Ember’s first puppy visit was filled with comfort and care, and she even fell asleep in Vanessa's arms! We love seeing puppies relax and bond with us early on. Bringing your pup in helps ensure their health stays on track and strengthens your bond with them. Puppies are especially impressionable, so early visits provide a great opportunity to help them feel comfortable with our clinic and team. It’s amazing how much early bonding can shape their future experiences with the vet, creating trust and comfort for years to come! 💕🐾

Although Halloween has passed, we wanted to share this fun moment from October! 🎃👻 Our Willow Rock team knows how to bring some laughter to the clinic, and we loved seeing so many of you join in the fun by bringing your pets in their costumes! Your shared love for the season truly made this Halloween special, and we’re grateful to celebrate with you and your pets like family.

This is all part of our commitment to keeping spirits high—no matter the season. We believe that laughter and a positive atmosphere help our furry patients (and their owners) feel at ease during their visits. Thank you for being a part of our Halloween festivities! We’re excited for more moments of joy and healing this holiday season! 💫

When it was time for Daisy’s nail trim, we brought out the squeeze cheese to keep her happy and engaged. Her intense focus on the cheesy treat was adorable, and she barely noticed the nail trimming happening! Our team worked together to make sure the trim was smooth, and Daisy felt comfortable. We’ve got plenty of tricks to make nail trims stress-free, so if you need help with your pup’s nails, just let us know. Cheese and care are always on hand!

When we went to take a picture of Gannicus, he knew the assignment! Not only did he strike a pose, but he also gave us a big, happy dog smile! Gannicus was such a sweetheart during his visit, and he seemed eager to collect as many treats as possible for being such a good boy. It was our pleasure to reward him, and we loved spending time with this adorable cutie pie!

Our tiny friend Poppy came in for her very first puppy visit, and she made it clear that she wanted belly rubs—more, more, more, please! We loved how she flopped right over, relaxing in our care, and we were thrilled to shower her with affection. We’re excited to continue getting to know her as she grows and feel privileged to have this special opportunity to bond with her at such an early stage in life!

Pickles enjoyed some tasty cheese during her vaccine visit! 🧀 We used squeeze cheese on a tongue depressor to make the experience more enjoyable for her. Positive reinforcement, like offering treats, can really help reduce anxiety for our furry friends during vet visits.

You can use this same approach at home for activities like nail trimming! Find a treat your dog loves—whether it’s peanut butter or cheese—and let them focus on that while you work. We encourage teaming up with a family member or friend: one person can cuddle and offer the treat, while the other handles the trimming. This way, it becomes a fun and supportive experience for everyone!

We made sure Piper was all comfy and cozy before her spay surgery, surrounding her with soft blankets and her warm snuggy. She soaked up all the love and was such a good girl! Piper did an amazing job, and we’re so proud of her! ❤️

We took important time to honor not only our own late pets but also our clients' beloved companions for Día de los Mu***os. Our goal was to provide a space for healing, reflection, and appreciation through this meaningful tradition. We celebrated our late pets at Barktoberfest and used that opportunity to invite everyone to honor their pets during Día de los Mu***os. We are incredibly grateful to all who visited us at both events and shared their stories with us. Your participation means the world to us!

Wishing you and your pets a happy and safe upcoming Halloween from all of us at Willow Rock Pet Hospital! Here’s a snapshot of our team member Stacey’s dog, Ace, all dressed up as a ghost—and isn't it adorable? 🎃👻

As Halloween approaches, make sure your pets are safe and happy. If they’re out and about, consider having them wear something reflective, and keep Halloween treats like chocolate out of their reach. For our feline friends, create a cozy retreat away from the hustle and bustle, perhaps with a warm blanket fresh from the dryer to snuggle up with.

We’d love to hear how you and your pets celebrate—share your Halloween moments with us in the comments!

Little Oreo, our sweet munchkin kitty patient, arrived a little bit nervous for her visit. To help her feel comfortable and at ease, we made sure she was snug and safe by laying down a soft towel and holding her close. Cuddles and a calm environment made all the difference, turning her anxiety into cozy contentment. We're so glad to see her settle in and feel at home!

Dr. Dial knows how to get pups like Chewie (left) and Dobie (right) feeling relaxed by getting down on their level, offering cuddles, and creating a calm environment. It’s no surprise that Dobie broke into a big smile! We love this pair of Terrier/French Bulldog mixes and were so glad to see them happy and comfortable during their visit. 🐾😊

Oreo came in for his ear recheck, and we’re thrilled to see his infection has resolved. He was absolutely beaming with joy, and we couldn’t be happier to see him back to his cheerful self. A big thank you to Oreo’s owner for their dedication and follow-up care—it’s made all the difference in his recovery. Here’s to more happy, healthy days ahead for Oreo! 🐾💜

Gertie was all about those belly scratches during her vaccine booster visit! 🐱 Nestled comfortably in a cozy space with blankets, she was relaxed and content throughout her appointment. Ensuring that cats like Gertie feel secure and at ease during vet visits is crucial for their overall well-being.
