Its that time of year again! We are once again excited to be offering discounted dental cleanings during the month of February in honor of National Pet Dental Health Month.
Regular dental cleanings play a very important part in keeping your pet healthy and happy. More than 70% of pets will have some degree of periodontal disease by age three. The health of your pet's teeth can affect their comfort, digestion, overall health, and even their organ function! We look forward to seeing you soon for your pet's dental cleaning!

There have recently been some rumors running rampant on social media that there is a current issue with Purina diets are "killing pets." We have received a number of calls from owners concerned for their pet's safety. Contrary to popular belief, veterinarians do not receive any "kick backs" or incentives to recommend or carry certain brands or diets. Even the profit margins on food carried and sold by vet clinics are actually very narrow. Purina is AAFCO and WSAVA compliant which are the highest regulatory standards currently available for determining the quality of pet food.
Purina recently released a public statement regarding these rumors as well as a personal message from our Purina representative.

"Please beware of online rumors claiming there are issues with Purina products – these false statements may be creating unnecessary stress for pet parents. There are no health or safety issues with any of our products, and they can continue to be fed with confidence.

At Purina, we take pride in feeding 46 million dogs and 68 million cats every year. The quality, safety and nutrition of our products is our highest priority, and we take feedback from concerned pet owners and veterinarians very seriously. Our Quality Assurance team leads more than 100,000 quality checks EVERY DAY across our factory network with the goal of ensuring our products are safe at every stage of the process – from when our ingredients arrive at our factories to when we ship our final food and treats out to retailers and consumers. Our comprehensive program ensures the foods you feed your pets, and that we feed our own, are safe.

The health and safety of pets – yours and our own – will never be compromised.

If you read something online that concerns you, or you have any questions about your pet food, please feel free to reach out to our team. We also recommend researching the source of these posts. Some are well-intentioned pet parents who are genuinely concerned and trying to be helpful, while others may be trying to create chaos and distrust of certain brands as an opportunity to sell their own products. Either way, please know that if there is a confirmed issue with any Purina product, we will be sharing that information with our consumers first.

Please understand that myself and my team members are immediately alerted if there are ever any Real issues with our products, and we quickly send word out to our clinics upon receiving this information. The prime example being our voluntary recall of our allergy diet, Elemental, at the beginning of 2023. I always like to remind people that Purina has been safely feeding pets for over a century, and we haven’t lasted that by ‘killing’ pets."

We do not encourage our clients to change their pets diet, especially if it is a prescription diet as a result of these allegations at this time. Thank you!

Attention! It's that time of year again!
More pets go missing on July 4th-6th than any other days of the year! The coming weeks are also some of the busiest weeks for vet hospitals and shelters caring for animals who have gotten lost or hurt while trying to escape.
Here are some tips to keep your pet safe during the next few weeks of celebrations.
1. Be sure your dog is microchipped AND wearing an ID tag with UP TO DATE information.
2. Have recent photos of your pet available in case they get lost.
3.Keep them INSIDE and away from possible hazards and escape routes with a radio or television to help drown out the noise.
4. Be prepared to provide distractions and comfort. Some great options for distractions include Kongs, lick/snuffle mats or puzzle toys and chews. Some great options for comfort are being with your pet, crate training, or using a thunder shirt.
5.Lastly, it's always a good idea to ask your veterinarian about safe medications to ease your pet's anxiety and help keep them safe this season.
Even if you don't know how your pet will react, it's always a good idea to have some calming medication on hand now so that you're not fighting to get into the vet at the last minute or worse, going without needed medication because the vet is closed.
We wish you a safe and happy Independence day!

Update!
We have an emergency generator on board. We are functioning at about 50%. The only thing we can't do is x-rays on the generator

Attention!
We and several thousand other people on the west side of Idaho falls are currently without power.
We are bringing in an emergency generator, but at the moment we do not have the capability to weigh patients, take x-rays, run blood work, run anesthesia, etc. If you have an emergency please reroute to another hospital!
