Imaging techniques such as x-rays, ultrasounds, CT scans, and MRIs are important tools for veterinarians in the diagnosis of medical conditions in pets.
A 2-year-old Labrador Retriever mix had been battling anxiety issues and unfortunately was unable to be given any prescription sedatives. One day when her owners were at work, the pup ripped up some carpet in their home. The pup had been vomiting, so her owner rushed her into the veterinarian for radiographs and found a stomach full of carpet and 2 staples.
These imaging techniques provide detailed images of the inside of the body, which can help veterinarians to identify problems that may not be visible using other methods. It looked like nothing had passed into her GI tract, so they opted to try to have her vomit. They had success and she threw up lots of carpet and both staples!! The owner took the staples home to remind them that things could've been much worse. Now she is a happy and healthy dog who goes into a safe kennel when the owners leave!

PSVS is thrilled to welcome Dr. Amanda Brenna to the team!
Originally hailing from Kirkland, Washington, Dr. Brenna is overjoyed to return to the Pacific Northwest and call the Kitsap Peninsula her home. Throughout her childhood, she accumulated a menagerie of rescued pets and injured wildlife and settled on a career as a veterinarian by the age of ten.
Dr. Brenna obtained her veterinary degree at Washington State University (GO COUGS!!!) where she quickly developed a reputation as “the neuro girl” amongst her classmates. After receiving her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine in 2013, she moved home to Seattle to complete a small animal rotating internship, and then to Dallas to complete a specialty internship in neurology at Center for Veterinary Specialty and Emergency Care. Her three-year residency in neurology and neurosurgery then took her to Auburn University in Alabama, where she got to spend every day honing her neuro diagnostic and neurosurgical skills and sharing her love of neurology with the veterinary students she taught. She then returned to Dallas, spending four years at the Center for Veterinary Specialty and Emergency Care as an associate neurologist. We are happy to welcome her back to the PNW as the newest Doctor on the PSVS team! Learn more on our website: https://bit.ly/PSVSDrBrenna
Seal pup season is in full swing in the Pacific Northwest, and we had the pleasure to help our friends at World Vets by being available to lend a hand with advanced imaging diagnostics to seal pups in need. Our partnership with World Vets allows their team to access advanced medical equipment when needed. By having access to advanced imaging, the World Vets team can evaluate injuries and gain a complete picture of a pup’s health which can help with rehabilitation efforts. We are so thankful for the opportunity to work with them and be of service to the local wildlife!
We are proud to provide advanced specialty and emergency veterinary care to pets and families. Exciting News! Our ER is Officially Open!
