since this is something we see all too frequently around this time of year. Many people do not realize that lilies are absolutely deadly to cats- they can go into kidney failure from nibbling a leaf, licking pollen, even drinking a small amount of water a lily has been in. Often, you don’t realize they have even ingested anything because the signs of illness show up 2-3 days later, when it’s too late to save them a lot of the time. If you have a cat, save yourself the risk and just do NOT have lilies in your house at all- it’s not worth the risk, even if you think your cat will leave them alone. If you do have a cat that’s come into contact with a lily, get them to the ER IMMEDIATELY (before they become sick). They best chance they have to survive is IV fluids to prevent damage to the kidneys. Thanks as always to my brilliant colleague Julie Fischer for creating this graphic that I share every year- if we can save even one cat with this information, it’s worth it! Feel free to share!

04/01/2023

It’s been a minute since we’ve had a Feature Friday! This week’s star is Zaki. He was a little skeptical about getting his vaccine booster, but that all changed when we busted out the peanut butter 😂 Swipe through to see the action shots on this adorable little guy!

03/26/2023

Callie Brown wants to wish everyone a happy weekend! Hope you’re all out enjoying the sunshine FINALLY 🙌🏻

03/15/2023

We do a lot of “scary” things like blood draws and shots with treats and other positive reinforcement to make our visits as stress free as possible! Here you can see Dr. Brown drawing some blood from Cali’s back leg while she’s happily getting some peanut butter from mom (she didn’t even notice the poke). You know you’re doing something right when you even attract the interest of the cat 😂 Hazy wanted to make sure that she supervised and didn’t miss out on any goodies that Cali may have dropped!

03/11/2023

Dr. Brown’s first exam…circa 1985 😂

03/07/2023

We got to meet this perfect little potato Aston today for his puppy wellness exam and a vaccine…he is the sweetest baby! He just arrived at his new home 2 days ago and has already made himself right at home. Can’t wait to watch this little guy grow!

03/04/2023

Feature Friday! Meet Ellie, who is just the sweetest old lady Great Dane. We saw Ellie today for trouble getting around and found that she has significant arthritis and muscle loss. Did you know that giant breed dogs are considered seniors at only 5-6 years old? Ellie is 9, so it’s no surprise that her joints are giving her some trouble. We checked some labs and got her started on some medication to help keep her comfortable- she is otherwise a healthy girl so this should make her feel much better!

02/28/2023

It’s never a bad day when you’re getting swarmed by puppies! We visited this wild group of eight 8 week old Doberman puppies for wellness exams and their first vaccines before they headed to their new homes. Our preference is always adoption rather than breeding, but if you are going to get a puppy from a breeder make sure to only support reputable sources! You should be able to visit the place where your puppy is housed, see both parents and where they are kept, and your breeder should provide you with proof of health testing of both parents to see if they are carriers for genetic issues common in the breed. If they are churning out numerous litters a year, you see many adult dogs housed in kennels outdoors, they won’t let you see the premises, and cannot provide proof of health testing and vet care- RUN! Those are all signs of poor breeding/puppy mills. Fortunately, this group is owned by a veterinary technician that is a good friend of Dr. Brown’s so we know they are properly cared for!

02/26/2023

We braved the rain this morning to make it to the monthly clinic hosted by . This wonderful organization helps provide basic healthcare needs such as vaccines, preventatives, microchipping, etc for pets of people experiencing homelessness. We are lucky to have a chapter here in San Diego that hosts clinics at 2 locations every month, ocean beach and downtown. We could always use more vet/tech/assistant volunteers on the list- DM if interested and I can get you in touch with the coordinators!

02/21/2023

After a week of cenote swims, scuba diving, exploring Tulum on bikes, delicious food and drinks, topped off with a beautiful wedding, we are back refreshed and ready to see you and your pets! I will be returning all calls and messages from the past week today and have several openings this week for anything that may have come up while I was away!

Alfie just got adopted from the shelter a few days ago and had his new puppy exam today…not only is he a perfect gentleman, he also immediately figured out where the treat stash was 😂 Puppies like Alfie are perfect candidates for things like food puzzles to keep them happy and busy!

19 years old and going strong! This is Gizmo Brown and he proves every day that age is just a number. Not only do cats need you to take care of their basic physical needs, they have emotional needs just like people! Playtime and social interaction are important for cats of all ages ❤️ Behavior problems and even some medical conditions can be fixed simply by enriching your cat’s environment!
