Good afternoon, BHV friends! We have a holiday coming up in a few days that we celebrate with flowers and candy❤️. It’s important to be mindful of our pets when we bring new plants into the house and to keep any treats out of their reach. Here’s a post from AERC that we thought we should share because no one wants to spend the holiday in the emergency clinic!

Recently, we had these 2 handsome kitties, Freyr and his litter mate Uller, on the truck for dentals. We forgot to get before and after pictures of both of their mouths, but we did take photos of Freyr’s teeth prior to his cleaning and again after, and you can really see the difference it makes!

Dental health is so important and really makes a difference to a pet’s wellbeing. We recommend brushing your pet’s teeth daily, with a soft-bristled toothbrush or finger brush, but know this isn’t practical for many people and/or their animals. A professional dental cleaning, like what we can do on the truck, involves the pet being anesthetized, having full-mouth x-rays to spot any hidden problems below the gumline, followed by ultrasonic scaling and polishing of the teeth, and any extractions if needed. Bloodwork is required prior to anesthesia, to ensure the animal is healthy enough to undergo a procedure. During the procedure they are with us for a few hours on the truck, which is parked right outside of your house! After a dental, pets are usually back to normal by the very next day and, especially if they had bad dental disease, you can see quickly how much better a professional procedure can make them feel! Call us today to set up your pet’s cleaning!

This little lady is Lily, an 8 week old Dachshund pup! We couldn’t resist taking lots of pictures of this adorable girl at her first vet visit with us. And she was so brave for her vaccines, too! Way to go Lily!!! 🐶❤️

Say Hello to the newest addition to Blake Home Vet!

Meet Melissa! Some of you may have already talked to her, if you called, texted, or emailed us within the past few weeks. She is going to be working as our receptionist, and we are so glad to have her help!

Besides being a farmer’s daughter and a life-long animal lover, Melissa went to school at the Minnesota School of Business for Veterinary Technology, which is where she met Jessica, Dr Blake’s technician, and she’s worked locally at several clinics. For pets, she currently has an English bulldog named Charlie and a goat named Kevin. She is also a mom to her daughter Abby, who keeps her busy with activities like dance and karate, and another animal lover who enjoys spending time at the family farm. When she actually has free time, Melissa enjoys fishing, hanging out with friends, and taking road trips

Welcome to our team, Melissa!

UPDATE: THE DNA TEST RESULTS ARE IN!

Remember Mango? She is a mix of Lab, Pitty, and German Shepherd! A couple of you were so close! Good work! Thanks for participating everyone!!!

CONTEST TIME!

This adorable gal is Mango!

We got to meet her at a new puppy visit, and is she ever a sweetie! Her mom sent out a DNA test on her and is waiting for the results; in the meantime, does anyone have any guesses??? Drop your answers in the comments and we’ll let you know when the results come in!

Look at this adorable crew!

Giant doggo Jasmine, and the handsome orange kitty, Ashwood, are long time clients of Blake Home Vet, but we recently visited and met the two newest additions, Thunder Boom and Lightening Crash. Aren’t they all just super cute?🥰

And they were all pretty good patients, too! 😄

🎉🎉🎉 Help us in congratulating this sweet boy! Fletcher just completed treatment and has survived a disease that used to be 100% fatal!!! He was diagnosed earlier this year with Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP). In the past, this diagnosis was so hard because there was nothing we could do. A new drug was just finally approved and his mom went the extra mile to get it and has been giving him injections or pills daily for 3 months! He’s only 2 years old and just the sweetest boy so we knew we had to fight!! All his labs look good, his appetite is fantastic and he’s finally back to wrestling with his brother❤️. We could not be happier and we are THRILLED to celebrate this with him! Congratulations Fletcher, Jessica and I are so happy for you!!!!😍😍😍🎉🎉🎉

Meet Whisper!

This little lady was being fostered by one of our clients, so we met her previously when we went to vet the resident cat. She was recently adopted by another one of our clients, and this time we got to do an exam on her and actually spend some more time getting to know her. She’s a sweetheart! She is fitting right in with her new family, and getting along great with her new sister, Minnow. She was also an exemplary patient! We are so happy for you, Whisper, and very glad to provide your vet care!

Check out our adorable new patient, Vida!

She’s a 1O week old French Brittany Spaniel who sleeps hard and plays even harder! We loved her black and white coloring, which is unusual for the breed, who more commonly come in red and white. She also has a great personality - very friendly and boisterous! And of course, her cute little face is pretty hard to resist! She was such a brave girl for her first exam and shots. Good girl, Vida! We can’t wait to watch you grow!

This lucky guy is Kuma!

You might think he’s just having a cool treat on a hot summer’s day, but this is actually his very special treat that mom gives him whenever we visit him for vetting. We make him pretty nervous, and he doesn’t particularly like getting poked and prodded, but that ice cream cup makes it ALL worth it in the end! You can tell by his face that he’s NOT about to share any with us, however! 😝
