This Small Business Saturday, we want to take a moment to thank YOU- our incredible clients- for supporting our family-owned clinic.

In a time when so many clinics are going corporate, we are proud to remain an independent, family-owned practice. Our goal is to build community while growing relationships!

When you support small businesses, you’re not just making a transaction- you’re making an impact. By choosing to buy your food and meds from us or our online pharmacy instead of big corporations like Chewy, you are choosing to keep your money in our community where we are able to continue to provide jobs for locals and contribute back to our community.

THANK YOU for believing in us, trusting us with your pets and keeping our community strong!

Cheers to the other small businesses in the area that make our community so special!

Today is World Su***de Prevention Day. No one is immune from the toll life can take on mental health, including veterinary professionals. In fact, over the past two decades, veterinarians have often topped the list of at-risk professions.
If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts, contact a health professional immediately or dial 988. ***deawarness ***depreventionday ***depreventionmonth ***depreventionhotline ***depreventionawareness

Animals can play a crucial role in mental health. Research has demonstrated an association between pet ownership and enhanced social support, emotional well-being and general well-being. Pet ownership has also been found to play a role in helping people manage long-term mental health conditions.
Can't own a pet? Animal shelters and foster communities are always looking for volunteers.
If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts, contact a health professional immediately or call the su***de and crisis hotline by dialing 988. ***depreventionmonth ***depreventionawareness

September is Animal Pain Awareness Month. Animals show pain in different, sometimes surprising ways AND they're great as masking their pain. Look for these signs of pain:
1. Decreased activity
2. Not going up or down stairs
3. Reluctance to jump onto surfaces
4. Difficulty standing up after lying down
5. Decreased appetite
6. Over grooming or licking a particular area

If you notice any of these signs, contact your veterinarian!

Do you get seasonal allergies? Did you know your pet can, too? Allergies this season have been particularly bad. There are over the counter options, as well as prescription strength products and treatments that can help. Call us to discuss options to help your pet feel better!

Spring is in full swing, which means pollen and other allergens are wreaking havoc on the 50 million Americans who experience seasonal allergies. But humans aren’t the only species that suffer due to allergens — other animals, including our pets, can have allergies, too.

Veterinary care is as specific to the pet as medical care is to humans. That's why annual exams are so important! Nebraska requires a VCPR, or veterinary-client-patient relationship, in order for a veterinarian to provide care for a pet. To establish that relationship, we require pets to be seen for an annual check-up/wellness exam. If your email address is on file, you can access the pet portal via our website to check your pet's records or make an appointment. We are booked out 30 days for annual exams/vaccine appointments so make your appointment today if your pet is due!
