😢 Please, please, please, make sure your pet is current on their preventatives. They are aptly named and save your pet from this heartbreaking end.💔

It is with heavy hearts that we share the sad news that “Momma 🤍 Dog” from Circle K passed away today. She was not pregnant, as many had thought, but instead was suffering from heart worms and died of heart failure. Despite our best efforts, she passed on the way to the vet.

Her life touched many, and her story reminds us how important prevention and treatment are in the fight against heartworm disease. Run free, sweet Momma Dog — you were loved. 🕊️🐾

☀️ Just because summer’s winding down doesn’t mean parasites are.
Fleas, ticks, and worms are still active—and looking for a host!
Protect your pet with vet-recommended prevention and regular checkups.
🎯 Prevention now saves you (and your pet) a lot of discomfort later.

Not all pain is loud. 😔
Pets don’t always whine or cry when they’re hurting. Often, the signs are subtle—like limping, hiding, or changes in behavior.
If something feels "off," trust your gut.
📞 A quick exam could make a big difference in their comfort and quality of life.

Dr. Josh has been BUSY!! This sweet patient was his second FHO (femoral head osteotomy) this week and today he is repairing his second broken leg in almost as many days! All of our surgical patients receive laser therapy to aid in their recovery. Our goal is always to provide them with the best care possible! These sweet babies should be feeling much better soon! Happy Friday, Friends!!
