These bags of pet food are available to those in need for FREE. Thank you to everyone that has helped! Please continue to help us make sure that no pet goes hungry this winter. You can drop off your donations of unopened bags of dog and cat food here at Thousand Hills Vet Clinic or at Magnolia Market in Dix.

Dr. Aussieker had the wonderful idea of partnering with Handmade With Love By K LLC for a pet food collection!
Handmade with Love is already doing amazing work providing meals to those in need, in addition to her goods for sale at Magnolia Market.
We will be collecting pet food to stock the market for those in need. You are welcome to take your donation directly to Magnolia Market in Dix, IL-where it is available to the public on a first come, first served basis- or drop it off at THVC and Dr. Aussieker and I will take it to the market periodically. We hope to ease the financial burden for those in need and ensure that pets in our community don't have to go hungry. Thank you for your support!

Yesterday Buttercup’s Hand Dipped Ice Cream came to the clinic so we could treat our staff to a sweet treat for Veterinary Technician Week! The staffs pets were also able to get a pup cup and we caught Rip enjoying his!

With harvest upon us a friendly reminder that your pet may ingest corn cobs! Friday we had two foreign body surgeries and both dogs had ingested corn cobs. A foreign body surgery is performed when a pet has consumed an object and it becomes stuck in the stomach or intestinal tract. Keep a close eye on your pets while outdoors! Signs of a foreign body can be vomiting, diarrhea, or decreased appetite.
Also, remember that if you are having corn on the cob with a meal to ensure your pets cannot get to those either.

Since this is a product we carry we want to remind all pet owners to keep Apoquel chewable tablets out of reach for all pets! They are drawn to the flavoring. If your pet ingests more than their dose please contact us or an emergency veterinary hospital immediately.
Please spread the word to your family and friends who may not see this
