😻 Ready to fall in love? Daki at the Humane Society of West Michigan is melting hearts as our 🐾
Meet Daki! This lovely lady will take you away with her goofy personality and irresistible green eyes. She has been waiting for her forever family at HSWMI since March of 2023- could it be you?!
Although she comes off as a bit shy, there was a solution to remedy that quickly - other cats!🐈⬛🐈 Daki now will let others approach her and is enthusiastic when people give her pets. She loves chirping and is OBSESSED with butt scratches ❤️ Daki loves to explore her surroundings, finding cozy hiding spots, or a nice sunbeam to cat-nap in. While she isn't exploring, one of her favorite things is making her people smile. She's a professional at chasing her toys, sleeping standing up, and going absolutely crazy with catnip.
If you are interested in adopting Daki, please reach out through this link: https://www.shelterluv.com/embed/animal/HSWM-A-48845. And please share this post to help find Daki her forever home 🏡
🐾 It's a paw-some day for a warm welcome! Meet Sophie and Charlie, the newest members of our Family Friends Veterinary Hospital community. Let's give them a big round of ap-paws! 🐾
🐶Sophie is a 9 week old Bernese Mountain Dog puppy who came to see us last week for her first official visit. Fun fact, she was the only puppy in her litter ("single-ton") from our very own Randy Carpenter’s Ophelia. Despite her suspicious look, she did great for her visit!
🐱Our other new furry friend, Charlie, is a *handsome* 5 month old domestic shorthair with the most beautiful blue eyes. He was a sweet but feisty little man 😅 Nothing our team isn't used to of course!
If you or someone you know is looking for a veterinarian in the Grand Rapids area, let them know we are accepting new clients with little to no wait! To learn more about new client appointments, or the other services we offer, visit: www.familyfriendsvet.com/new-clients/

🌟 Meet the Team Monday 🌟 Today, we're excited to introduce Dr. Lexi De Nike, our newest DVM to the Family!
Dr. De Nike attended Purdue University (Boiler UP!) for her Bachelor’s degree in Animal Sciences, then completed a master’s degree at University of Illinois studying immunology and sickness behavior, and finally completed her tour of the “Big 10” at Michigan State University where she received her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree. During veterinary school, she began working at Family Friends as a technician, and quickly knew she had found the perfect place to take care of animals! She feels lucky to work in such a caring hospital, where her coworkers, clients, and patients all feel like family.
In her spare time, she enjoys spending time in national/state parks, kayaking, attending concerts, and trying new restaurants. At home, Dr. De Nike and her husband Ryan share the couch with Ren (Dachshund), Mabel (Chocolate Labrador Retriever) and leopard gecko, Curtis.
She officially joined us this month and has already made a positive impact with her eagerness to learn and support for her team and clients. We cannot wait to see all that she accomplishes here at FFVH! Please join us in giving her a very warm welcome ❤️
You can now schedule appointments with Dr. Lexi through our website! Book here: https://us.vetstoria.com/booking/60420a08279a1/?step=2

🐈⬛ Looking for a purrfect companion with a heart of gold? Say hello to Grinch! This week's is waiting to become your new best friend!
Grinch arrived to Fig and Friends Pet Rescue after being lovingly cared for as an outdoor cat by someone who couldn't bring him inside. She took him to the vet, got him neutered and got him to Fig and Friends so he could have the best chance for a loving home.
She named him Grinch because he has a "heart of gold". While initially unhappy and overstimulated when arriving in rescue, he quickly settled in and has become happy and loving. He is curious and likes to meet new people 🥰
He will most likely do well with other cats but not dogs.🐶 While an outdoor cat, he did try to attack a few dogs. He definitely has a more dominant personality and so any introductions with other cats will need to be done slowly.
He is estimated to be about a year and a half old and is a big guy, weighing in at just over 12 pounds!
✨If you are interested in adopting Grinch, you can meet him at the Pet Supplies Plus in the Woodpointe Shopping Center on the East Beltline, or fill out the online application here: https://www.figandfriendspetrescue.org/adopt
Please share this post and help us find Grinch his forever home!🏠
Ready for another round of 'What's That Wednesday'? This week's x-ray was a complete surprise, since the pet came in for a routine visit and showed no symptoms other than one clue: something in their stool that shouldn't be there... Can you guess what this cute culprit ate? 👀 Leave your guesses in the comments below!
✨This pet continued to pass the foreign objects without issues and did *not* need surgery!
Heads up to our Family and Friends: We are closing the hospital from 1-3pm for a staff meeting and lunch. The phone lines will be down for those two hours, and the lobby/hospital will be closed. Please plan accordingly for all medication pick ups!
Thank you all for your understanding and we will be right back at 3pm as usual! 🐾
Be prepared, not scared! 🐾❤️
June is National Pet Preparedness Month and having a pet first aid kit can make all the difference in an emergency! Keep your pets safe with these supplies and information, and check out our full blog post here: www.familyfriendsvet.com/blog/
Always remember:
💊 Never administer medication without a vet's say so.
🚧 When in pain, pets might become aggressive. Be careful, but don't take it personally!
✨Stay calm. If you're panicking, your pet will become agitated too.
In case of an emergency, always call us at 616-575-6520 or your nearest Emergency Hospital. We're here to help keep your beloved pets healthy and safe!
🌟 It's Meet the Team Monday at Family Friends Veterinary Hospital! Today, we're shining the spotlight on licensed veterinary technician, Sam! Her dedication and expertise have made her an invaluable part of our team.
Sam is a 2011 graduate from Grand Valley State University (wildlife biology degree) and a 2015 graduate from Baker where she got her Veterinary Technician degree. She started in the Pet Care Center of FFVH as a receptionist in 2013 and has been a technician since graduating in 2015. 🩺 Prior to working at Family Friends she practiced wildlife rehab at Blandford Nature Center caring for owls, hawks, and reptiles. Sam enjoys surgery, performing CT scans, and making dogs vomit up the naughty things they eat. Sam enjoys cultivating long lasting relationships with her clients and their pets. You'll often find her interrupting your appointments to say hi! She also makes sure to say hi to every Corgi that comes in the building. 🐾
Sam spends her free time reading, crocheting, going to Vegas on vacation, and spending time with her two dogs. Leroy Jenkins is her 6 year old pitty mix who is her heartdog ❤️ and Neville Longbottom a 3 year old Corgi cleft palate pup who drives her parents nuts. These days you can find Sam and Neville working on Neville's agility skills - she's conquered the tunnel!
She is a true MVP here at Family Friends- from being a Lead Technician to helping in any area she is needed, we could not be more proud to have her on our team. Leave her some love in the comments and make sure to thank your technician at your next visit !
This week at Family Friends Veterinary Hospital, we stayed very busy despite being closed on Monday for Memorial Day! From treating injured pets to caring for sick patients, our dedicated team handled every emergency with expertise and compassion. 🐾
✨We're also excited to announce that our new DVMs, Dr. De Nike and Dr. Walker, have begun their training on weekends, ensuring we're always ready to provide top-notch care and allowing for more appointments on those days!

Yawns are the universal language of tiredness... and apparently contagious even among our furry friends! 😴🐶
Who else can't resist yawning when they see their pup do it? It's the canine version of 'monkey see, monkey do'!
Need some extra love in your life? How about double?! Bonded mother & daughter duo Cici and Frida are here to fill your heart with joy! Don't miss out on the chance to adopt these two sweet girls! 💕
Cici is a senior (estimated 10yrs) but she is spry and inquisitive, likes to explore and loves attention but isn’t super needy for it. Frida (estimated 5yrs) is very reliant on her mom and needs her to be brave. She will need a very patient adoptive family who will allow her to get comfortable at her own pace. These girls are homebodies and don’t need a whole lot more than a comfy couch and a fenced-in yard where they can sunbathe the day away. Both are spayed, microchipped, and are up-to-date on vaccines and preventatives!
Are you ready to open your heart and home to this adorable duo? Contact Hearts of Hope Dog Rescue to learn more about Cici & Frida, or check out their Wagtopia pages here: https://www.wagtopia.com/search/pet?id=2053262&name=Cici+-+Bonded+Pair+
Let's keep these ladies together in their forever home! 🏡✨
It's a very special Welcome Wednesday because we get to introduce TWO new Veterinarians to our FFVH family 💙💙
Dr. Lexi De Nike and Dr. Erica Walker both graduated from Michigan State University's College of Veterinary Medicine this May, and have officially started as full-time veterinarians here at Family Friends Veterinary Hospital. We could not be more proud of them for their accomplishments, and are looking forward to watching them continue to learn and grow lasting relationships with their clients 🐾

It's Meet the Team Monday at Family Friends Veterinary Hospital! Today, we're shining the spotlight on Dr. Meaghan Duck 🩺🐾
Dr. Meaghan graduated in May 2023 from MSU's College of Veterinary Medicine. She has been part of the Family Friends team as an exam room technician since July 2021, gaining technical skills in both general practice and urgent care.
At home, she has a variety of critters including Anatolian Shepherds, a few house cats, dairy goats and Icelandic sheep. In her down time, she enjoys attending dog shows with her Anatolian Shepherds and working out in her garden and on her farm.💚

*Sensitive Content* What a relief! ✨ When Harvey came into the hospital earlier this week, his owner noted that he had been sneezing non-stop since their latest walk through the woods. 🔎Upon examination, Dr. Ryan could see something in the nasal cavity, and proceeded to remove the twig with forceps. I think we were all shocked to see the size of the twig, but Harvey is doing great now with no issues. ❤️🩹 Here's to happy endings and wagging tails! #FridayFeature #HarveyHealed #DrRyanToTheRescue #FFVH #FamilyFriendsVetHospital #GrandRapidsMi #GrandRapidsVets #VetsWhoLoveYourPets #WeNotMe #TreatAllAsFamilyAndFriends #Anticipate #Innovate #Adapt
Meet Murphy, the resilient Bernese Mountain Dog 🐾 and follow along for a day in the life of a TPLO patient at Family Friends Veterinary Hospital! From morning check-in to 3 week post-op, Murphy walks us through what this sugery entails. A TPLO (Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy) is a surgery performed to help stabilize the knee joint after the cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) is torn. When the CCL is torn or injured, surgical stabilization of the knee joint is often required, especially in larger or more active dogs like Murphy. Surgery is generally recommended as soon as possible to reduce permanent, irreversible joint damage and to relieve pain, so if you are ever in doubt- call your veterinarian! 🩺 Several surgical techniques are currently used to correct CCL rupture; FFVH currently offers both TPLO and MRIT procedures. Each procedure has unique advantages and potential drawbacks. Your FFVH veterinarian will guide you through the decision-making process and advise you on the best surgical option for your pet. Healing from a TPLO procedure can take up to 16 weeks of strict activity restrictions and rest, so Murphy still has a long way to go in his healing journey. We will be checking in on him between 8-10 weeks post-op for more x-rays (his favorite) and sending him all of our love until then!❤️🩹 ✨Has your pet ever had this surgery?

🌟 Tip of the Week: Prevention is Key 🌟 Heartworm prevention can cost less than $10 a month for a dog, but treatment can cost well over $1000! Not to mention the discomfort and health risks that your pet can face if infected. One of the best ways to protect your pets from heartworm disease all together is by starting them on preventive medication- all year around. These medications are safe, effective, and easy to administer. Whether it's a chewable tablet, a topical solution, or vet-administered injection, our team at Family Friends Veterinary Hospital can recommend the best option for your furry companion! 🦟 Another thing you can do is to minimize exposure to mosquitos by keeping your outdoor areas clean and free of standing water where mosquitoes breed. Be sure to use pet-safe mosquito repellents and consider installing screens on windows/doors to prevent mosquitoes from entering your home. #HeartwormPrevention #ProtectYourPets #MosquitoControl #HeartwormPrevention #Zoetis #FFVH #FamilyFriendsVetHospital #GrandRapidsMi #GrandRapidsVets #VetsWhoLoveYourPets #WeNotMe #TreatAllAsFamilyAndFriends #Anticipate #Innovate #Adapt
