Big boy Finn came in for an annual exam, and can be a bit of a nervous nelly. After some treats and sweet talking, he was Dr. Sampson's best friend! He had a great visit and that will help him be less stressed when he comes back in the future!

To All Of Our Valued Clients:

We strive to keep fees affordable while sourcing the best products and supplies to ensure we deliver the high-quality veterinary care you are accustomed to and deserve. However as of January 9th, 2023 we will be increasing our prices. This is in response to inflation, and the increased prices from the vendors we purchase from. I understand this may be frustrating, but we promise that we will continue to provide the highest quality medicine and services to your loved ones.

Sincerely,

Dr. John Sampson
Owner/Veterinarian

Early Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays!!

We will be closed on Monday, December 26th, but will otherwise be open normal hours throughout the holidays.

With the holidays comes all the rich foods/presents/decorations. All of these things can pose different issues with your loved ones. Please take care and be safe!

If your pet has an emergency, please call the ER ahead of time to see if they are open/what are the wait times. BluePearl Levittown (old VSEC) is the only BluePearl hospital open 24/7 throughout the holidays and will likely have long wait times. Driving to NorthStar or Metropolitan could possibly save you a lot of time, if not a true emergency. Please refer to our website for different emergency hospital options.

Thank you to everyone that came out to see Santa! Here are some of the pictures we took during the event. We really enjoyed this, and plan on doing it again next year!

The day is almost upon us for Santa Paws! Saturday at 12pm we will be starting, and there is a tent set up that you will see when you drive up. We will be collecting donations for different rescue groups during this time, so please bring anything you can!

Guidelines for Saturday:
1) Please park near the entrance for RVH or towards 2nd Street Pike, not down by the tent.
2) First Come First Serve and remember to bring your own camera or just use your cell phone.
3) When you arrive, please leave your pets in the car to come sign up to let us know you are here. Then you can sit in your car until we call you.
4) Once you get your call, you can bring the family up to the tent and wait in line there for your turn.
5) Once you take your pictures, we will have you exit out a different side.

We are only going to have a few families in line at a time to keep animal interactions to a minimum. This will help with having less distractions for the animals to hopefully get that great picture with Santa!

We are very excited to offer this, and we will try to give you ideas of potential wait times when you arrive.

See you Saturday!!!

An early Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! We wanted to let everyone know that we will be closed Thursday for Thanksgiving, however we will be holding normal hours Wednesday and Friday.

With all of the extra company and savory foods around during this holiday, please keep your pets safety in mind as well. We don't want to be making an impromptu visit to us or the ER because they got into the trash or leftovers.

Have an amazing and safe Thanksgiving!

Even though it is "winter", our climate here doesn't allow fleas/ticks to go into hibernation. They are out year round here, and only need 40 degrees to make appearances.

We have seen multiple flea and tick infestations recently, and we want to make sure you don't have to deal with that issue either.

Please stay on your heartworm/flea/tick preventatives year round to keep all the little parasites away for good!

Everyone here at RVH sends out a HUGE thank you to everyone who has served our country.

Cleaning your pets teeth is VERY important to their long term health and quality of life. Dental wipes are a great substitute for toothbrushes because you can feel where you are wiping and how much pressure you are applying. This prevents accidental painful gum brushing that might occur when blindly using a toothbrush. Below are a few websites that discuss general ways to create a dental cleaning routine at home.
The main takeaways from these resources are: make it regular, don't rush (the longer it takes the more chance for success), make it fun, and have some delicious treats available for when you are finished!

Having our pups chewing on treats are a great way to help with fighting dental disease, however choosing the right one can be tricky. Choosing incorrectly can result in broken teeth, which occurs with hard chew treats (bully sticks, certain Nylabones, hooves, etc).

By going to the Veterinary Oral Health Council's website (http://vohc.org/accepted_products.htm), it will show you approved products by Veterinary Dentists that are the next best choice to physically brushing their teeth.

February is one of our dental health months! Are you pushing off getting your family member's teeth cleaned? Now is the time to jump on our 15% off dental services special for this month!
Getting your pet's teeth cleaned is very important to their health and general quality of life.

We will have multiple posts during February to help educate our RVH family on how to give the best care to your dog or cat's teeth.

Even though we are in our winter season, it does not mean that these little guys are sleeping. Until temperatures are consistently below 40 degrees, they will be active. Due to this rarely happening for extended periods of time in our region, we highly recommend year round flea/tick preventatives.
We have multiple great choices for you here at RVH! Please stop on by and protect your family members.

Belated Merry Christmas and Early Happy New Year!

We have a couple of important issues to discuss:

1) As you may have realized over the past few days, our phone system is currently not working. Our internet went down and we are in the process of working with our internet provider to correct the issue. We REALLY hope to have it fixed tomorrow, but will keep you all updated as soon as we have more information!

2) We will be requiring everyone to wear their masks inside the hospital again, and our staff members will be doing the same. With COVID cases increasing yet again, we ask you to do this so we can keep you and our staff as healthy as possible. We want to ensure that we will remain open to continue to care for your beloved pets!

Note: we will NOT being going back to curb-side appointments at this point and you all will still be allowed to come into the hospital for all appointments.

Thank you all for being SO patient with us during this time as we figure out our internet problems, and helping us keep RVH as healthy as possible!

With Christmas/New Years coming up, it is important to talk about noise aversion with our loved ones. At least 1/3 of all furry family members suffer from noise aversion (fireworks, thunderstorms, vacuums, etc). If one of your family members suffer from this, please don't hesitate to contact Dr. Sampson or Dr. Linn to discuss medical calming solutions to put them at ease during this very stressful time.

With Christmas and the Holidays upon us, please take the time to animal proof all decorations. Many different aspects of holiday decorations can cause different threats to our furry family member's health. Whether it's the cat chewing on the Christmas lights/plants, the dog counter surfing/trash diving, or either of them playing/eating ribbon - they can all pose possible serious health issues. Proper preparation can help skip that visit to the ER considering Christmas falls on the weekend this year.
