Happy Vet Tech Week! 🎉 This week we celebrate veterinary technicians and the many hats they wear every day. From being anesthetists and lab techs to radiologists and surgical techs, vet techs are truly the backbone of animal care. 🐾 But their most important role? Advocating for our patients, making sure every animal’s needs are heard and met with compassion and care. Thank you to all the amazing vet techs who go above and beyond to be the voice for those who can’t speak!

We are working to get this resolved, but if you have a true emergency in the meantime and cannot reach us, just bring your pet straight to us. Thank you for your patience!

****PENDING FOREVER HOME!🥰🥰

We have this BEAUTIFUL bullseye grey tabby male that will be ready for a new home at the end of next week! He is up to date on vaccines for his age! He will get his 3rd set and triple tested next week to check for feline leukemia, FIV, and heartworms.
He will be due for his final set and rabies in 4 weeks. He does well with our clinic cat Mia but will probably need a slow introduction to new cats. Dogs, he's very selective on, so again, a slow introduction would be best. He does have a right, rear leg deformity that does not slow him down at all. We've mostly been calling him Nemo. If you're interested in meeting Nemo, please ask a staff member while your here or give us a call at 423-586-3544!

An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic procedure that can help detect heart problems in cats and dogs!

All of our surgical and dental procedures are offered this service before going under anesthesia!

(It is a elective service but not required unless a Dr recommends.)

Just a reminder that we are only a week away from the 4th of July. This is the time to ensure pets are microchipped, your microchip information is current, pets are wearing well fitting collars with proper identification, and that you have enough medication from your vet if necessary. More dogs go missing on the 4th of July than any other time. Plan ahead to ensure your pet is not one of them 🎆

If you are needing medications filled we do require a 24 hour notice and a updated exam before filling prescriptions!

The temperature is going to be on the rise for a little while! Here's some tips for heat stroke in dogs!

Early signs are:

- excessive panting
- difficulty breathing
- excessive drooling
- dog is lethargic, drowsy or uncoordinated
- dog collapses
- vomiting

A dog’s normal body temp is higher than ours, around 101-102.5. The problem is, dogs are not that efficient at cooling down quickly, so if they get too hot, they can only cool down so fast.

Heatstroke is life threatening and can cause internal damage if untreated. It’s important to cool the dog down as quickly as possible. Note - don’t use ice water! This can construct the capillaries and actually inhibit cooling. Use cool (or whatever water you have) but not ice water if possible.

Dogs that are brachycephalic or overweight are more prone to heatstroke, BUT it can occur in any breed of dog.

Use caution when it’s hot.. for example, don’t run with your dog in the heat of the day, especially if they are higher risk.

Also on a related topic, be wary of burning pavements. If you’re out with your dog in the heat of the day, chances are the pavement will be too hot for their pads. If you see your dog “hot footing” lifting up each paw in succession, then it’s burning them.
