🐾Every day is bring your pet to work day when you work at a veterinary clinic. This week, we are going to give you a behind the scenes look into the lives of our clinic cats, Mooches & Kringle.
😻Patience is a virtue both our clinic cats, thankfully, possess. No matter what we throw at them, like hyperactive kittens, excitable dogs who haven't learned to use their inside voices, and the general chaos that comes with working with animals, both Kringle and Mooches maintain their cool *almost* all of the time. ✨
When owners ask why the appointment is taking so long. 🤪🤣

Muzzle Training Tips & Tricks with Dr. Jessica Bachmann
🐾Welcome back to Muzzle Training 101, Part 2 with Dr. Bachmann.
🐶If you watched part one, you already know that muzzle training is an important part of training for all dogs. It can be used to keep you and your pet safe during uncomfortable enounters of any sort, it can be used to prevent your pet from eating unsafe items on the street or in the woods, and it can provide peace of mind. 😎
✨Tag along with Dr. Bachmann and her pup Maisy to learn how you can start muzzle training your pet at home!
Muzzle Training 101 with Dr. Jessica Bachmann
🐾For many, the sight of a muzzle may bring anxiety. Is that dog mean? Do I need to worry about my pet's safety, or mine, around them? 😟
Contrary to popular belief, muzzle training is an important tool for any well-trained dog, and does NOT always mean that pet is reactive. Listen along to Dr. Bachmann as she helps to de-stigmatize using a muzzle for your pups 🐶
🫵Come back next Monday for part two: Muzzle training tips and tricks! 🐾

**Volume up!**
🐕Bruin is a 13+ year old lab, and one of the sweetest girls we know. She recently started on Librela, and her owner wanted to share her thoughts, in hopes it would help other clients who are looking to keep their best friends comfortable 🥰
"For the past three years I have been going up the stairs behind Bruin every night, to support her and boost her up the steps. Four weeks after starting Librela, she does the stairs without any help. I’m looking forward to seeing how she feels after three months!"🐶
If you find her story as incredible as we do, give us a call today to learn more about the Librela injection 🐾

Ty's Chiropractic & Acupuncture Journey
✨Chiropractic & Acupuncture Case Spotlight! ✨
🐕Ty is a 9 year old neutered male Boxer who has unfortunately been diagnosed with Degenerative Myelopathy. This is a condition of the spinal cord that results in progressive hind limb weakness and eventual paralysis. 🥺
Ty has been visiting Dr. Macomber since last summer 2022 for chiropractic care, and recently has been getting acupuncture treatments. His chiropractic sessions help to make him feel more comfortable and decrease pain associated with compensation on his front limbs. 🤩 As you can tell from the before and after videos, the acupuncture has really helped him be stronger with hind limbs and increase his proprioception (awareness of his limbs in space).
We are so happy for Ty’s progress, if you think your pet could benefit from chiropractic and acupuncture please call the office today! ✨
