Proud to say we follow the forward thinking of safe anesthesia, including having a dedicated person to monitor all anesthetic procedures ( and we’ve been doing it for 8 yrs now ).

Good info on pain scale for your pet.

Frustrating is when a client brings their pet in for an evaluation for limping/loss of appetite/ flinching when touched, and when I tell the client the animal is in pain, the client replies,” No he isn’t in pain because he isn’t screaming.” 🙄

Let that sink in a minute…..

Folks, if you wait until your pet is screaming in pain, you’ve waited tooo $&*%*!< long and you don’t deserve to have an animal.

More info about the bird flu & our pets.

FDA issues avian flu prevention guidance for pet owners
The FDA issued guidance advising dog and cat owners not to feed their pets unpasteurized milk or raw or undercooked meat to reduce the risk posed by highly pathogenic avian influenza, which has killed both domesticated and wild felines. Pets should also be kept away from wild birds. The AVMA says pet owners should seek veterinary care if their pet develops eye inflammation or discharge, tremors, seizures, incoordination, fever, lethargy, poor appetite or difficulty breathing. https://www.fda.gov/animal-veterinary/cvm-updates/fda-outlines-ways-reduce-risk-hpai-cats

Please don’t give animals as gifts for holidays or birthdays.

Animals are a lifetime commitment .

Choose wisely, and be prepared for the emotional & financial responsibility of another living soul.

Because of the dog's joyfulness, our own is increased. It is no small gift.
It is not the least reason why we should honor as well as love the dog of our own life, and the dog down the street, and all the dogs not yet born.
What would the world be like without music or rivers or the green and tender grass?
What would this world be like without dogs ?

Please do not buy these products for your pets.

They are not healthy.

Every vet I know would go out of business if people just fed their pets correcty, and did not give them commercial dog treats.

Stay safe my friends, and protect your pets !
