Happy National Donut Day!

P.S- We do love donuts and will happily accept any donations 😉

While a plain munchkin is occasionally okay, many donuts have toxic additives (like chocolate and/or xylitol) to your furry friend. Take one for the team, and enjoy a donut yourself on National Donut Day (11/10 dogs would prefer a pup cup anyway😉)🍩

Big news! Everyone be on the lookout this weekend for an email or text message to download the PetDesk app!

We sincerely appreciate everyone's patience as we worked hard to regain the client's access to their pet's medical history. We are so excited for everything Pet Desk has to offer!

Please note that it will take a bit of time for the staff to learn the new software, so we appreciate understanding.

With high temps it's best to leave our furry friends at home (unless of course they're coming in for a visit). Try your best to limit your pets time outside, pick up our little friends so they aren't exposed to the hot asphalt temps and make sure they have plenty of water to stay hydrated!
