Margo, the ultimate Earth Day enthusiast! 🌿🐶 Whether she’s hiking the trails of Tahoe, sniffing wildflowers, or enjoying a good roll in the dirt, Margo knows that nature is best enjoyed paws-on! 🏔️🌲✨

Earth Day is a great reminder to appreciate and protect the beautiful planet we share with our furry (and not-so-furry) friends. Even the smallest actions can make a big difference in keeping our planet safe and beautiful for all creatures—two-legged and four!

How are you and your pets celebrating Earth Day? Share your favorite outdoor adventure pics below! 📸🐕🌎

Ethel and Oliver are hopping headfirst into the Easter spirit and have officially thrown their paws in the ring for the title of Cutest Easter Bunny Assistant! 🐰💜 With those irresistible ears, we’d say they’re both front-runners for the job!

We hope your Easter is filled with treats, tail wags, and plenty of snuggles. Don’t forget to keep those chocolate eggs out of paw’s reach! 🐣🚫🍫

This handsome golden boy has already stolen our hearts—and probably yours, too. Colby recently joined us after facing something unthinkable: he chewed off part of his own foot. Why? Because he couldn’t feel it. Colby is paralyzed, but you’d never know it from his golden grin and cool-dude laser goggles.

Thanks to your support, we can provide Colby the care he needs through weekly visits for ozone limb bagging and laser therapy to help heal what’s left of his foot and prevent further complications. He gets all the love (and all the snuggles) from our team, including Danielle and Dr. Brown—his personal cheer squad.

🦴 But here’s the real magic: Scoot to the Stars is saving lives like Colby’s every single week. Marie brings in at least 5 pets every week for their treatments—some for wounds, some for rehab, many for TLC and a second chance. These dogs are loved, they’re healing... and many of them are looking for their forever homes.

✨ When one gets adopted, that makes space for the next. Dogs like Colby can be rescued because someone opened their heart (and home) to one before him. Every adoption is a ripple of hope for the next Scoot pup waiting for their miracle.

🙏 Donations fuel all of this. They cover treatments, mobility equipment, transport, and the specialized care that most rescues simply can’t offer. When you donate to Scoot to the Stars, you’re saving lives.

Let’s keep this going. Let’s keep them scooting. 💫

We had a truly wise and wonderful patient visit us today—Archimedes the Eastern Screech Owl from Animal Ark Wildlife Sanctuary! 🦉💙 This little raptor may be small, but he’s got a big personality (and an even bigger fan club here at the clinic).
We were honored to give him top-notch care and a front-row perch in our exam room!

Animal Ark is reopening this Saturday after their winter break! By stopping by, you can meet amazing animals like Archimedes, learn about wildlife conservation, and support their mission through donations. Every little bit helps these incredible creatures thrive!

Meet Moose the Great Dane and Millie the Shih Tzu mix—two of our adorable patients who had the most heartwarming meet-cute in our lobby last week. 🐾💙

Marissa's labs, Yeti and Memphis, have one question... WHERE did the good weather go?! 🤨☀️❄️

They sniffed, they searched, and yet—no sunshine, no warm breeze, just betrayal. 😆 Hang in there, guys, spring is probably on the way... eventually.

Anyone else’s pets protesting the cold? Drop their grumpy weather faces in the comments!

That one hour of lost sleep hit us ruff... and our pets are NOT having it. 🥱🐾💤

As we all struggle to adjust, let’s take a moment to appreciate our MVPs—our sleepy, snoozing, totally-over-it team member pets. Whether they’re mid-nap, full-on snoring, or giving us the classic “Why are we awake right now?” look, they are mood.

Drop a pic of your pet’s post-time-change reaction in the comments! Let’s see who’s handling it best (or worst!). 😆

Just like Stoney is stopping to smell the tulips, take a moment to check if your pet is ready for your Spring Break plans! 🌷✈️

If your furry friend will be boarding while you're away, don’t forget to update their vaccines to keep them safe and healthy. 🏥 We offer nurse appointments 6 days a week to help you ensure your pet is protected with essential vaccines like Bordetella (kennel cough) and Canine Influenza.

📅 Don’t wait—schedule your pet’s appointment today so you can enjoy your trip worry-free! To book a nurse appointment, your pet must have had an annual exam within the past 12 months.

Meet Misty, our gorgeous feline friend who stopped by recently for her ultrasound with our visiting ultrasonographer! 💜🐱 Misty was the picture of elegance in her stylish purple harness and stole all of our hearts (as you can see, our lovely receptionist Laura is totally smitten!).

But Misty isn’t the only one stealing hearts—her adorable kittens have also been in to see us! 🐾💕 They’ve been just as charming as their mama, and we can’t wait to watch them grow into their own little royalty.

Sending Misty and her babies all the love and hoping for good news from her scan! 💕
