With the right care, it’s amazing how quickly a pet can bounce back! 💚🐾

When Norah came to DoveLewis, she was feeling pretty under the weather – she wouldn’t even lift her head. After some fluids, anti-nausea meds, and lots of TLC, she perked up and was soon wagging her tail and chatting with us!

While we couldn’t pinpoint exactly what caused her episode (bloodwork, x-rays, and exams came back normal), we were so happy to see her improve and head home with her family.

We’re so happy you’re feeling better, Norah! 💚🐾

Did you know? 💡 Activated charcoal acts like a toxin magnet in a pet’s system, binding with harmful substances to prevent them from being absorbed into the bloodstream. 🖤

After Lila here decided that rat poison was on her snack list (don’t worry, we had a serious talk with her 😜), we quickly used activated charcoal to help her recover. A bit messy? Sure. But totally life-saving? Absolutely. And we’re happy to report she was asking for in no time!

With a name like Bunny Disney Sparkle, you know she’s not going for ordinary snacks. But when she went for the rubber door stopper, we knew we had a different situation on our hands. 😅

After attempting to induce vomiting and spinning her around in an attempt to get things moving (thanks, Ibolya!), we had to call in the endoscopy pros to clear up the snack situation! 🌪️🤢

Lesson learned: toys with the biggest smiles often cause the biggest trouble! 😏

Frankie the came in feeling down—vomiting, lethargic, and refusing food. Turns out, this overly-happy toy was the culprit! After surgery to remove it, Frankie’s on the mend and ready to sport her biggest smile. 😀

Drop a 💚 in the comments to show Frankie some love!

What do Thesius the and Dizzy the have in common? 🤔 They’re both ! 🐶🐰

While their smooshed faces are undeniably cute, but their shortened airways and narrow nostrils can make breathing harder, especially in the heat. If you’re lucky enough to have a brachy pet, be sure to keep an eye on their breathing and avoid overexertion. 💕

“Dog’s only flaw as a species is that they don’t live long enough. But the warmth they give us will never go away.” Kirk Herbstreit remembers his best friend, Ben, in a touching tribute to the unbreakable bond between people and the animals they love.

Caution: Dog may contain hidden toys! 🐾😜

Charley gave us all a surprise with some unexpected vomiting and loss of appetite. After a check-up and what turned out to be a very revealing re**al exam, we found the culprit! 🧸

(Don’t worry, everything's cleaned up in the photo!) 😅
