Dr. Lauren and Dr. Matt teamed up today for a complex surgery case today, a perineal urethrostomy (feel free to google at your own discretion 👀). The surgery went according to plan and our patient is recovering well! Of course we wish that surgery hadn’t been necessary, but it was fun for our vets to team up in the OR!

Check out this article from the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) about the importance of microchipping your pets! Microchips can reunite you and your pet if they happen to go missing, and serve as a proof of ownership.This is especially important for hurricane season when unpredictable events can take place. Hickory Knoll offers AKC Reunite microchips with a life-long membership, and our wonderful ladies at the front desk will even register your information for you at the time of placement!

Statistics show that one in three pets will become lost at some point during their lives, but cats and dogs with registered microchips are much more likely to experience a happy reunion with their loving families.

This precious kitten, Blue Boy, came to meet us today! He was just recently adopted from a rescue and needed some booster shots. Blue was such a good boy for Dr. McCords exam and his vaccinations. Congrats on your furever home!

Summer in the GNO is still raging and it’s not cooling off anytime soon. Remember to keep your pets safe from the heat. If you’re hot, your pets are hot! Heatstroke can be difficult to treat, but it is easy to prevent. 15 short minutes in the wrong conditions can be all it takes for heatstroke to set in. So, please keep your pets inside during the hottest points of the day and make sure their time outside is limited AND supervised!

We’re gonna miss this girl so much, but we are so proud of her going off to achieve her dreams! Her reward for her years of service (and dealing with Dr. Eric’s antics) was getting to pie Dr. Eric in the face
(See our story for a great video of that)! Come back and visit us soon, Callie 🥰

Happy Caturday! Adorable Miss Doris Day came for her booster shots and was the sweetest, bravest girl. Dory has heterochromia (two different colored eyes) and a solid white coat. While beautiful, cats with this coloration often tend to be deaf. Luckily, Doris can hear just fine!
