She is a diabetic alert dog for her mom! Diabetic alert dogs are trained to alert when blood sugar levels change. They signal low or high glucose by poking with their nose. Unlike machines that might be ignored, dogs keep trying until they get a response!

IT'S OK NOT TO BE OK!
The Peyton Heart Project strives to bring global awareness about su***de, bullying, and to help end the stigma surrounding mental health issues. Kindness is a virtue! A simple smile or a friendly "hello" could change the trajectory on someone's day who may be struggling with mental health. YOU ARE ENOUGH AND YOU DO MATTER. Please join us on raising awareness on su***de and the stigma surrounding mental health. Become an active advocate by spreading kindness and positivity.

While finishing up our morning appointments, we stumbled on this beautiful crocheted heart. To the lovely client who left this here, thank you for sharing this with us. It has made a difference in our day and we are grateful to know of Peyton's story and to be able to become advocates of the struggles of mental health and su***de.

The purpose of an OFA Companion Animal Eye exam is to provide breeders with information regarding canine eye diseases so that they can make informed breeding decisions in an effort to breed healthier dogs.

Meet Mr. Wrangler! Wrangler is dedicated to helping our ophthalmology patients by donating his blood so we can collect serum for severe corneal ulcerations.

When a dog or cat donates blood, serum is taken from the blood product and can be used to treat a variety of diseases, infections and disorders in the eye, such as corneal ulcers. Corneal ulcers are very common in cats and dogs, and serum eye drops can be a essential part of the treatment given to them. The serum from our generous blood donor is vital to allow the Ophthalmology department to continue to help to save the vision of patients!
