🌟Feature Furday: Meet Abigail!🌟
Abigail is a 1 and 1/2 year old cockapoo who's world revolves around her ball ⚽️ She will play for hours if you are willing to throw it for her! She is definitely not short on puppy energy 🩷 This little one does very well crated/kenneled, as you can tell from this picture. She was so well behaved when she was here for her spay, she even brought her stuffed llama 🦙

On this day in 1942, Vietnam veteran Joe White founded the K-9 Corps, a groundbreaking initiative that has since become integral to both law enforcement and military operations. The K-9 Corps encompasses not only working dogs but also service dogs, each trained to perform essential tasks. These courageous canines assist police and military personnel in detecting drugs and explosives, tracking suspects, apprehending lawbreakers, patrolling, and participating in search and rescue missions. Beyond their vital duties, many of these dogs also serve as therapy companions, providing emotional support to their handlers and strengthening the bond between them. 🐕‍🦺

Want to ensure that people can easily identify who your pet belongs to if they ever get lost? Microchipping is the solution! A microchip allows veterinary clinics to scan your pet, retrieve the microchip number, and contact the registered company to help reunite you with your furry friend. 🐾

Because of the larger needle used to insert the microchip, we typically recommend doing this procedure while your pet is sedated for another treatment. However, it can also be done safely without anesthesia if needed.

Interested in getting your pet microchipped? We got you! Call today to talk to someone about getting your pet microchipped today 📞

For animals that get separated from their owners, proper identification is a ticket home. Microchips are a safe and reliable method of permanent identification.

Today is World Spay Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness about the importance of spaying and neutering our pets! These procedures offer numerous benefits, both for pets and the community. 🐾

In the U.S., 80-90% of cats and dogs have been spayed or neutered, helping to curb the overpopulation crisis. 🌎

Sterilizing your furry companions not only extends their lifespans and reduces the risk of certain cancers, but also helps minimize undesirable behaviors. Most importantly, it plays a critical role in reducing pet overpopulation, ultimately lowering the number of animals in shelters and the heartbreaking need for euthanasia.

Need to make an appointment to get your pet spayed or neutered? Call our office today! 📞
