How handsome is Tony!? 😍
He was so brave for his appointment this week. He let us draw blood, do a full physical exam and update his vaccines while he chowed down on cream cheese and whipped cream. Great work Tony!

Oh what a difference a year makes! Stoney has turned into such a handsome teenager!

Did you know we provide pro-active care as well? Have a new pet or puppy that you want to start out on the right paw for grooming and veterinary care? We can help with that! Many dogs become fearful at the vet or groomer. By giving them the tools they need to be successful when they are puppies we can help prevent medical phobias from developing.

Tongue out Tuesday! Jerry had to be sedated for a minor procedure, he always forgets he has a tongue when he first wakes up. It’s adorable. Happy Tuesday everyone!

Clementine was so brave for her appointment this week! She let us draw her blood while the doctor was giving her a belly rub! For some dogs, pets are so much better than snacks.

Jewel has been been practicing all year for her blood draw and she rocked it! She ate whipped cream straight from the can and didn’t even care that we drew her blood. Way to go Jewel!

Once upon a time, there was a handsome and debonair cat named Brick. Brick spent his days and nights on the streets overcoming hardships until he was taken in by a family of Detroit Lions fans. It didn't take long and he became a Detroit Lions superfan, adorned in tiny Lions gear. Brick curls up in front of the TV, eyes glued to the screen as the Lions fight their way through the unpredictable NFL season.

As the Detroit Lions begin their playoff journey, Brick is sensing it. The energy on the streets is electric, and the team’s unstoppable determination seems to mirror his own fierce spirit. The Lions have overcome so many obstacles—years of near-misses and heart-wrenching losses ( a memory similar to his time on the streets). But now, they are on the cusp of something incredible. Their playoff dreams are alive, and Brick is confident this will be their year.

Were hosting a pet portrait fundraiser for George to get a new hip! Sign up now as spots are limited.

Meet George! He’s an 8 month old lab and pittie mix (probably) who needs a hip replacement. 😭 He’s the sweetest boy so we are going to make sure that happens! But, as you would expect, that’s not a simple or cheap procedure. While he has an amazing foster home to recover at, we are going to be doing a bunch of fundraisers to help cover the costs. Stay tuned for lots of new fun things! Pet Pawtraits is one of them!

Join us for Pet Pawtraits on Saturday, January 18 from 11:00-1:00 at the The Reactive Referral Center for a pet portrait fundraiser! 📷❤️ A huge thank you for hosting us!!!

For just a $20 minimum donation, you can get a professional photo taken of your furry friend (digital download sent to you). It's the perfect way to celebrate the love you share with your pet while creating a lasting memory! Advance registration is required and time slots are limited. Use the link below to reserve your spot. The donation fee is due at the event. (Cash or Venmo preferred) Please note there is an outdoor and an indoor option for each time slot. We know some of our nervous friends may have a preference. 😍
