Last month, Sully came in for evaluation of a cranial cruciate ligament rupture (analogous to an ACL tear in people). He left with his paperwork in tow!
He recently had surgery to repair his cranial cruciate ligament and is recovering well.
This brave boy has a big role coming up soon as a “groomsman” at his owner’s wedding! 🎩💍 We’ll keep you updated on his progress and share more about his special day as it gets closer.
Meet Pendragon! Pendragon came to our emergency room with a foreign body, a ribbon, in his stomach. Thanks to our skilled internal medicine team, who performed an endoscopic procedure called gastroscopy, we successfully removed the ribbon in a noninvasive manner.
Watch to the end to see the ribbon’s removal in action! 🐾✨
Why is ultrasound important in veterinary practice?
Ultrasound is essential in veterinary practice by providing real-time, non-invasive, detailed images of internal organs. It is widely used for diagnosing pathology in the abdomen, thorax, heart, and musculoskeletal structures, for guiding aspirates/biopsies and fluid sampling, and for monitoring chronic conditions. This tool enhances diagnostic accuracy and treatment guidance, ensuring better health outcomes for animals.

🌟 Meet our Pet of the Month, Denali! 🐾 Despite facing two major surgeries this year—a tie-back, or arytenoid laryngoplasty surgery, in June and an FHO, or femoral head ostectomy, due to a dislocated hip in September—Denali, at age 14, continues to inspire us with his resilience and spirit. Huge thanks to our Board-Certified Veterinary Surgeons and our amazing team for their dedication and care throughout his journey. Denali still finds joy in the things he loves, and we’re grateful for every playful moment he has!
Cold weather can be tough on your dog's paws, but with a little care, you can keep them happy and healthy!
🥾 Dog boots are like winter boots for humans, shielding paws from frostbite, harsh chemicals, and icy discomfort. Don't forget to reward your pup with treats during the 'boot breaking-in' phase!
🐾 If boots aren't their style, try paw balms or even Vaseline to create a protective barrier.
💦 Remember to wipe off any residues when you get back inside, ensuring your furry friend enjoys winter walks without a worry.
We wish you a wonderful and safe winter season!
