Please meet our December Pet of the Month, George! 🐱🐾

George's nickname is Georgie Porgie!
George's favorite toy's are his jingle balls!
His favorite treat is dog food, of course! 😉🐶
A quirk of George's is that he is very loud and always has something to say! Meow!! ❣
What makes George unique? He goes out on a leash with the dogs when they go potty, and if he doesn't get to, he gets mad and yells at you.

Please meet our November Pet of the Month, Roger! 🐶🐾

A few of Roger's nicknames are Rogerator, (because he follows his Owner to the refrigerator) 😉 Rog-A-Roo, Puff-A-Lump, Little Bear, Rog-Podge and since he grew a large gray mustache, Tom Selleck!!

Roger's favorite toy is his little stuffed mammoth his brother gave him, but when it's time for a nap, he gets his monkey.🐒

His favorite treat is chicken, of course! 🐓

What makes Roger unique? He will do whatever you want to do. He is very loyal and polite. He will wait forever at the door to be let in before he'll bark to tell you to let him in. When he isn't able to jump or climb his doggy stairs, he'll patiently wait for you to notice he needs help.

Congrats Roger! 🥰 We think you are one handsome boy! ❤️ We hope you are enjoying your goodie bag! 🎁🎉🎈

Please consider helping to alleviate the financial burden & medical bills for our receptionist, Shannon. On Friday October 4th, Alva (Frankie), Shannon's fiancé, was in a terrible ATV accident, causing him to have multiple fractures; including cervical TP, spine, left rib and facial fractures. The most concerning injury is that of the brachial plexus. The brachial plexus is a network of nerves that controls the movement and feeling in the arm, hand, and shoulder. Trauma to his brachial plexus caused him to lose mobility and feeling in his left arm. At this time we are unsure what the future holds for Alva (Frankie). He has a long road to recovery in regaining normal function on his left side. Thank you for any support you may be able to offer ♥️

Please meet Dexter, our October Pet of the Month!!

A couple of Dexter's nicknames are Dex & Dexter Baby!

Dexter's favorite toys are the fuzzy balls we sell in the basket at our clinic (even better if they have catnip on them) AND he will actually play fetch!❤️

Dex's favorite treat is Shameless Pets Catnip & Chill crunchy treats... (We are sensing a catnip theme here!😉)

Dexter's owners found him when he was about 5 weeks old & they think because he was still so little, he loves to knead (like most kitties when they’re happy) & suckle. He especially loves soft/plush blankets but will sometimes start suckling on your hair. 🤣

Congrats Dexter! 🥰 We think you are one handsome boy! ❤️
Your goodie bag is ready for pickup anytime & his clinic credit is already on his account! 🎁🎉🎈

Please meet Macey Mae, our September Pet of the Month!

Macey has picked up many nicknames over the years. Her most popular one is neenee. Like her owners, who are avid tennis players, tennis balls will always be her favorite toy🎾. Her favorite treat is a Greenies dental treat - keeping her teeth and breath minty fresh. And of course she loves any nibble of food Dad ‘accidentally’ drops during dinner. Macey is a sunbathing and belly rubbing queen👑. As long as she is on someone’s lap she is happy puppy.

Congrats Macey! 🥰
