**Meet Donut & Stewie!** 🐴❤️ These two adorable miniature horses have found their forever home at our Lockport clinic, where we not only care for small animals but also run our equine clinic. They were lovingly taken in by our Equine Practice Manager, Liz, when their previous owner could no longer keep them. Donut and Stewie are some of the sweetest mini horses you'll ever meet!

Keep an eye on our page for details about our Open House at the Lockport clinic in October—where you'll get the chance to meet them in person!

🐾 **Do you know why we add a green line tattoo to all the pets we spay/neuter?** 🐾
This small tattoo is a vital sign that a pet has been fixed (spayed/neutered). If they ever get lost and end up in animal control or a shelter, the staff can quickly see that they've already been spayed or neutered, preventing unnecessary surgery. It's just one more way we care for your pets' well-being! 💚

🐾 **Tuesday Tidbit: Why Washing Your Pet’s Water Bowl is a Must!** 🐾

Did you know that the slimy film that builds up in your pet’s water bowl is more than just gross? It can actually harbor bacteria that might upset your furry friend’s tummy! 😳

Keep those bowls fresh and clean by giving them a good wash regularly—your pet's digestive system will thank you! 🧼💦

Happy pets, healthy pets! 💙🐶🐱

🌟 **Did you know that our clinics offer Laser Therapy?** 🌟

Our awesome tech, T, and one of our furry clients are here to show off the cool glasses they get to wear during laser therapy! 😎 Not only is it stylish, but laser therapy has amazing benefits for your pet’s healing and comfort.

Laser therapy, also known as cold laser therapy or low-level laser therapy (LLLT), can be beneficial for dogs after spay surgery by promoting faster healing and reducing discomfort. Here's how it helps:

1. Reduces Inflammation: Laser therapy helps to decrease inflammation in the surgical area by improving blood flow and encouraging the removal of inflammatory cells. This can result in less swelling and discomfort for the dog.

2. Promotes Healing: The laser stimulates cellular activity, particularly in the skin and underlying tissues, which can accelerate the healing process. It enhances the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is essential for cell repair and regeneration.

3. Pain Relief: Laser therapy can provide pain relief by stimulating the release of endorphins, the body’s natural painkillers, and by reducing nerve sensitivity. This can make the recovery period more comfortable for the dog.

4. Improves Circulation: The increased circulation from laser therapy ensures that nutrients and oxygen are delivered more efficiently to the surgical site, which aids in quicker tissue repair.

5. Minimizes Scar Tissue: By promoting better healing and reducing inflammation, laser therapy can also help minimize the formation of scar tissue, leading to a cleaner and more effective recovery.

Overall, laser therapy can be a valuable tool in post-operative care for dogs, supporting a smoother and faster recovery process after spay surgery.

**Meet Dr. Ali! 🐾**

On Friday, Dr. Ali was hard at work alongside our entire team at Premier Paws. Dr. Ali has owned Premier Equine for 15 years and recently purchased Timberline Animal Hospital, now known as Premier Paws at Timberline. After a complete remodel, the clinic is absolutely beautiful. She also recently opened Premier Paws veterinary service in Lockport, a stunning new facility connected to her Equine Practice.

Fun facts about Dr. Ali: She has 🐔 chickens, a 🐴 donkey, a 🦆 duck, and her lovely 10-year-old English Pointer, Abby 🐶, who often accompanies her to work. She's also the mom of active 10-year-old twins. 👩‍👧‍👦

Dr. Ali has been a staunch supporter of rescue efforts and Spay Illinois Pet Well Clinics since their inception, remaining actively involved in ensuring all pets have access to veterinary care. 🐾❤️
