Hope is visiting us for rehab after a leg injury, and she’s a perfect example of how rehabilitation can help pets regain mobility and confidence. 🐾💪
Did you know? Physical therapy for pets can include exercises, massage, and other techniques to improve strength, flexibility, and overall well-being. It's not just for injuries—rehab can benefit senior pets or those with chronic conditions, too!
Hope is doing wonderfully, and we’re so proud of her progress. If you’ve ever wondered how rehab could help your furry friend, we’re happy to answer your questions.

🎃🐾 Halloween Safety for Pets! 🐾🎃
With Halloween tomorrow (crazy, right?!), let’s keep our furry friends safe! Keep candy out of reach, especially chocolate, which is toxic to pets. If dressing them up, ensure costumes fit well and supervise them. Create a quiet space for anxious pets as trick-or-treaters come and go. Remember to update ID tags or microchips, and avoid harmful decorations and glow sticks.

Let’s ensure our pets have a safe and happy Halloween! 🐶🕷️ Share your pet’s Halloween pics below! 🐾❤️

Another shout out to highlight more of our amazing employes and what they do! In fact, what do they do? Here's a little insight on their responsibilities and roles inside the clinics 😀
They play a crucial role in supporting veterinarians and ensuring the well-being of animals in multiple ways. Techs assist in the examination and treatment of animals, providing compassionate care, and educate our pet owners about animal care, treatment plans, and preventative measures! 🐾
Not only regular exams, but they also prepare animals for surgery, administer anesthesia, and monitor patients during procedures. Afterwards, they ensure that medical equipment is cleaned, sterilized, and properly maintained for future patients 🐶🐱

🐾📹 Check out this fascinating video of Dr. Gretchen performing a splenectomy on a dog using a ligature tool. For those curious, a ligature is a special tool used to tie off blood vessels or tissue to stop bleeding and ensure a clean removal. This dog was referred to us after an ultrasound revealed a mass on its spleen. The great news is that dogs can lead happy, healthy lives even without their spleen!
Did you know that we are a referral clinic? We offer many services such as orthopedic surgery, diagnostic tools like CT Scans, and many soft tissue surgeries! Check out our website to learn more: https://bit.ly/3Tiydwd.
