Do you want a Rambo in your life?
Now is your chance! Rambo's second cousins (they share a great grandfather) were born at the end of January. Dr Gruber is picking one to be Rambo's little brother, and the other two are available!

The litter was all males, and they were born on January 27th in Kentucky at the same farm where Rambo was born. They are full blooded Rat Terriers and come with registration papers. If you are interested in one, please let us know. Free delivery from Kentucky to DE/MD/PA at the beginning of April!

After several demos, we have found our digital X-ray machine! 🦴🦴
When you use Blue Hen's verterinary services, you are supporting a local small business (owned 100% by Dr. Gruber). We reinvest what we earn into capital that allows us to expand the services we offer our clientele, whether that be in the form of continuing education for Dr. Gruber (human capital) or a digital x-ray machine (physical capital)!

Note about a special going on now:
Dog folks: Receive a $105 rebate when you buy a 1-year supply of NexGard Plus (flea/tick/heartworm medication). Out-of-pocket cost with us is $370-$410 depending on the dog's size.

Call or text (302)660-1557 with any questions or to schedule an appointment.

What a week! Katy (who answers the phone if you call) unexpectedly had to have her gallbladder removed this week. She is home and recovering now which we are very grateful for.

In the meantime, if you are able, please text rather than call if you need to schedule an appointment or have an emergency. We will try to answer calls as well, but would appreciate texts when possible. Our number is (302)660-1557. Thank you!

‼️Attention‼️Yesterday we switched to a new phone system that will help us better manage calls and texts. Our phone number is still (302)660-1557. There was an error in the process so we did not receive texts messages all day. In addition, we lost all previous text threads. If you called/texted and haven’t heard back, please give us a follow up call/text. Thank you for your patience while we adjust to the new system!

Enjoy the slightly unrelated photo of Dr Gruber doing some work at the office with the help of the three goodest boys! 🐾

Happy Birthday, Dr. Gruber!

In celebration, Dr. G has lanced an abscess on a goat and is now attempting to sedate a loose bull with a dart gun. The life of a vet is full of adventures!

Do y’all remember sweet Pearl? She was adopted from Montgomery County Animal Shelter Texas during the Mega Adoption event in June. Pearl had tested positive for heartworm and with treatment costing $1,000-$1,500, we were worried this might prevent her chances of being adopted. We are sponsoring her treatment, and she received the first of three injections this past week.

Heartworm treatment consists of 30 days of an oral medication, followed by 30 days of waiting. Then, the patient receives an injection deep in the back muscle. After 30 more days, another injection is given followed by the third and final injection 24 hours later. Six months later, a heartworm test is administered to determine if the treatment was effective.

This treatment is physically painful for the dog and expensive for pawrent so we highly recommend keeping your dog on a heartworm preventative. We offer both a monthly chew (NexGard Plus, also covers flea & tick) and an annual injection (ProHeart).

We want our pups’ hearts full of love, not worms, so contact us to figure out which preventative works best for you and your pup!

Adopt Goldie at Mega Today!
Adopt Goldie at Mega Today!

Update: it happened, Goldie was adopted!!! We stopped by Brandywine’s Mega Adoption event at the Bob Carpenter Center on University of Delaware’s campus today. We fell in love with Goldie who is available to adopt today for only $35. She does have heartworm but Blue Hen Veterinary Services is offering to cover her heartworm treatment if someone within the area adopts her today. Mega is open until 5:00pm. If you fall in love with another dog (over 1 year old, or over 35lbs), we are offering a free initial house call and wellness exam for the adopted dog. https://www.megaadopt.com
